KAIZEN is the Japanese philosophy of constant improvement. We’ve applied this concept to our production process, aiming to improve every product that we put our name on. Each part of the Kaizen Kendama has been meticulously thought out by the Kendama USA team, making enhancements with the future of Kendama play in mind. The result is an affordable, premium Kendama specially crafted for the serious enthusiast.
The Kaizen Kendama features a 3 piece construction with traditional Japanese style handle assembly. We have updated the Ken shape for precision balance, and the tama bevel has been widened for enhanced play. We've intentionally set our starting spike length shorter out of the box. This allows the sarado to settle over time, eventually bringing the spike into an ideal length after a few sessions without going past the "point of no return."

Great all around shape. Not super big, but can do all the tricks. All wood design is beautiful, love seshin this mod
First time birch on birch and first time trying the Luna shape. Very light, very fun. Easy lunars no paint needed and if you like axes/underbirds this mod is for you, tama locks in between the big cup rim and ring stall; I would recommend playing this on a humid/ rainy day for maximum fun. Ken flipping feels natural with juggles as well. New favorite shape, good work KUSA!
My new favorite set up. Not sure when I’ll play paint again. Luna shape in rubberwood was slapping lunars and stalls right out of the box.
Hey Grason, thanks for your positive review! We're stoked to hear that the luna shaped rubberwood has become your new favorite set up. We hope it continues to bring you success and enjoyment. Happy seshing!
I’ve been looking forward to a kaizen version of the Luna shape. These kens are really nice.
My first Luna. It’s like the Jet shape but a little shorter. The Ken was delivered right on time. I asked custom service for a specific weight range and they made a note on the receipt to attempt at a specific weight range. I understand sometimes it can’t happened because wood isn’t predictable but they at least tried so that’s good enough for me.
Very happy with my order
