Recently someone wrote about their love of the Bo staff and people went a bit ballistic...
But thinking about it, the term Bo staff has a paticular meaning that may not be obvious to all. Bo staffs are ~6 feet long and stiff (white oak or...)
Jo staffs are shorter ~4 feet long but similar material.
My chinese waxwood staff is about 6 foot long but it's whippy and has a spring to it.
My 6 1/2 point pole is closer to 8 foot long and it's stiffness is somewhere between the two others.
I would venture a guess that a quarter staff would be different again.
So since this is 'weapons' let's talk about different staffs, their qualities and uses!!
