Wikipedia definition
3. Bokken​A bokken (木剣, bok, "wood", and ken, "sword") (or commonly as bokutō 木刀 in Japan), is a Japanese wooden sword used for training. It is usually the size and shape of a katana, but is sometimes shaped like other swords, such as the wakizashi and tantō. Some ornamental bokken are decorated with mother-of-pearl work and elaborate carvings. Bokken should not be confused with shinai, practice swords made of flexible bamboo.
