Not always a redundancy.
Often, when it is said, it is actually being said as "knight cavalier." Cavaliers were not necessarily knights and knights were not necessarily cavaliers, so there was a distinction being made.

1. NEVER lean the Bo on the wall as this could make the Bo warp and useless.

2.NEVER furnish your Bo with wood furnish etc. Let the Bo shine by the sweat and oil of your hands' moisture through years of working with the Bo.

Hope my little experience could help you a bit.
