Bō : ウィキペディア英語版


A ''bō'' (棒: ぼう), ''joong bong'' (Korean), ''gun'' (Chinese), or ''kun'' (Okinawan), is a very tall and long staff weapon used in Okinawa and feudal Japan. ''Bō'' are typically around long and used in Japanese martial arts, in particular bōjutsu. Other staff-related weapons are the '''' which is long and the ''hanbō'' (half ''bō'', known as ''tahn bong'' in Korea) which is long.
==Types==
The ''bō'' is usually made with hard wood or a flexible wood, such as red or white oak, although bamboo and pine wood have been used, more common still is rattan for its flexibility. The ''bō'' may be tapered in that it can be thicker in the center (''chukon-bu'') than at the ends (''kontei'') and usually round or circular (''maru-bo''). Some bō are very light, with metallic sides, stripes and a grip which are used for XMA and competitions/demonstrations. Older bō were round (''maru-bo''), square (''kaku-bo''), hexagon (''rokkaku-bo'') or octagon (''hakkaku-bo''). The average size of a bō is 6 shaku (around ) but they can be as long as (''kyu-shaku-bō'').〔
A ''bō'' is sometimes called a ''rokushakubō'' (六尺棒: ろくしゃくぼう). This name derives from the Japanese words ''roku'' (六: ろく), meaning "six"; ''shaku'' (尺: しゃく); and ''bō''. The ''shaku'' is a Japanese measurement equivalent to 30.3 centimeters (0.994 ft). Thus, ''rokushakubō'' refers to a staff about 6-''shaku'' (1.82 m; 5.96 feet) long. The ''bō'' is typically 3 cm (1.25 inch) thick, sometimes gradually tapering from the middle (''chukon-bu'') to 2 cm (0.75 inch)at the end (''kontei''). This thickness allows the user to make a tight fist around it in order to block and counter an attack.〔
In some cases for training purposes or for a different style, rattan was used. Some were inlaid or banded with strips of iron or other metals for extra strength.〔 ''Bō'' range from heavy to light, from rigid to highly flexible, and from simple pieces of wood picked up from the side of the road to ornately decorated works of art.
