Who Has The Best REAL Nunchaku...?

[SteyrAUG]

fell asleep while reading this discussion....boaaaaring...
why don´t you just try some pairs....oh, forgot: white-collar-business-people do not have money in these days...so sorry you won´t try Woodall´s....
hey and one more thing: fantastic that people can calculate and compare prizes from 1980 to now...really impressive... so better find a solution to get back to this 80´s-shop...

hope nobody sees my sarcastic undertone...lol

Well if you took the time to read what I wrote you would have learned two things and saved yourself a lot of time and sarcasm.

1. I intend to get a pair of Woodalls and I believe they will be very high quality.

2. It isn't that this "white collar" person (although I'm actually not so you were wrong about that too) can't afford a pair of Woodalls, but they aren't cost effective enough for me to be several (probably a dozen) pair. That comes out to $600 plus shipping and isn't a simple purchase.

Yea lol, if you could afford 2-3 of the rifles you own, then Woodalls doesnt seem like it would be a far stretch   Almost looks like chump change, but hey everyones situation is different.

when i tell people the price of my woodalls and the price of my flowtoys, i get some raised eyebrows, but i dont mind spending money for quality when it comes to what i love.

Well a couple things.

1. Rifles tend to hold their value or increase in value with time. So it is a safe place to put a lot of money. Additionally certain firearms are a "betting all the marbles" item that can protect your life so it makes sense to buy the best. And finally my occupation is related to firearms so they are something of a necessity not to mention a write off.

2. I'm not looking for a single pair for myself. If I was I'd just get a nice set of Woodalls and be done. I probably will do that by the way just so I have a pair for me as they look nice. I'm looking to grab about a dozen for a long term supply and when I buy in quantity I try and get the best "whatever I'm buying" for the money. Sound buying practices is what allows me to have money to spend.

3. For me traditional weapons are sorta squandered money. I don't derive any income from them and they are slowly worn out over time so they are not an investment in any way. So getting a dozen slightly overpriced custom weapons for general use probably isn't a sound idea.

when i tell people the price of my woodalls and the price of my flowtoys, i get some raised eyebrows, but i dont mind spending money for quality when it comes to what i love. 

And neither would I if I was buying a single pair. But as stated before, looking to stock up and on several good sets that will be for regular hard use (meaning likely to hit other weapons, get dropped, etc.) for my own practice and instruction of students.

I agree with your thinking, but probably I use it in a different way: I like to buy in pairs or more the good stuff, so if it ever breaks, I have a replacement. I have regret many times not buying something in more quantity. But I use this, only for myself, and if I understood you correctly, you do that to gift or the sale later.

But, if you have never seen a Woodall's before (or wathever nunchaku you want to buy in big quantity) I suggest you to buy one first, so you will know exactly what it is

Hello guys

I guess I should answer a few things here.  Sorry I haven't been on lately we have been extremely busy.  I see that some of our customers have been trying to answer your questions for me so thanks to one and all.

Our Dolan Reproduction U-Swivels are machined at our shop by us.  The design has been improved from the old Dolan ones because there were some flaws in its design.  The reason the cost is more than you expect for those caps is that the cost of metal has jumped tremendously in the 30 years since they were started originally by Dolan, It cost more for the chain than it used to, we use more steel than he did and we do not mass produce the caps as he had them done which makes it cheaper but also flaws because quality control is not the same..

Our nunchaku are the highest quality and craftsmanship available.  You can read our reviews and see our customer video reviews for verification of this.  Additionally we offer the best customer service that you will ever find anywhere.  This is of course what our customers say and we appreciate their kind comments. 

You want to purchase large quantity from a Nunchaku company, we offer discounts for volume orders (orders of 6 or more)  We buy only the best quality and heartwood of all woods we carry.  We accept no imperfections.  We hand craft our products (in our workshop) and do not ship out to other people to make as others in the business do.  Our options are sometimes limitless due to our stock of woods and abilities.  Our Nunchaku is not only beautiful to look at they are also very usable.

If you are wanting cheap Nunchaku that will not last then your options are limitless since many companies out there make substandard Nunchaku and they also state you are buying one kind of wood when they are selling you a cheaper wood and mask it as the real thing you ordered.  You do get what you pay for in most instances. 

If you have any questions you can contact me and we can discuss what options you have.  I don't normally like posting the reasons to choose us but it seems that too much has been said without me commenting about our company.  I usually stick to offering my opinion about Nunchaku when it is asked of me in order to help the forum members here.  No matter what company you choose good luck in finding exactly what you need in the specifications that you need.  With enough research you will eventually find exactly what you need and desire.  Yes, even if that company isn't us 

Have a terrific week,
Colleen

Look I don't know if this has been mentioned yet in this long thread but even if it has its worth restating:

The "improvement" of Woodall's U-Swivels over Dolans more accident prone models is that there is no longer a bolt going down into the core of the chuck from under the swivel. Dolan's design made the top part of the chuck prone to weakness, Woodalls attaches their caps to the batons similarly to a ball bearing cap, against the grain, with a brass pin. Its a safe, useful change to a design that was good but flawed, and now, they actually ARE better and safer than ball bearings. The only reason Matt and Yeti's U-swivels broke anyway is because the two of them are inhuman speed demons that prefer heavy woods.

 Nothing against Lee or Prochux, but woodalls are the closest thing you can find today to Dolans.
