Perfect, exactly what I ordered! The wood inside is very stable and still bendy, and the foam is just thick enough to not hurt you. The only way to make this better is to add a cheap dragon imprint on the ends.

Perfect for my 9 year old!

I have no complaints

perfect for training; can be used on your own or even against wooden bokken with very good shock absorption. the perfect tool for new learners or seasoned professionals, & very durable.

Really like this staff that I purchased. It's foam on the outside makes it comfortable for gripping and how light weight it is, just makes it perfect. Now the only thing I didn't like is that the staff was 11" smaller than me. It would be awesome if they had a shorter one. But all in all I love it.
