Tonfa & Nunchaku
Our Selection of Wooden Tonfa & Nunchaku
The wooden weapons proposed by Seido are manufactured by one of the last traditional workshops in the south of Japan, in the region of Miyakonojo (Kyushu) (learn more about the workshops on our Artisans Presentation Page).
Our Nunchaku & Tonfa are all produced by the Aramaki workshop, which has the most extensive catalog for those weapons.
Nunchaku are mainly used in Okinawan Kobudo and Karate. It is believed to have its origins in a farmer tool used to thresh rice or soybeans.
Our models are perfectly suited for any type of Japanese Budo practice. Please note that our Nunchaku are Japanese Nunchaku and therefore do not feature ball-bearing connections. They are made to be used in the context of Budo practice and will not withstand high speed artistic Nunchaku practice.
The Tonfa is also a Japanese weapon mainly used in Okinawan Kobudo and Karate, and as the Nunchaku, it developed from a farmer tool, a millstone handle. Tonfa are mostly used in pairs, however, we do sell them by unit so that you can replace a single damaged piece.
