Hyaku,

I've heard stories that most shinai and bogu are not really japanese made. They just produce it on korea or china and take it to japan to stamp that cute little label on them, but do you mean it's for real?

It seems that only 'madake' bamboo shinai and tezashi bogu are completely japanese, is it so?
