[2023 Latest Edition] Popular Kendo Bamboo Swords for College Students and Men

・Standards for university female and general female shinai

Female university students and general women will choose a bamboo sword from the 39 (sanku) size range.

It seems that female university students and ordinary women tend to choose straight swords and old-style bamboo swords more often than men.

Of course, some people prefer the doubari style of the shinai. However, women who have less muscle mass tend to have a sharper edge to the tip.

It seems that using a bamboo sword with a good center of gravity ensures the strength of the strike.

Please refer to the image below for size details.
