Description

Available at MMABOXING, the SMAI Foam Training Shoto 71cm is a purpose-built safe short sword that makes traditional sword training accessible and secure for martial artists of all levels.

Constructed around a solid plastic inner tube, this training shoto is wrapped in a dense foam outer layer that absorbs impact and significantly reduces the risk of injury during practice.
