Re: Purchasing a Bokken.
don't know anything about nf
I do battodo (swordsmanship) along with aikido. I have a purple heart wood bokuto(much nicer sword). It is excellent as a bokuto for training in kata, however, it does NOT make a good impact sword (mostly because of the cost, 140$ yikes! don't want to be hitting it against anything) if you're just looking for something to bash around, I highly recomend japanese white oak or ipe.
Hope this helped.
