Hi - Anyone happen to know where there may be modern shakujo available, either with the staff or just the head?

For reference, it's a Buddhist staff with free hanging rings:

I've seen them either with a shorter staff like above, or a staff that's more full-length, but haven't had any luck finding them for sale except for the occasional old one on eBay.. I know that they're hard to find, but thought I'd see if anyone here has stumbled across them in their shopping.. thanks.

Perhaps it's a matter of finding a online Japanese retailer of Buddhist objects, but I haven't had much luck with that either.

alinkinthechain: I also do love Boston. I've traveled a bit and nothing feels as wonderful as that city to me. I'm lucky to live nearby Nov 12, 2024 15:28:16 GMT

txhighlander: Boston might be my fav. So much history, and clean! and great food. New York was cool for a day to see iconic landmarks Nov 7, 2024 17:00:22 GMT

blackngold: Dallas is the worst place in the country to fly in and out of. High winds can delay your flight by 6.5 hours and leave you sitting on the tarmac for an additional 2 (ask me how I know)... Oct 31, 2024 2:21:20 GMT
