We use bokken, jo tanto and shini often in my classes. Maybe not every class but at least once a week. Its not a world wide thing or even an organization thing. (my dojo is Aikiki too) I think its just the particular dojo you are at. Maybe you should ask your sensei about his view on the use of weapons in his classes.
