Ipe Jo Staff 1" 54" Solid Hardwood Martial arts/karate/aikido/hiking/exotic

Description

This is a handmade solid Ipe Jo Staff. Ipe is an exotic heavy wood. The Jo Staff is a traditional Okinawan training tool used in Kobudo style martial arts. This particular staff is 54 inches in length. Its diameter is 1 inch through out its length.
Ipe is twice as hard and heavy as common American Hickory. It has an amazing dark brown color. It is one of the hardest woods in the world. It has been hand picked and has an amazing smooth sturdy feel. This jo staff has no wobble upon performing techniques. It is a beautiful heavy dark brown color.
It is sanded down to a shine and 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.
Thanks!

*If you would like a custom order handmade staff of a certain size or material please contact me on ebay and I will make a custom listing for you. I may also have other staffs available not listed so please check with me and I will be happy to list them for you.
*Please note that as of the handmade nature of the products and my location of manufacture which is in the middle of the country, I can only make it to the post office on average once a week, so the item's handling time has been set to 3-5 business days. Thank you for your business!
