Deluxe Hanbo (91 cm) - Classic Wood - White Oak
Classic Hanbo - 3 Shaku
Made in Japan (Kyushu region)
Available woods: White Oak
Length: 3 shaku (90.9 cm)Â |Â Diameter: 24 mm, 27 mm.
Finish: Standard Finish or Seido Special Finish
This classic Hanbo is available in Shirakashi (white oak). The standard length is 3 shaku (90.9 cm), with 2 different diameters to choose from.
Although it is not conventionally used in Aikido, the Hanbo is however an excellent tool for training on shomen or yokomen strikes from a mid-distance. It is therefore widely used in self-defense-oriented Aikido classes.
The standard thickness is 24 mm (8 bu), but the 27 and 30 mm models are designed to work on tanren (reinforcement). The 27 mm model is very strong, which also makes it a great Hanbo practice with very violent contacts.
- Choice of wood species: white oak.
- Diameter: 24 mm (8bu), 27 mm (9bu).
- Available Finish: Standard Finish or Seido Special Finish
- Manufacturing workshop: Aramaki
Finish options:
In 2021, with concerns for the workers, all workshops greatly reduced the number of urethane-varnished weapons and replaced the finish by a "Candle Wax". Seido is now transitioning to a new finish offer for the majority of its weapons.
Standard Finish: At Seido, we complete the workshop finish with Camelia oil treatment by default. This is the standard Seido finish.
We do not apply any additional polishing for this finish, so some weapons might have a slightly rough surface.
For maintenance, we recommend that you oil your weapons about once a month with a vegetal-based oil.
Seido Special Finish: For this special Finish, we first apply a Camelia oil polish (oiling and sanding the weapons with oiled sandpaper), then we finish the weapon with high-quality bee wax. This finish makes the wood as smooth as it can be and guarantee excellent protection for several months.
For maintenance, we recommend at least oiling your weapons every month or so. You can also apply wax a few hours after oiling your weapons (if some oil remains on the wood, remove it with a piece of cloth or tissue).
