A broomstick? Give me a break... honestly...

(I suppose this is what happens when people actually try to educate themselves... 😁)

haha, stop it, you're actually going to kill me

Look, you've gotta come down on the price a little bit; we all know how much things have been spiraling lately. Tell you what, I'll throw $50
your way if you make it happen.

250, and that's just for the kimono $83, the bokken, and the staff $67. Can I really get the whole set for 250?

Bokken was actually crafted by the master Batur, Dinko...

Look, I wasn't even trying to be funny; I simply wanted to give the "stick" its proper designation. To me, it’s quite dear, actually. In fact, I hold it in higher regard than a Bokken, and frankly, it irritates me when everyone insists on calling it a stick—as if its shape and appearance are all that matter, rather than its functional purpose and inherent meaning. Why is it that nobody refers to a Bokken as just a "piece of wood"? 😕

There, have I sufficiently clarified the intent behind my post for you? Yesterday, my brain was clearly working overtime, so I failed to elaborate on my position, and it's painfully obvious that you completely missed the point... 😉

Fair point. It could easily be a bo or a hanbo... better to be specific so buyers actually know what they're looking at. As for whether calling it a "stick" is an insult to a "jo," that's a whole different debate, but definitely not one for this subforum.

As for whether calling it a "stick" is actually a derogatory way to refer to a jo? Well, that's a debate worth having, though certainly not on this particular subforum.

Ugh, yeah, you're absolutely right. I hadn't even considered that. 😵 But even so, I still maintain that we are specifically discussing a jo here.

Joseph Allen94 said:$250, and I actually shelled out for a gi $83, plus my bokken and staff $67. You really think you can get all that for $250?

How tall are you? And what kind of gi are we talking about here—is it for Judo, Jiu-Jitsu, or Karate?

I'm heading into Washington, D.C. tomorrow, anyone want to join me for $83? Honestly, it’s such a small thing, and it's practically brand new since I actually signed up for that two-week camp 😁 and then immediately backed out.

I’ve actually got some workout gear up for grabs too:

Also, I'm parting with a really solid cane—it's a great piece: http://yamaneko.ca/files/images/me_cane.jpg

😁

so, what happened? why did you drop out?

Nicole Thompson76, I wouldn't trust a word of that, especially since I'm using basically the exact same kind of BAT at my training sessions.

Joseph Allen94 said:Heading to NYC tomorrow—anyone down for $83? Honestly, it’s no big deal, and it’s basically brand new anyway, since I signed up for the two-week camp and then bailed right after 😁

So what if you backed out? You can always practice at home—besides, you’ll just use the kimono for whatever other martial art you sign up for later 😁
Look, the only real issue is if you're broke, and I get that 😉

I’m running pretty low on time, and honestly, I could use the extra cash. I'm heading back to the city for another walk around the park. I'd give just about anything for $67.

Are you just trying to make it easier to get home after that seminar, man? 😉

You wouldn't believe it, seriously. This stick is practically an antique, probably close to 200 years old. I actually pulled a muscle, so using this thing makes walking a hell of a lot easier. Then, out of nowhere, my bike's suspension mount just gave out—it shifted right under me, and since I'm not exactly a heavyweight, I ended up face-planting about half a meter onto the edge of the suspension rail. Heh, my leg is looking bruised as hell right now. 😂

Jacob Sullivan9 said:I honestly can't believe it, either. This stick is nearly 200 years old. I actually ended up tearing a muscle, so using it to help me limp around has been a bit of a lifesaver. Then, the suspension mount just gave way—it shifted unexpectedly, and since I don't weigh much, I basically tumbled about half a meter down onto the edge of the suspension frame. Heh, my leg is looking as blue as a pair of traditional martial arts trousers right now. 😂

Maybe those of us getting older should probably just stick to fishing or playing cards instead. I mean, look at what happens to us!🙂
Wishing you a really speedy recovery!
