A WW2 era Japanese Jukenjutsu Jukendo Mokuju for army bayonet fighting training in the style of a mock wooden rifle
Jukenjutsu (the art of the bayonet) was a Japanese martial art developed at the beginning of the c20th for training soldiers in bayonet combat. Banned by the allies after WW2 it returned in the 1950s in the modern form of jukendo (the way of the bayonet) and is similar to Kendo but instead of swords uses the mokuju, a wooden mock rifle. This example is in excellent condition and measures 164 cm.
