Jo Sunuke 8 Bu - Japanese wooden stick
Weight : approx. 700g
Length : approx. 128cm
Diameter : 24mm
Jo literally means "stick" and 8Bu corresponds to 24mm in an old Japanese unit.
Suitable for aikido practice.
It is a standard Jo in terms of length, weight and diameter. On the other hand, the wood used for its manufacture - SUNUKE - is very rare. It is the central part of a tree called Distylium racemosum of about 300 years old. Each tree has a different color.
These jo are made in Kyushu (the southern part of Japan ) by ARAMAKI at Miyakonojo. This company keeps the traditional way of manufacture, such as drying the materials (wood) naturally not to destroy the fibers; therefore our Jo are solid and robust and can be used for a long time.
