and perhaps is the most refined. Because we make our own weapons, we can customize the eiku for your size or special needs.  Our standard eiku has a 3.25 inch wide blade with a 1.25 diameter handle.  We have a standard small size with a shorter blade and handle, and the handle with a smaller diameter. We can also make a larger size with a longer blade and handle.  The smaller format accommodates the less robust practitioners. Crane Mountains standard adult eiku is 67” tall and the smaller size eiku is 3” shorter. The handle diameter on the adult eiku is 1.25” and on the smaller on 1 1/8”.  The standard adult eiku can also be made with the smaller handle. We can customize eiku for particular systems and needs.
