Your cart is empty.For over 60 years, King David Conductor Batons have been the baton of choice for literally thousands of conductors. Symphony conductors, band leaders and choral directors specifically request the baton because it is consistent in quality, balance and weight. Conductors experience less fatigue with King David batons due to their light weight and balance. The shafts are made of the finest straight grain birch and maple - kiln dried to prevent warp. The white high luster coating is heat set to provide long service and lasting beauty.

Not bad! I’ve played around with these and decided finally to buy one. The shaft is very thick, almost comically so. The handle isn’t really rotund enough to hold between the fingers so you’d want a more traditional grip. The balance point is far ahead of the fulcrum which I think is pretty consistent with cork handles.

The price has increased in the past year for this model. This company offered it for less than the competition. Great baton for beginners.

As a music teacher I just needed a cheap baton that I could leave at school. While this is not a perfectly balanced baton, I am strong enough to deal with that for the length of a rehearsal. My arm does not get extra tired because I am not holding a balanced baton, and guess what, my band students do not care what I'm waving up front anyway so you should just buy this baton.

The King David Pear Cork Handle Baton is a very comfortable baton to use. It's inexpensive but very effective. I enjoyed using it and would recommend it to anyone in the market for a low cost conducting baton.

I hate this baton. It feels awful. I don't know why I tried it. Going back to GL batons.If you need something in a pinch and don't want to spend a lot of money, it's better then nothing... maybe.

You get what you pay for. I used this for a beginner conducting class, and it worked perfectly fine. I was very satisfied. By the end of the semester, it was pocked with my cat's bitemarks, and I eventually snapped it in two on accident. It's not your most sturdy baton, but it's perfectly fine for a beginner. Also, very cheap!

This is a pretty good product if you don't want to spend the money on a real quality baton. I had to order two because the first one came broken. The second came warped, then I just gave up and super glued it. When in tact, it has a pretty good balance. Though I don't really recommend it.
