What is the best affordable kendama?
461232
I have purchased two of these particular kendama's and received black each time. These are sturdy, have a good strong string and are perfect for a slightly younger kid (up to age 12 or so). Otherwise I think the handle is slightly smaller. It is the best one for the price.

As with the other replies, no. If like me, you acquire your tools piecemeal, waiting for bargains to pop up instead of taking the leap with a mega-combo kit, then the suggestion to get a Sears or Home Depot/Husky bag is a good way to go. Bargains on Makita will probably continue in the short term as more and more of the pre-brushless tools go on doubly-reduced pricing. If you'd rather have brushless, then look for the "BL" descriptor and expect to pay more.

it all depends on how much money you have .... most of the top brands are great Polk, Rockford, Kenwood, my favorite is focal but way $$$$$$ alpine makes a nice one for under 200 Pioneer has one for 300 ish but you can spend 1000's ..... I like to match so I would go with Polk they pad4000 or d2000 are not much

Hello. I do not see the tubes you're referring to but if they are the Kenko macro tubes, yes and they are wonderful. If the tubes are most any other brands that cost $40 or more, they will usually work fine but are cheaper materials and workmanship. Some brands have the release switches in awkward locations and can make smooth/quick mounting and dismounting a but difficult. I have a set of Kenkos and a lesser expensive brand. Build quality alone, I always suggest the Kenko but will not frown at anyone buying the lesser expensive sets. Enjoy!

Go to Asian Market e.g Ranch99 or Daisho; you might get the stand with cheaper price the original one.

greenfoods is the best, it is ceremonial grade, with all the organic endorsements,very smooth, and it is marked on the jar from Japan... if you look online you can find the 11 ounce jar for about 20 bucks, you just have to look...

I've ordered 2 similar razors from Amazon, so I'm not 100 % sure which one I'm answering about! But if you prefer a long-handled razor, I can wholeheartedly recommend the Misaki. It's very well made and def. has a long handle. Still balances very well, and workmanship is outstanding. Usually goes for around 15 bucks.

I had the hitachi. It's a good saw but festool is just so much better. I'm a professional furniture maker an it is perfect for me. If cost is a consern go with hitschi but if u can swing the extra cost go for the festool.

The difference is mostly in the materials, the Kenko's are nicely made with metal parts while others are lighter and have more plastic. If your not taking the extension tubes on and off a lot or not going to use them much the cheaper ones will do, if your wanting quality and a smooth working parts, get the Kenko's, they are nice.

That is not cheap. You want cheap try BB&B; for $99.99 less 20% with their easily obtainable coupons and if the coupon date has gone by, not to worry, they will honor it! And the BB&B; unit has the extendable tube connection, power brush, slender nozzle, hair brush AND micro brush tools!

I wouldn't make a blanket statement about ALL Amazon sellers, but Able's prices are a bit unreasonable. There are other filters for <30USD that not only have the laser cut mesh like the Kone, but an additional ultra-fine wire mesh that gets you pretty close to a paper filter experience, but with a bit more oil/body. Maybe the price is reflected in the fact that Kone is made in the USA? Either way, you have options.

Well, I suppose you COULD take it to a blacksmith that specializes in Japanese swords, but because of the way the sword is made, it would be better simply to ask the blacksmith if he could make one from scratch, considering that if you actually FOUND a blacksmith capable of heat treating a reverse-blade katana, he would pretty much already have to re-grind the bevels of the sword, as it is slightly uneven in the grind,(due to the cheapness of the process used to make this sword for this price.), and THEN heat treat it, so that it doesn't warp or crack. all together, if you asked the smith to re-grind and then treat the sword, it would probably cost one or two hundred dollars for a quality job, and the sword would still be fairly weak compared to if you simply commissioned the smith to make one from scratch for probably five hundred dollars, with much higher quality steel. however, I see no need for it to be heat treated, as it is very sharp when it comes, and the wire-brushing used to make the "hamon" is fairly well done, and looks real, unless scrutinized by a trained eye. if you purchase a sword care kit with it, you can keep this sword for a long time, with a long cutting life, considering its based off of an anime. I got mine at the beginning of the year, and its still in perfect condition. as it is, this sword is still very good, and worth the money, but if you REALLY want a cheap sword with a real hamon, then you should go to http://www.trueswords.com/musashi-1060-carbon-steel-bamboo-warrior-sword-black-saya-p-4315.html for a VERY cheap, and VERY high quality katana with a real hamon. hope this helped! :)

I'd recommend the Kaytee brand one. It's twice the size and half the price as this one.

Kenzo has incial, secondary and base notes. I particularly like the long-lasting base notes. It is a product that lingers and is agreeable in all its stages.
