Use a boken since it resembles a real sword but a shinai are used for tournaments. But I think its better to use a boken

Use for what?
Use the Boken to strengthen your arms, and the Shinai for practising your moves.
It also helps if you use the Boken just before you spar, your Shinai will feel light as a feather.
