bachi
Bachi are the wooden sticks used to play taiko drums in Japanese drumming.
They resemble thick drumsticks, typically made from oak, maple, or other hardwoods.
The word comes from Japanese and appears in English mainly in contexts involving taiko performance: She gripped the bachi and struck the drum.
