Choken (Katana) Chanbara Foam Sword

From the world of "Chanbara" - the Japanese Sword Sport - this Choken (Katana) Foam Sword features a flexible center core with soft absorbing EVA foam covering and a durable ABS handle, allowing you to spar at full speed with no holding back, and needing only the bare minimum of protective equipment (helmet and eye protection are highly recommended).

Chanbara, also known as 'Spochan' in Japan, was created in the 1970s by Tetsundo Tanabe, a security company executive and Kendo expert from Yokohama. The goal, to promote a free-form sport similar to Kendo, but free of its extremely strict and lengthy code of rules. Just one hit anywhere on the body decides the match.
