Deluxe Bo Staff 1" Untapered 60" Hickory Ipe Laminated For Martial Arts Karate Hiking


This listing is for Hickory/Ipe Deluxe handmade Martial Arts Wooden Bo Staff. They come in tapered varieties or straight untapered. This is an upgrade to a common bamboo or rattan staff. The Bo Staff is a traditional Okinawan Self Defense training tool used in Kobudo training styles. These particular staffs are 60 inches in length maximum. The untapered version is a constant diameter of 1" throughout its length.

The materials consist of beautiful hickory on either side and an extremely heavy darker ipe wood down the center for added straitness and beauty and weight. Hickory is the heaviest available indigenous north american wood. Ipe wood is twice as hard as ipe on the wood hardness scale. The laminations of the various woods increases the strength of the wood by having the grain structures reinforce one another.

This bo staff is recommended for all possible dojo uses as it is stronger then even solid hickory. It combines the best impact qualities of hickory with the extra heft and weight from of ipe in the center of the staff. It is about the toughest available and this combination of woods, and is a beautiful and functional combination. They are the highest quality bo staffs I make and they are amazing for any use including kata, dojo use, and tournament use due to its inherent beauty.

Hickory can come in lighter tan sapwood colors, light brown or darker brown heartwood, or sometimes a mixture of both dark and light on the same stick called 'calico hickory'. These variations are aesthetic only and do not affect the integrity of the wood at all.

It is finished with several coats of Linseed and Beeswax oil, which gives it a permanent shine and protective layer while allowing the users hands to slip effortlessly up and down the staff, which is required for proper technique.
