Is your favorite move a stance or a spin? Would you rather strike your opponent or entrap them? There are lots of prefernces in martial arts, like to use a peeled or unpeeled staff? Or use one that is plain or decorated? If you chose the later on the last two, then you'll be needing the Burned Rattan Bo Staff. It makes life easier when you can confidently make decisions.

Rattan is a naturally growing reed that can be dried to create long shafts of smooth material. Similar to the composition of wood, but much lighter, this fibrous plant has helped make millions of martial arts weapons. This staff is raw, meaning the outer skin is still attached, which provides a bit more texturing for grip that may benefit a novice student. Because it is not wood, there is no fear of shattering or even splinters, which is why this rattan staff is ideal for combat training.

Up and down the shaft of this unpeeled bo weapon is a burnt pattern of spots that work as markers for where to place your hands as you work through your kata. This helps tremendously, much like the markings on the fretboard of an instrument. Even though the material is solid, these staffs are extremely lightweight and will take on any opponent who is looking for a match. And spinning this staff is safer than harder materials, especially when you are starting out.

The approximate weight of rattan with a 1-inch diameter is about 5.5 ounces per foot, so depending on the length that you need, it will vary. These decorated martial arts sticks come in 4, 5, and 6 foot lengths. Having the right size is going to let you practice efficiently and help prevent injury. If you are unsure, start with a smaller length and work your way up from there, or pick up one of every size. They do say that variety is the spice of life.
