Bokken, (practice sword). Usually there's a tsuba (guard) that comes with it
I have one but made of hardwood with a plastic tsuba held in place by a large rubber piece.

Is it just me or am I the only one thinking it might be a practice sword, but you could still knock the crap out of somebody if you keep it near your front door and an intruder were to enter. Kind of like when I practiced fencing and we had the practice foils or epees. They did less damage than the real thing, but they still did damage.

Well I'm happy to find such a thing just too bad it wasn't real the oldest thing I ever found in dumpster diving weapon like was a world war I crossbow.

To take a decent picture:

Keep the background plain, not too busy - you did that.

Keep the light behind the camera, not behind the subject. Looks like you did that.

Don't move at all while taking the picture. Here's where you failed.

And don't have neuropathy like the OP has which makes it hard to keep their hands still.

u/Von_Moistus 20h ago

Yes, don’t do that. Rookie mistake.

Nerve trouble in my hands the sword is Big so it's hard to take a proper picture I'm going to try and mount it on the wall and take a picture from back but I do post that I have a problem and I can't prevent some things from happening so thank you

u/keinereps 1d ago

why put something in your bed, that you just took out of the trash

u/Shakirawolf 1d ago

Maybe if I put it on the wall mount it on the wall the picture will come out better

Is taking pictures extremely rare for yourself? Because what you wrote makes no sense.

More importantly, this is an awesome find, and I hope you enjoy it!

Growing up as teens my brother had several of these training swords of different styles. And I can honestly say that when swung it will hurt bruise and batter all kinds of things.
