| | The MDC targets seem to be the same overall diameter and length as that which I'm used to cutting, regardless of the slightly thinner grade used. | | | As an instructor in a kenjutsu style (shinkendo) that incorporates tameshigiri in it's curriculum, I am relieved to find a company finally specializing in the importing of traditional makiwara to North America and wish them luck and longevity. | | | I've cut several dense targets repeatedly with the Paul Champagne, but have not yet developed the same sense of metallurgical confidence with the Kotetsu yet. |
