This is a handmade extra heavy Wooden Jo Staff. The Jo Staff is a traditional Okinawan training tool used in Kobudo style martial arts. These staffs are 1,1/4 inches in thickness and come in lengths from 48". These staffs are laminated which improve strength, durability, straightness, and safety.
The staff is great for muscle building or weapons strength training due to its thickness and weight. They also function excellently as a wilderness walking stick due to this very reason.
The materials consist of Hickory sapwood. Hickory is the hardest available north American wood, and has a great sturdy feel. The hickory prevents this bo from having any wobble upon performing techniques.
The pictures are generic in nature and show a variety previous staffs built. Hickory can come in several different hues and yours will be unique.
It is finished with several coats of Linseed and Beeswax oil and sanded to a fine finish, which gives it a permanent shine and and amazing feel in the which allows the hands to slip effortlessly up and down the staff.
