Tsukagawa Standard for Shinai - Meirin
The
Tsukagawa is the leather covering of the shinai at the position of the handle (Tsuka) which allows a secure seizure of the Shinai.
The standard Tsukagawa is equipped with a
Ginshikumi, a reinforced leather link to tighten the Tsukagawa, and tie the Tsuru.
This "standard" quality leather is higher than the classic quality which increases its lifespan, and allows a more adjusted grip.
