I Love the quality of everything I have purchased through Budo. Also I never have to wait to long for them to deliver items.
THERE Grrr8 !!!!

Beautifully crafted. Feels nice and hefty in hand.

This thing is sick. I got its light-weight brother, the Alloy, and love carrying it because you don’t know you have it.
Won’t have that problem with the brass. This thing is a beast. You’ll know you have it—and were you to ever use it—the person at the receiving end would never forget it. A bladed weapon wouldn’t disable an attacker as fast. This is a monster.
But, in repose, a genuine beauty. Deep and rich and beautifully etched. A fine piece, elegantly machined and made.
And the delivery is outstanding. Quick, and—not to give away anything, it’s lusciously wrapped in a memorable way.
Also, if there is an error (because, like me, you get really busy buying stuff from these guys for the holidays), their customer service is above and beyond. They will fix it, and leave you with an amazing impression.
Almost as amazing as the impression this Kobo might leave in an eye socket or sternum.
You can’t be disappointed with this.

It's great! It's got a really solid feel to it. I wasn't sure how deep the etching was going to go. I wouldn't mind if it went a bit deeper, but I tend to fidget and prefer things with a lot of tactile variety. Having said that, it does feel very nice, almost matte to the touch, and the whole product just -feels- elite, high quality.
I haven't been able to put it down ever since it arrived. I brought it to class with me, and I've been using it in place of a pointer.
And! It came with a free buff and paracord, which is a very nice touch. Cuts down on disposable packaging materials, and it's just thoughtful. The paracord is the perfect length to make a set of begleri, if you've got some lanyard beads lying around (and who among us doesn't?)
I'll absolutely be buying from them again. Great product, EXCEPTIONAL service.

Awesome and so detailed
Michael
This is absolutely beautiful and heavy, but not too heavy.
David J.
Well made a a great weight to it. Better for people with strong hands
Braeden M.
Phenomenal. Tend to get sweaty hands at times but the added grip on the kobo takes care of any possible slippage. Thanks guys, cheers

Good ordering process. Arrived in expected time. The build is solid and weighted. Looks great. I would not want to be on the receiving end of it. Thank you BB team.

when I got it I was surprised, it is truly perfect, no flaws, the design is incredible, the laser engravings are magnificent, it gives it an extremely elegant style, pure power, you can be very proud of your work.

Love the Kobo. I work in Public Safety and plan on keeping this with me on shift. It’s beautifully designed and made. A lot of care put into the packaging. The weight is perfect, if needed, this will do the job. I wish the design was put further into the Kobo, to create a grip. I would buy this again and recommend it as well.
Patrick B.
By far my favorite piece and new tool. I like the weight ratio and feel it has in your hands. The Kobo has many options much like the Punyo of my sticks. It can make a point!! or it can be brutal.
I would love to see a video that I can purchase using the Kobo. I can always learn something new.
Thanks

I bought this for my son for Christmas. He loved it. He has yet to put it down! Thank you .
Paul S.
Has a great weight. Can use it for leverage as well as a small hand weight to strengthen my wrist

Beautiful piece of kit feels and looks alive.
I will be buying the alloy version as well
Steven A.
Awesome product. The only thing I’d like to see is maybe some milling lines. It’s slippery with the added weight of brass. Other then that very good!
De Andre F.
The detail on the Kobo is amazing. I've purchased both the Bronze & the Alloy and suggest that everyone do the same! Amazing quality! The best part about the order was the customer service!! You will truly have no regrets!! They were amazing with doing an exchange for a different product. Professional, simple, and quick.
Casey G.
Fantastic Quality feels great in the hand
Richard L.
The weight and feel of the weapon is outstanding.
Brandon B.
Wonderful product!!! The presentation was absolutely stunning. The weight an heft of the kubo is impressive to say the least. It looks beautiful and the feel of it it is a pleasure. I definitely don’t want to receive a blow from this thing as it’s mass is more than enough to do the job. My only concern would be how well the laser etching holds up over time. I was hoping for slightly deeper etchings that might add to the tactile aspect. Looks incredilde but see potential of it loosing the image over time.
Kevin D.
Love the brass kobo! The weight just feels great… solid and powerful. The perfect companion to the aluminum kobo.
Kenrick Q.
Started practicing with it! However, when I make contact with the surface of an object my grip is not tight enough yet to avoid it sliding from one side to the other. How do I overcome this problem?

I really love this product but its a but heavy to weild the way I really want. I'm interested in other the alloy one to compare.
Dominic P.
Great Product. I would not expect any less from Budo Brothers
Debbie D.
Excellent quality. Feels great in the hands. Thumbs up
Dave M.
The brass kobo feels great in my hand, I have the aluminium kobo and one of the wood ones forgive me I don’t remember which one. I use and practice with a lot of different short sticks and the brass kobo is heavy enough that I feel like it will improve my strike speed and hand grip strength when using lighter sticks, you won’t regret buying it fo sure
Arvie M.
I love it!!! even just the weight it self much more the looks..
Thank you..
Mustafa A.
Liked it so much I bought a second one
Michael W.
Good weight, nice feel in the hand, and a higher quality if brass than I expected for such an affordable training tool. Budo Brothers, domo!
Joel R.
I love this purchase. The weight and shape of this piece is perfect. The presentation was also impressive. I ended up ordering a second one for my girlfriend who was blown away by it for Valentines day. I am continually blown away by the quality workmanship of your products.
Ignacio G.
Beautifully built, engraved and packaged, and as heavy as you expect (brass).
Tellis D.
I love the weight and balance of the brass kobo. Will order again. Thanks
