This listing is for octagonal construction Hickory Hanbo Martial Arts Staffs. Their width from flat surface to opposite flat surface is 1 inch and these products are 36" to 42" long.
The octagonal style design feels EXTREMELY natural in the hands and is the ultimate for outdoor use staff... they feels more solid when gripping. It is preferred by many martial artists because of this quality. Octagonal staffs make for an EXCELLENT wilderness hiking stick due to the increased grip. They are also excellent for kata and strength training in the martial arts. They are not recommended for martial arts contact training only because that unlike round staffs, the edges will dent upon contact.
Hickory is the hardest available North American wood. Hickory prevents these staffs from having any wobble or flex, and has a great sturdy feel. These staffs can be made from solid hardwood or out of laminated construction.
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.
