Default Shakujo

Shakujo staff are used by Japanese Buddhist monks and shugenja priests, yamabushi et al. They are about six feet in length. On the top end is usually six metal rings and a metal point on the bottom end. Please feel free to correct me if I am in error.

I know that his group works hard at taking care of what folks might want or need from Japan. He's been the merchant rep on e-budo for a long time now so give him a holler and I'm sure he could help..
