👉 The ho weapon is a traditional Korean spear that has been used for centuries, particularly in martial arts and self-defense practices. It is characterized by its long, slender shaft typically made of wood or bamboo, often wrapped in leather or metal for added strength and durability. The ho is usually tipped with a sharpened stone, bone, or metal point, designed to deliver powerful and precise strikes. In Korean martial arts like Taekwondo, the ho is a fundamental weapon, requiring practitioners to master techniques for throwing, parrying, and striking with it. Its design and use reflect the cultural emphasis on agility, balance, and strategic combat in Korean traditions.
