Black ebony bokken - Ebony is one of the non-European hardwoods. Its grain ranges from dark black to black and brown striped woods. It is characterized by its hardness and dense / heavy and is one of the most valuable types of wood.
Your hair is black as ebony" - each of us knows this sentence from the fairy tale "Snow White".
Ebony is mainly used for the construction of musical instruments, marquetry, chess pieces, veneers and high-quality art-turning. Even in mythology ebony is attributed a magical effect - it is to protect against evil spirits. Ebony is a symbol of noble beauty and announces a positive development. In magic, wands are often made of ebony.
From our own experience in the martial arts, I would not miss my ebony Bokken. It lies warm and supple in the hand and also the energy leads wonderfully into the top - with each cut.I am of the opinion - had Musashi had the opportunity to make his Bukutō from ebony - he would have quickly deviated from Japanese white oak.
All of our black Ebony Bokken are hand-crafted - each one is unique in its uniqueness - as unique as you.
