Three-section-staff general cord durability?

Hi, I was wondering, is there an average lifespan for corded connections for sansetsukon?

How long do cords usually last with regular practice, does anyone know?

You, see I just ordered one with 60cm handles, cording, red oak, and varnish and intend to practice with it 3 times per every other or 2 weeks.

I intend to use them for a heavier weapons workout on weightlifting days, in place of my nunchakus. Like heavy 'chucks', so to speak, and perhaps more substance than just weight.

Why I chose cords instead of chains, as I've read that cords require more control- therefor they are bound to reinforce better form and coordination.

If I understand correctly?

Not to knock chains, of course. Heck, perhaps with my style of training, I'll be glad my nunchakus have a chain for those days I'd like to cut loose on between lifting days.
