Of course, while ZNKR now has a standard bokuto, there's plenty of koryu with varying 'standard' bokuto (and others without a standard definition).

Since this thread is about the difference in length between bokuto and shinai in kendo, how is that relevant? I don't think anyone is asking why shinai of Kashima Shin Ryu aren't the same size as bokuto from Tennen Rishin Ryu, are they?
