Kabutowari [F]Heavy_Weight Only SSP labeled are authorizedTetto Kabutowari Made in Japan Composition: Aluminum Zinc alloy, cotton cord wrapping Length: 47 cm Weight: ~670 g This Kabutowari is made of a hard aluminum zinc alloy, featuring a Tsuka wrapped in a cotton cord. It presents a fairly sharp tip but no blade, as it is not designed to cut or stab, but rather to crush.
