For your martial arts we have made bokken in the standard form out of Betis wood. In the standard form, the handle flows smoothly into the blade. The grain of the wood ranges from a bright yellow-brown to red-brown. Betis is a very hard and resilient wood and good for contact work. The center of gravity is about 15 cm from the handle and is well balanced.
Betis wood is used for heavier construction work, e.g. in shipbuilding, for posts or foundation sleepers. Oil for lighting is pressed from the seeds. The bark and leaves are used medicinally.
