We carry Kobudo weapons by Roger T Pratt on our websites. Roger is a Kobudo instructor and friend of my teachers teacher Ernest Estrada Sensei. I have had the honor of training and sparring with him on several occasions when he has visited our dojo. Roger is based out of Jackson michigan and works as part of the goon squad that helps get prisoners that don't want to leave their cells to do so. He has a ton of practical knowledge and is very respected in our area of the world.
Roger makes octagon bo and weapons that are of exquisite quality. He uses rare hardwoods like coco bola and ipe in order to make weapons that really take a pounding and are about the best I have ever seen next to Shureido. If you ever wanted a bo that would really impress the crowds he makes this coco bola bo that has a natural pattern mottle to it that I haven't seen anywhere else before.
Shorin Ryu people love this guy. I think that about says it.
