How does a Rattan Escrima / Arnis Stick - Natural Finish - 26" work?
The stick is gripped in one hand and used to execute strikes, blocks, and disarming techniques characteristic of Filipino martial arts. Practitioners typically train with one stick in each hand or combine a single stick with an empty hand.
Rattan is chosen as the material because its fibrous structure absorbs impact without splintering the way hardwoods do. When two rattan sticks collide during sparring or drills, the fibers compress and fray rather than shatter, reducing the risk of sharp fragments.
