The Hanb? [hambo?] (Japanese ??), or at least the term, comes from half of a B? (Han = half, B? = stick). With a length of 80 - 100 cm (thickness depending on hand size approx. 2.3-3 cm), it is a striking and thrusting weapon. In Japan, the Hanb? is known as a Kory? weapon. There, training takes place in Kukishin Ryu (approx. 14th century) and in Hontai Yoshin-Ryu. The Kukishin Ryu is particularly well-known, and is also still practiced in the Jujutsu schools that go back to Takamatsu Toshitsugu (Bujinkan, Jinenkan and Genbukan). The Hanb? was included in the Kukishin Ryu curriculum in 1575 by Nagafusa Kuriyama, after his spear was smashed by an opposing swordsman in a fight and he continued to fight with the rest of the shaft and defeated him. A weapon very similar to the Hanb? is the Tanjo; this is a western-style walking stick that was used to develop self-defense techniques in the early 1900s by Uchida Ryogoro. The style is named after its developer, Uchida Ryu Tanjo Jutsu, and is taught today in Shinto Muso Ryu. Due to its small size, it is quite easy to conceal and can be used effectively in combat by turning the wrist in quick attacks, among other things. However, only about 20% of the uses of this weapon consist of thrusts and punches. The Hanb? is used much more for leverage. The Hanb? is present in several styles: in Kobud?, Ninjutsu, Jujutsu, Karate (various styles) and also in Aikid?. There, the forms (Kata) were taught further and sometimes modified. In Germany in particular, Georg Stiebler established the Hanb? as an additional weapon, as this weapon is a good addition to karate and jujutsu training.

The advantages of the Hanb? can be found in close combat, where you can use effective leverage as well as thrusting and striking techniques. Accordingly, outside of close combat, long-range weapons such as the B? are generally superior to the Hanb?, as they have a greater range.
