    So sick, I'm a fan of the ones with the beech around the bevel and hardwoods on the top

    That's my second favorite for sure, but that purple heart ring on a birch ken though, gotta Love it.

    I gotta go with the Jacob Knisely or the Cazz Lorde mod. I haven't had these woods yet on a kendama.

    Small batch killer inlays! I think they were limited to about 30-40each...
    I'm leaning to the Cazz for the wood variety and for the simplicity. Grant's for the ash (first time for PNW).

    I really like these, super cool. Hopefully they'll re-release later if and when this batch sells out so I can grab one.

    I've only had a Tk16 so far so I know I like birch but I was thinking about trying a hickory! Is it harder or softer than birch?

    Hickory is harder. I only say birch because I like the tama.

    Does hickory chip easier compared to birch? I feel like birch is a good balance of soft and hard and idk if hickory is the same.
