All Japan Budogu (New ALL JAPAN PITCH) (All Japan Pitch) 2023 Late Model Kanto Style M Size Made in Japan Deer Hair, Made in Japan Cotton, 7000-count Bushu Indigo-dyed Cotton Fabric Specification (Saitama), Made in Japan TORAY Ultrasuede, Made in Japan SEIKO Special Sewing Machine Stitching Weight: Right 218g, Left 214g User's Palm (Current): Length 18.0cm, Circumference 20.0cm No problem with the size (broken in and kneaded) Purchased new 2 years ago (after indigo dyeing improvement) Kote strings have not been cut No holes in the palm leather, almost no wear Number of uses (without gloves): about 5 times (2 hours total) Purchased for a 3rd year junior high school boy, finally used this spring. Selling because I switched to different kote. I also purchased and used the same ones. (I have listed them) The angle of the scooped construction is slightly sharper than the Mitsuboshi "Tora/Michi" series, and the left fist fits well. The delicate grip is impressive, and it feels like you're tightening with each individual finger with bare hands. Due to the characteristics of Ultrasuede, there is little play in the response to sword handling, and it comes back directly, so it might be suitable for matches. (As a rough person, this is where I couldn't get used to it) If you want average functionality, it would be "Kyushu Style", but "Kanto Style" boasts durability, and the kote futon is thick and hard, so it doesn't hurt. (I also have a very practical type, but the manufacturer says it's not for practice, and it hurts like crazy)
