The dimensions of jo depend on personal parameters and preferences. Joe is used as a weapon in many martial arts for kata training, paired with other jo and bokken. The jo can be used to strike, like a sword, like a naginata, with wide sweeping movements, like a spear, with stabbing pins. Both sides are used as a shock surface, unlike one side of the sword. Maai (combat distances) jo can vary depending on the grip that is applied. Thanks to such characteristics as speed and changeable maai - this is a formidable weapon in the hands of an experienced master.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128 cm (50.4\") (diameter 24 mm, diameter 27 mm)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e European Hornbeam\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEuropean Hornbeam\u003c\/strong\u003e is one of the woods called “ironwood\".
