Sizes and style of shinai vary. For example, an adult may be able to use a shinai that is too heavy for a younger person, so shinai with different sizes and characteristics are made. Shinai are available in many styles and balances. A shinai should not be confused with a bokutō, which has a much more similar shape and length to a Japanese sword and is made from a single piece of wood. However, both shinai and bokken are used in kendo.

The slats of a shinai are usually made from dried bamboo. Some may also be treated by smoking them, or soaking them in resin. Shinai slats are also made of carbon fibre, reinforced resin, or other approved alternative materials.

The shinai comprises four slats たけ (竹?, take), which are held together by three leather fittings: a hilt, or handle fitting つかがわ (柄皮?, tsuka-gawa), a fitting at the tip さきがわ (先皮?, saki-gawa) and a leather strip なかゆい (中結?, nakayui) that binds the four slats. All are secured with a string つる (弦?, tsuru).

The nakayui is tied about one-third of the length of the exposed bamboo from the tip . This holds the slats together and also marks the proper kendo striking portion of the shinai, or datotsu-bu (打突部, だとつぶ?).

Inserted between the ends of the slats, under the saki-gawa, is a plastic plug さきごむ (先ゴム?, saki-gomu), and under the tsuka-gawa there is a small square of metal (ちぎり?, chigiri), that holds the slats in place.

A hand-guard つば (鍔?, tsuba) is then fitted at the point where the tsuka-gawa ends and the bamboo slats begin. This is held in place by a rubber ring つばどめ (鍔止め?, tsuba-dome).

Bogu = protective armor. Kendo Bogu consists of 4 parts: Men (helmet), Kote (gaunlets), Do (breastplate), Tare (hip protector).

Depending on the instructor's discretion, it can be 3-6 months, sometimes longer. You will start out wearing the Tare (hip protector) and Do (breastplate), later adding Kote (gaunlets) then finally Men (helmet).

Kendo armor or Bogu consists of four pieces: the helmet (men), the body protector (doh), the gloves (kote), and the hip and groin protector (tare).

When viewed side by side it is easy to see how modern Kendo armor design is fashioned after the Oyoroi of the Samurai.

 

Kendo bogu/kendo armour/kendo pretector

In this first installment we will look at the Men, Doh, and Tare.

Materials
What are the materials of kendo armor? Modern and traditional materials are used in the making of armor. These include but are not limited to: bamboo, leather, animal hair, metal, plastic, and cloth.

Stitching
Kendo armor is sewn in one of two ways, hand, machine or a combination of both. Most of the sets you will see are machine stitched. Hand stitching is very labor intensive and expensive. Because of this most kendoists do not use handmade bogu for everyday practice, but instead save them for special occasions.

Quality of stitching.

Machine stitching is measured in millimeters between rows of stitches. This space generally ranges from 8 mm to 2.5 mm. Hand stitching is measured in the Japanese system of bu and sun. 2 bu is about equal to 6 mm. Handmade armor stitching is measured as 2, 1.5, 1.2 and 1 bu. 1.5 would be 1 bu 5 sun.


Men
The Men is the only thing which comes between the head and the shinai. It is a very important piece of equipment, as you can imagine. The two major components of the men are the menbuton, the long piece of padding and the mengane, the metal grill. The menbuton like the other pieces is a combination of materials. Sewn inside it may be padding made of felt, cotton, and/or wool. The edges are bound with leather and along the front edge there may also be decorative stitching/braiding. It is all stitched together by hand or machine. The menbuton provides more than adequate protection against correct kendo strikes. There are even men and kote available with sorbothane, and at the high-end titanium strips are embedded.

The face liner and throat protectors are attached to the mengane then the menbuton is attached by sewing and leather lacing.

Mengane

The mengane is typically one of two materials: Titanium or Duralumin, a lightweight aluminum alloy that contains copper, magnesium, and manganese. The old mengane were a nickel-iron alloy that was quite heavy. Duralumin mengane are quite light, but will bend under repeated missed strikes. Titanium has nearly the strength of steel but half the weight. There are also mengane that are both duralumin and titanium. On these the upper bars (where the striking occurs) are titanium while the rest is duralumin. For those who want to go hi-tech there are even titanium mengane designed with the center of gravity shifted upwards and inwards towards the face. Ceramic mengane are also available. What you choose is a matter of preference, quality and price.

Doh
The two major pieces of the doh are the mune, the decorative leather top and the doh-dai, the hard shell. Traditional material for the doh-dai is bamboo. The fiber doh was introduced in the 1960's by a paper company. The fiber doh is often thought of as fiberglass, but it isn't. It is a type of Japanese paper mache that is very dense and durable. Plastic/nylon dohs are also now available as a less expensive alternative to the bamboo doh.

Modern bamboo doh have 43 to 64 staves. Doh of 80 and 120 staves have been made as well. The staves are cut, shaped and then put together with cords through the side of the staves and tied off at the back edge. Leather is then glued over the bamboo, the holes drilled, and then sent off to be lacquered. Old style doh were staves of bamboo strung together with leather cord.

Here are some pictures of the doh being made.

The cord being tightened up to form the doh.

Tare
The tare is the one piece of armor that is probably the least paid attention to. It is hardly noticeable except for the fact that the nafuda has a Kendoist's name on it. It has the important role of protecting your hips acting in concert with the doh. Like the menbuton it is constructed of layers of padding, cloth, and leather. It has 6 major pieces, the haraobi (belt), 3 ohdare (large flap), and 2 kodare (small flap). The wakihimo (tying cords) attach to the haraobi. Tare range from the very plain to highly decorated.
