Sankyo made against a silly attack - shomen uchi - against the front head, that only very few stupid people would do, because the front of the skull is very hard and would damage your hand. But as a basic introduction it is okay.
@mickparly Not so silly if you're using a katana, or if the strike connects not at the top of the skull as the hand is descending, but rather at the end of the nose, as the hand is rising.
@mickparly If someone attacked you with a bottle or knife to the front of the head the same technique would apply. All based on sword play techniques.

@shakespearsplat Do you mean Sayonage the judo throw? If so you've painted yourself as quite the bench-warmer
