I have tried many canes and the Tendos are great. I agree that the stripes can probably lose a bit of the wonder, but not much. What is more important is how deceptively you can load and appear the cane.

Has anyone orderd a cane (or anything for that matter) from http://www.52magic.com. Their canes are very inexpensive..or is that cheap???

Well, I was fortunate to find a Mahka Tendo Cane. SEO diod have it in stock and it is supposedly on it's way to me. If Videoman had not posted that alert for me, I would not have known. I had preveously checked SEO and they had sold out, so I did not have checked again.

Thanks Videoman!

You're welcome Regan, hope you like the cane.
Markis, 52 Magic seems too cheap. They worry me, but if you get a cane from them please let us know the quality. Usually, like anything, you get what you pay for. But there are occasionally exceptions.

One other thing that I neglected to mention that I like about the Tendo cane, is that when collapsed, it is a smaller size than most other appearing canes. Which for people with smaller hands makes it much easier to palm and conceal. I would not have thought that this would make much of a difference but I've found that I can steal it and handle it in ways that I could not before.

I noticed Daytona has several striped canes, $25 or so.

But be aware that those are plastic canes. For some uses I prefer a plastic cane, they often seem to be quieter for instance, so they have their place. But for a silk to cane a good metal one is so much faster and you can use a larger silk. Always good to have more sources though, so thanks for the tip.

I received my Mahka Tendo Cane from SEO Magic and I love it! I feel very fortunate to have been able to get one. Thanks again Vidoeman!

so , what was the shipping???

Ian,
I ordered it from the SEO Magic (USA division) in California. Shipping was free from there to me, but I do not know how much that shipping from Japan actually cost.
