Description
 
This Hand Made Jissengata Dobari-style Shinai has the weight and balance centred towards the hands, making the tip light and maneuverable. This style is favoured by many top level players in Japan and across the World. This particular model is made by hand to produce the very best balance, and is ideal for match use.

Toyokuni-jinja

Toyokuni is named after Toyokuni-jinja, a shrine in Higashiyama in Kyoto. Toyokuni-jinja is the official tomb and shrine of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Nobles, priests, warriors, and townspeople gathered at the shrine to celebrate the anniversary of Hideyoshi's 'divinity' with banquets, musical recitals, and boisterous festivity. However, Toyokuni-jinja was closed by Tokugawa Ieyasu in June 1615 "to discourage these unseemly displays of loyalty to a man he had eclipsed.". It was restored and expanded by the Emperor Meiji in 1868.
 
IMPORTANT
The Consumer Product Safety Association (CPSA) in Japan specializes in the quality control of potentially dangerous consumer goods. Only quality assured products are allowed to bear the SG Mark, which meet the Japanese government standards in line with Consumer Product Safety Law. Unlike other quality assurance stickers found on Shinai, the SG Mark is not awarded from a collective group of Kendogu manufacturers and retailers, rather it is a government approved seal that ensures products have met strict legal quality standards. 
 
As well as on Shinai, the SG Mark can be found on various products which have the potential to endanger human life - including bicycles, baby carriers, motorcycle helmets, climbing equipment and much more. For official information (PDF) about the SG Mark and the CPSA click here.
