Hickory Bo Staff Tapered, 1,1/4"

The staff is gorgeous. I have zero technique yet... but i can tell this is something made with intent, to last. The grain is smooth and straight. The laminate layering is invisible to the naked eye, excepting a central line at the tips of the shafts. The linseed oil was perfectly applied. As a result of this, the wood has the perfect amount of grip and slip. The plane change at the taper is nearly invisible to me, and I have immensely detailed perception. No warping. I have zero issues with my staff. I would recommend this to anyone looking for something beautiful yet functional.
