This review is from: Natural Wood Tonfas - Set of two (Misc.)

First off, I'm a Martial Artist who picked this up on the cheap in hopes of replacing a battered and worn pair I had before hand. Obtaining these, I was initial impressed by there quality wood craftsmenship. Not the best, but good enough. Then after twirling them around, I noticed the issue. The weight difference between the two tonfas are different. One is a good 1-2 pounds heavier then the other. It's enough to feel noticeable in your hands and just enough to screw up.

I looked for a return, but with shipping costs added in, I decided just to forgo an RMA return and just keep them.

They look nice on my wall but they're in no way tourney usable. If you're a training pair, this isn't it.
