Anyone have any insight into the quality, or lack thereof of these www.coldsteel.com/bokkens.html ? Specifically the hand and a half? the rest of their products are iffy at best so I was just wondering if these were the same.

The bokken are "ok", but the hand and a half is an ungainly club. The pommel also digs into my hand.

I don't really like their bokken. I tried them because of the "tough and maintenance free" aspect, but they are not stiff enough. They are just too "bouncy" and "bendy". Doing two-person drills with them just feels odd and wrong.
I have not tried the western models, but I imagine they might have the same problem. The material is just not stiff enough...

The hand'n'half is pretty poorly balanced... I can't speak to the other models.
