ゆうたんぱぱ 5 This is a good item that stimulates my samurai spirit so that I can carry on exercising.It's hard to keep my motivation up with barbells or dumbbells because they're boring. I feel the weapon-like shape is essential for me to maintain exercise.It's an excellent point that there is a hole to thread a string around the pommel, so you can prevent throwing the sword if you loop the string around your wrist.There're burrs on edge around the upper hilt, so I wrapped them in a handkerchief.Furthermore, you might want to use bar tape.
