Laminated Oak
The Tetsubo or Kanabo is a Japanese war club used by the strongest samurai. It is often associated with the mythical oni. Our hand made octagon Tetsubo is made of laminated oak slabs embedded with steel rivets. This massive weapon can weigh over 10 lbs and are custom made to your specifications. This is the Kanabo shown on Spike TV Deadliest Warrior Viking vs Samurai . After seeing the slow motion video, we worked to improve the mounting of the steel rivets. After testing several methods (and losing a lot of rivets), our latest test showed rivet retention going from approximately 70% to 99%. This change has made this a truly functional weapon of awesome proportions.
