Big change in weight and length for my son, but he likes the feel of this Bo.

This bo is very well made, nicely stained, and seems like it could take out a tank. The downside to that comes with weight. I did not notice it when purchasing, but it is almost twice the weight of other hardwood bo on the site. I ordered this for my son, and am now thinking I should buy a "youth" bo for the weight. My mistake, but maybe others will be able to order the correct one for their child.

I couldn’t be happier with this bo. Shipping was fast. The bo is very straight. Is well balanced from center. Feels great in the hands in fact the more you use it the better that gets. No issues with wood filler or anything like that. I highly recommend this Bo

Ordered Srate Bo for Florida very satisfied ordering another for the Northeast

Just like the description, this staff is tough. You can feel its heavy-duty as soon as you pick it up. I prefer a straight styled, hardwood bo, so this was exactly what I was looking for.

Good price, quick shipping and it works great.

Product arrive on time and as expected. works great.

My six foot staff exceeded expectations in appearance, handling and balance. One of the better products I have seen.

Staff is solid and well made. It is heavy and you may need a lighter one if just starting out

My son loved his new staff! Great quality materials and well made. He is his excited to use it in class!

Perfect! Recommended by one of the instructors - fits my son perfectly. Easy to order, fast delivery! Could not be happier! Thanks

A great product. Just like the one I had in the dojo.

The staff came quickly with no scratches or dents during shipping. It is nicely finished and well balanced with no noticeable warping. It's a powerful staff, of course heavier than rattan , so those lightening fast spins one sees on u-tube are going to take effort and strength with this staff. But in a jam this might be the staff you would want.

I began using a broom handle as part of my daily warm up exercises and often wondered how easy it would be to learn how to handle a bo staff . . . it is a really nice piece of wood that I received at a fair market price in a timely manner.

Best bo I've ever purchased. Very good,dense hardwood. Well worth the money

Great staff!! If your looking for a heavier, solid feel this is defiantly the one you want to get. A bit heavier then posted on the web site but honestly I prefer it. Great buy will be picking another one up in near future.

Exactly what you would expect from a low quality bo i suppose. This product is anything but "tough and durable" seeing as it broke after about 10 moves the first time I used it.

Great bo, solid made and heavy

It's very staff like. It hurts when you get hit with it. Other than that, it's been a great weapon to practice with. The perfect height for me. Weighted very well. I like it very much.

I'm new to working with a bo staff but did not want to go with something cheap that would not give me a fair chance due to lack of good equipment. But also I didn't want to jump off with the top of the line two piece graphite staff either. This staff is PERFECT for the beginner. I am a beginner so I should know. :) Extremely good wood and quality finish. I can see this being a great tool for years to come. And Karate Supply does not play around with shipping. I ordered it on line at it was at my door four days later. If you're looking to get off into the bo staff, look no further. This is what you're looking for.

great weight and feel, durable

Bo is great. Heavier than expected, but that's fine for me. Very solid and strong. I can spar with my friend now!

Excellent quality. Good weight and thickness. Handles well

Very straight and sturdy! I received my order very promptly, as well.

This Bo Staff is most durable…a bit on the large size (5 foot) but still easy to grasp and you can feel the power transfer from your hands to the staff. I do my moves in the backyard so am careful to keep the dogs inside. This staff will provide great power discharge once I’ve got my move routines down pat. It will give me one up status on the forthcoming zombie apocalypse. Product was securely packed in a durable shipping tube that you can re-cycle. (Use a regular saw to slice it in half though…yes it is that tuff.) The staff has a nice feel to it and doesn’t slip out of your grip or anything. Nice finish to it too. I am very satisfied with it.
