Hanbo is a stick made of hardwood. It is widely used in hanbo-jutsu and jo-jutsu, kobudo.
Size: length 100 cm (diameter 24 mm-27 mm) Material: European Hornbeam
European Hornbeam is a fine wood, with a beautiful creamy color. It's one of the woods called “ironwood". It's hard, takes sheering forces well, and is almost exemplary for practice weapons.
* Weapon Stand/Holder is not included. ** The black and brown jo are treated with a special multilayer black/brown impregnation and oil, which gives it an excellent appearance and provides extra protection against moisture.
Our Craftsmanship
Each piece is handcrafted from carefully selected hardwoods — European Hornbeam, Robinia and Ash — chosen for their exceptional density, resilience, and authentic feel under real training conditions. Our artisans shape every weapon by hand, ensuring proper balance and weight distribution that serious practitioners demand. Each piece is finished with protective oil, ensuring lasting quality. Behind every Bokuto product is a team that trains in martial arts themselves — so we build what we trust in our own hands.
