If you want to train with the same targets as a Japanese dojo uses, these are the wara for you. They are generally stiffer and harder to cut than our Mugen Dachi tatami and recommended if you plan to compete or test in Japan. They are generally heavier and are a much higher grade than our new tatami. 

They are also easier to spike on a target stand and can be much more challenging to cut. Because they are used and comprised of several different grades of tatami omote, they are much less consistent than our new tatami omote. Some are practically new while others are well used. They require additional soak time and should be soaked for at least 24 hours. You will need to check for staples and other debris since these have been previously used as flooring in Japan. 

We will make sure you don't get any partial or rotted mats, but quality can vary.
