Camellia Oil - Tsubaki abura
Made in Japan (Isu Islands)
Ingredient: 100% Tsubaki Oil
Size: 70 mL (2,3 oz) / 118 mL (3.9 oz) / 1 L (33.8 oz) / 1.8 L (60.9 oz)
This oil has been produced on the island of Toshima (Isu Shoto), off Tokyo, for more than a century. It is used by many Japanese wood workers as well as specialists in ancient blade (shinken) who are looking for a more stable oil than the Choji oil.
The 70 and 118 mL are conditionned in glass bottles. 1 and 1.8 L are conditionned in metal cans. Cans are not available in stock and require about a week before shipping.
Treatment with Camellia oil is recommended by the craftsmen who make our wooden weapons. The regular oiling is necessary for unvarnished weapons. It is recommended also for the maintenance of Iaito and Shinken.
Utilization on wooden weapons:
Once every 2 months in the wet season, 2 times per month during dry season. For a better preservation of your weapons, it is advisable to carefully rub them with a dry cloth after each use. When you apply the oil, clean the wood surface by rubbing vigorously with a dry cloth, then apply the oil in a thin layer directly with the hand. Allow to dry.
If your weapons are not painted it will not be necessary to sand, but if they are, sanding will help the wood to absorb more oil.
Note that this Camelia oil is initialy intended for skin and hair care. We've selected this oil for it's unmatched quality: 100% pure camelia oil, no additive, cold pressed, cosmetic grade, almost odorless, and halal certified.

Deluxe Octagonal Nunchaku - Murasaki Kokutan or Sunuke
Made in Japan (Kyushu)
Murasaki Kokutan or Sunuke
With cord or chain
Available in 30 cm, 33 cm, 36 cm and 40 cmThe Nunchaku featuring a Hakkaku (or octagonal) shape shaft is the most common amongst Japanese Nunchaku. Made from exclusive Japanese wood, it is designed for intense Kobudo and Karate training.
The length can be chosen to fit your needs, for most practitioners this is between 30 cm and 40 cm. Hence, we provide this model in 4 different sizes.Sunuke and Murasaki Kokutan are hard woods and can cause severe damage upon contact, but on the other hand, they are less resilient and break more easily than oak. Therefore this exotic timber models are not recommended for contact practice. Please note that those models cannot be carved with the grip lines (Suberidome) due to the hard density of the wood.
- Choice of wood species: Murasaki Kokutan (Purple Ebony) or Sunuke
- Available finish: Urethane varnish or camellia oil polish
- Manufacturing workshop: Horinouchi for all models
Non varnished - Oil polish option:
All our high-end weapons are available either varnished with urethane or polished with camellia oil. The latter is more pleasant to the touch and these unvarnished weapons are also more ecologically-friendly, but they require regular (monthly) maintenance with oil (camellia or wood maintenance oil). Further, they can only be made from the finest timber of Japanese quality. Given the need for maintenance, our stocks are limited. Also, since the craftsmen must select the best wood possible to manufacture these Bokken and Jo, the processing time is longer than for varnished weapons. Please note that the oil polish can darken the wood significantly.
