Description

Hello! Thanks for looking at my site!
This listing is for octagonal construction Hickory bo staffs. Its width from edge to edge is 1,3/16 and from flat surface to opposite flat surface is approximately 1 and 1/8inch with a length of 72".
These staffs are laminated which increases strength, straightness, and durability.
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. It is designed and absolutely wonderful for wilderness hiking as well due to the angled surfaces which is best for any sort of contact. The width allows the staff to be totally sturdy while also being not too heavy for carrying for an extended amount of time. They are also excellent for kata and strength training in the martial arts.
Hickory is the hardest available North American wood. Hickory prevents this bo from having almost any wobble or flex, and has a great sturdy feel. Please note that hickory can come in the lighter sapwood color, the darker heartwood color, or a combination of both, giving each staff a unique natural beauty. These variations are purely aesthetic and do not at all affect the performance or the feel of the wood. The pictures are generic pictures, and your staff will be completely unique.
The pictures above are generic in nature and are of previously made staffs. Each staff is unique and will have different aesthetic features then the pictures above. Yours will be unique. Most are made to order.
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.
We ship UPS Ground on full size staffs.
Thanks!
