Durattan™  is the world's most durable rattan stand-in and can be used in any weapon based art that uses impact training tools.  Made of a dense state of the art polymer (plastic), these sticks will take years of rattan-like abuse and continue to embrace their strength and durability.   Durattan™ is meant for stick on stick training such as Siniwali in the Filipino Martial Arts but unlike rattan it does not fray, chip, crack or splinter.  Save your rattan fighting sticks and prolong their life by using Durattan™ as a "stand-in."  In the past, there have been "indestructible" training products that for some reason have been made lighter than the real weapon.  We feel that this can lead to a very unrealistic situation.  One will get used to the light stand-in and not be able to yield heavier tools.  By having a similar weight, feel, and balance of dense quality rattan (a little heavier than the average stick), Durattan™ is the martial artist's choice for a long lasting impact training tool. 

     As stated, this product is a stand-in, not a replacement for rattan.  Natural rattan has a feel, smell, taste and sound like no other material on earth.  Unfortunately, like most natural materials, rattan breaks down over time and eventually requires replacement.  Durattan™ is different in this respect, as it will outlast natural rattan and provide impact training for years!  Not only will Durattan™ give you years of use, it will also save you hundreds of dollars you would have put into rattan.  If you are willing to sacrifice some of the qualities of rattan, such as the burning smell, to get a stick that costs the same as a quality rattan stick but lasts years longer, Durattan™ is for you. 

     Durattan™ gives you an exceptionally similar feel and sound as its natural cousin.  No more thud feeling from fraying or taped-up sticks.  As with rattan, the ends of our sticks are rounded, sanded and fired to give the sticks a limited amount of edges and reduce the chance of an accidental scrape or cut which can happen from a sharp edge.  What makes Durattan™ different from the other "indestructible" sticks on the market?  Not only is it the closest you can come to the weight and density of a quality rattan stick, it is offered in almost an unlimited amount of lengths, diameters and weights!  This gives you the chance to personalize your sticks to the exact specifications you need.
