Black Belt
an eleven to twelve inch stick, often with an attached lanyard is my favorite Hapkido weapon. Extremely effective against joints and pressure points for striking, not to mention leverage during joint manipulations. It is also very adaptable to Kenpo techniques.

Long Bo, Short Bo, Cane, Mr. Parsons favorite, Belt, some schools do sword. My personal choice is the cane. It's legal to carry and very effective.
