I practically have my own little gym away from the gym: 100lb heavy bag, thai pads, focus mitts, double ended striking bag, and i am about to get a speed bag and chest protector. All my stuff its pretty much everlast or century but then again thats just about all they sell at Academy anyways.
I love practicing even at home but they only problem is finding someone to train with. So most of my time is just on the heavy bag. Or watching my form in the mirror.

You are one lucky dude. I have nothing at home. Our gym has a heavy bag, mitts and a few protectors for those who come in early. The rest of stuff is done on the opponent, good old rough way. Currently no local club wants to fight us, you know why!

I have too much equipment to list, my reason for buying it was so I can spar in and out of class. I pretty much have 2 or more sets of everything some better some not so good some in disrepair.
I have enough wasters and a few bokutos to arm a small regimen. and practice gear (modified sports gear) as protection.
about 4 real live blades used for test-cutting but because I don't practice regularly- oiling them feels more like a nuisiance and a chore these days.
why do you ask?

I've got a free standing wavemaster bag made by century. It's great for all kinds of kicks and punches. I also have a hitting paddle that's great using with a partner. In weapons training I have a masahiro katana and homemade nunchaku. And of course sparring gear including mouth piece.

Any money you spend on equipment is money well spent, as long as you actually use it (how many fat people do you know with a treadmill) I just finished construction of my wing chun dummy to add to my collection of equipment (bare essentials) which I must say gets used on a daily basis. "Remember its not what you have its how you use it and take care of it" Great Grand Dad.
