Wooden Kama

Wooden Kama for weapon-on-weapon training.  Oak sides, reinforced with a 12 mm plywood blade. Hand made in the UK, sold as a pair.

A Wooden Kama design unique to Seaholme Carpentry.  Built around a high quality beech plywood section extending the full length of the handle.  Two pieces of oak form the handle sides, which are shaped to the same dimensions as the Metal Kama.

This design overcomes a problem common to some wooden kama, whereby the join between blade and handle is fatigued and becomes loose.  Whilst the mortice and tenon is a very strong joint, the blade is not thick enough for this task.
