Camellia Oil - Tsubaki abura
Made in Japan (Isu Islands)
Ingredient: 100% Tsubaki Oil
Size: 70 mL (2,3 oz) / 118 mL (3.9 oz) / 1 L (33.8 oz) / 1.8 L (60.9 oz)
This oil has been produced on the island of Toshima (Isu Shoto), off Tokyo, for more than a century. It is used by many Japanese wood workers as well as specialists in ancient blade (shinken) who are looking for a more stable oil than the Choji oil.
The 70 and 118 mL are conditionned in glass bottles. 1 and 1.8 L are conditionned in metal cans. Cans are not available in stock and require about a week before shipping.
Treatment with Camellia oil is recommended by the craftsmen who make our wooden weapons. The regular oiling is necessary for unvarnished weapons. It is recommended also for the maintenance of Iaito and Shinken.
Utilization on wooden weapons:
Once every 2 months in the wet season, 2 times per month during dry season. For a better preservation of your weapons, it is advisable to carefully rub them with a dry cloth after each use. When you apply the oil, clean the wood surface by rubbing vigorously with a dry cloth, then apply the oil in a thin layer directly with the hand. Allow to dry.
If your weapons are not painted it will not be necessary to sand, but if they are, sanding will help the wood to absorb more oil.
Note that this Camelia oil is initialy intended for skin and hair care. We've selected this oil for it's unmatched quality: 100% pure camelia oil, no additive, cold pressed, cosmetic grade, almost odorless, and halal certified.
Prices vary depending on selected options.

Material: cow leather
Tsubadome (rubber ring) optional (white or brown).
Size: ~9 cm (~7 mm thick)
Round tsuba made of thick leather for classic Bokken. Leather is a natural, "living" material, slight differences in the shape of the tsuba and its color are possible. The emphasis is not placed on the appearance but it is an excellent model to effectively protect your hands!
This is the model we recommend to practitioners looking for a big leather Tsuba to fit a standard/deluxe Bokken or a thick koryu bokken. This round tsuba is the largest of our catalog and the center hole is cut either for Standard/Deluxe Bokken or for the Onoha Itto Ryu Bokken. It can be recut on the inside to be adapted to the Keishi Ryu Bokken, the Iwama Ryu and Takemusu Bokken as well as the Hokushin Itto Ryu or the Jigen Ryu Bokken.
This Tsuba cannot be fitted on thin Koryu Bokken (Yagyu, Yagyu Shinkage, Niten Ichi Ryu, etc.).
Onoha Itto Ryu Shoto must be fitted from the standard hole size (Onoha hole size is adapted for the Bokken).
Please note that the Tsuba is shipped in its original shape. If you would like the Tsuba to be fitted with a particular weapon in your order, please specify it via the comment box of the shopping cart page.

Ono Ha Itto Ryu Bokken - White Oak
Made in Japan (Kyushu)
Rounded Spine | Flat Butt | Short Kissaki
White Oak availableThis Bokken is made from a single piece of white oak and carved on the southern islands of Kyushu (Japan). Slightly shorter than a standard Bokken, but also thicker and heavier, this model is suited for Ono Ha Itto Ryu Kenjutsu practitioners. This model is not suited for general practice but is particularly interesting for hard contact practice.
With this model, we recommend the use of a round leather Tsuba (to be fitted by the customer).
- Choice of wood species: white oak
- Available finish: Standard Finish or Seido Special Finish.
- Manufacturing workshop: Aramaki for all models.
We also offer a short version of this model, the Ono-Ha Itto Ryu Shoto.
This Bokken is also available in the Ono-Ha Itto Ryu Bokken & Shoto [Daisho Set].Finish options:
In 2021, with concerns for the workers, all workshops greatly reduced the number of urethane-varnished weapons and replaced the finish with "Candle Wax". Seido is now transitioning to a new finish offer for the majority of its weapons.
Standard Finish: At Seido, we complete the workshop finish with Camelia oil treatment by default. This is the standard Seido finish.
We do not apply any additional polishing for this finish, so some weapons might have a slightly rough surface.
For maintenance, we recommend that you oil your weapons about once a month with a vegetal-based oil.Seido Special Finish: For this special Finish, we first apply a Camelia oil polish (oiling and sanding the weapons with oiled sandpaper), then we finish the weapon with high-quality beeswax. This finish makes the wood as smooth as it can be and guarantees excellent protection for several months.
For maintenance, we recommend at least to oil your weapons every month or so. You can also apply wax a few hours after oiling your weapons (if some oil remains on the wood, remove it with a piece of cloth or tissue).Ono Ha Itto Ryu Bokken Specifications Wood Shirakashi (White Oak) Weight 650 ~ 750 g Full length 98 cm Blade length 73.5 cm Tsuka length 24.5 cm Tsuka diameter 38 x 29 mm Mine Marumine (round spine) Tsuka shape Taira (flat butt) Kissaki Short Kissaki *Due to the hand-made manufacturing, color, and weight may vary from one weapon to another.
About Ono-Ha Itto Ryu School:
The original Itto Ryu, founded by Ito Ittosai Kagehisa in the later 16th century, has today disappeared but its techniques and legacy are still alive in many styles such as the Ono-Ha Itto Ryu, Mizoguchi Ha Itto Ryu, Hokushin Itto Ryu and many more. The Ono-Ha Itto Ryu is the oldest of those schools and was founded by Ono Jiroemon Tadaaki right after he succeeded Ittosai. More duel-oriented, Ono was known to be an amazing swordsman but a very difficult person, and although he shared the role of instructor of the Shogun with Yagyu Munenori (Yagyu Shinkage Ryu), his character played against him in favor of Yagyu. Ono Ha Itto Ryu focuses on unarmored fighting and is famous for its training with "Onigote", an enormous protective glove that can stand direct strikes of a Bokken. Although the transmission quickly left the Ono family, it has an uninterrupted lineage that guarantees the historical accuracy and efficiency of its techniques.
It is interesting to note that Ono-Ha Itto Ryu is fully integrated into Takeda Sokaku's Daito Ryu school. Since Takeda was the main teacher of Morihei Ueshiba, founder of Aikido, it is often said that Ono-Ha had a significant influence on Aikido. It is, however, neither officially confirmed nor denied that Ueshiba did learn Ono-Ha Itto Ryu from Takeda Sokaku. Besides, Ueshiba never taught Ono-Ha Itto Ryu and studied various other Kenjutsu styles, which makes the true influence of the Ono-Ha Itto Ryu on Aikido difficult to evaluate. -
