This is a handmade Wooden Jo Staff. The Jo Staff is a traditional Okinawan training tool used in Kobudo style martial arts. Its diameter is a constant 1 inch throughout its length.
These Jo staffs are 48 or 54 inches in length. If you are looking for a 60" Length, these are listed under a seperate listing.
The materials consist of High-quality southern Hickory. Hickory is the hardest available north American wood and has a great sturdy feel. The hickory prevents this jo from having any wobble upon performing techniques.
*For the staffs labeled as discounted, these staffs have sections where the grain is not ideally straight or some other cosmetic imperfection, making these staffs not recommended for contact. These staffs however are perfectly straight, and are perfect for any solo uses.
It is finished with several coats of Linseed and Beeswax oil and sanded to a fine finish, which gives it a permanent shine and amazing feel in the which allows the hands to slip effortlessly up and down the staff.
*Most of our items are made to order so please allow 1-2 weeks for completion. If you are buying more than 4 items, I would suggest please contacting by our e-mail below first to confirm the availability of supplies and delivery time for you.
We ship UPS ground. Tracking is included. For multiple staffs we combine shipping costs in one package.
Thanks!
