Hi Kaoru... Apologies for communicating like this...

I got your PM but couldn't send a response as your inbox is full.

Regarding the Shinai... It sounds as if you prefer size 39... is that right?

Just send me the address...

Regarding a manual... I always recommend the Kendo Reader by Noma which is available for download in lots of places on the web. my favourite version can be downloaded from:www.osi.uio.no/kendo/pdf/Noma.pdf The title and first page are in Norwegian, but the rest is English...!

Hope this is helpful... please keep me posted and let me know if there is any other way I can support you...

Cheers
