CHANBARA WEAPONS

Pictures of some of the ActionFlex™ products available.  The padded portions of the weapons are covered in nylon (standard choices are red and black).  The pictures may vary from current models as improvements continue to be made to the equipment.

Samurai Sports, Ronin Products, and Century Martial Arts sell ActionFlex™ weaponry and accessories.  Visit their websites for current prices.  Headgear and a short sword are recommended as a starting set.

If you'd like to try Chanbara and live in or around the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles, CA send us an e-mail and we'll let you know where our next occasional free session will be.  Michael Langewisch is a certified Chanbara Instructor with the United States Chanbara Federation.
