A suburito was never intended for combat rather it's intended to build ones strength & timing! In this way you can hold the lighter katna without feeling fatigue

Initially looking at this Suburito, I expected it to be like a Boken, light and fast. It isn't. However, that's not to say I don't like it. Its extra heft makes it much harder to block and a much more effective training tool. If you want to build up some arm muscles to use a Katana, or you just want more heft than a Boken, this is a great pick!

I practice with my friends daily using these instead of your common boken. We use them as if we were actually fighting for our lives and have yet to break one. Being a sword fanatic and spending a couple years learning to use a blade under a well trained teacher, I would suggest this over any boken any day!

Fits great in the hand, Lightweight, Strong!
