Hardwoow Jo Used for Aikido.,
By Jeremy Yundt (Northern California, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 54" Hardwood Jo Staff - 54 inches (Misc.)
I spent several hours researching economical Jo to use for Aikido. I thought of making my own but local hardware stores (I went to three) didn't have the hardwood dowels I was looking for. I searched several websites and perused a plethora of Jo's from $100 Ipe and $80 Japanese White Oak to this 20 dollar Jo. I figured if I get a black belt I can buy a nicer one.
The first Jo I received had numerous small cracks which appeared to be very sharp to the touch and could potentially cause injury. I contacted the seller who promptly air mailed me a new Jo. The new Jo has a beautiful grain and is crack free. After a few days of testing it appears to be a great choice. It runs smoothly through hands, it is an appropriate diameter and seems to be working great! Price was very reasonable.

Way too much fun.,

This review is from: 54" Hardwood Jo Staff - 54 inches (Misc.)
This staff seems to be able to stand up to anything. The first thing I did with this was to whack it against my tree, the staff was fine, my oak lost bark. This is an ideal weapon for those new to hand held combat, it is easy to master and almost impossible to hurt yourself with. Not much of a collector's item, but an awesome toy.

a lot of heft for the on contact practitioner,

This review is from: 54" Hardwood Jo Staff - 54 inches (Misc.)
if youre like me, youll eventually want to start smacking stuff with your equipment. that eventually swinging around in the air will not hold up to your increasing demands. this stick is solid. has a LOT of heft. meaning its heavy, when you strike an object you throw yourself into the swing and if the staff is heavy youre looking at increased striking power. so this staff is excellent for on contact practicing. the shipping speed was horrendous though, so if you buy this excellent stick, be prepared to wait a while. unless of course you choose 2 day delivery
