Octagon Metal Martial Arts Sai Multi Size（Black and Silver）

These are exactly what is advertised: a pair of sai at an affordable price. They will work well for training or sparring. The weight is good and well distributed, they seem to be extremely durable, and the wrap on the handles doesn't seem likely to unwind over time. I kinda wish i had gone with the 18" ones instead of the 21" model, and i think the black finish would probably hold up better over time than the chrome. I'm not sure if it's polished solid steel or nickel plated, but i think they're nickel plated which means the finish may chip over years of sparring. Overall though, they are sturdy and attractive, and they will absolutely do everything a sai is supposed to do (which for the record is mainly blocking and catching swords). These are real sai: they are blunt, defensive tools. So to everyone who grew up watching ninja turtles and thinking sai are sharp, pointed offensive weapons... you're better off getting a pair of daggers. But if you want some quality real sai, these are it.

Karate mom here. My son takes a weapons class that rotates weapons every six months or so. This spring he had sai classes. I knew nothing about these weapons except one of the mutant ninja turtles used them. After doing some research, the way to make sure you are getting the right size is to measure the length of the forearm on each arm and buy the size of sai that is closest to the measurement. Rounding up (17" to 18") is better than rounding down. These are less expensive than ordering them through my son's dojo or other martial arts catalogs. Pro-tip for all you karate parents out there: wrap a small bit of painter's tape (the blue or green tape) on the bottom of the sai and use sharpie to write their initials on their sai, as they all pretty much look the same and can be easily mixe up during classes or in locker rooms.

Great quality. Very well made. My nephew absolutely loved them.

These were nice and durable. Every bit as good as we had hoped

Bought these sai as a practice backup pair while developing my kobudo skills. They are solid, well balanced, and seem like well made sai for the money. Haven't dropped them or done partner work yet, so we'll see down the road. I've handled pricey, traditional sai and these offer the genuine feel. I definitely recommend them.

They are nice and heavy. My son loves them.

Feels great in the hands, wonderful construction and excellent balance.

The media could not be loaded. Got these for a Halloween costume party for my Elektra costume and 10/10, so nice and looked dope w my costume. Everyone loved them. Definitely measure your forearm before purchasing though as I got them alittle too big.
