Cold Steel bokken:"PRACTICLY INDESTRUCTABLE"

[AntiGravity909]

something i heard my master say when i was a kid is perfect for u if u can have enough control to hold back imagine what u can wield when u unleash it take from that what u want its just some yin yang crap i heard a master say but it has a decent point so do one thing for me work hard stay proud it looks good on u...

[jordantheok]

@AntiGravity909 It is not crap. And I will, thanks.

[1991crunkmonk]

@jordantheok goof1 goof2 and goof3 Lmfao!

[1991crunkmonk]

@AntiGravity909 can you simplify that or do you got to think about that too lol

[AntiGravity909]

google the tsuka maki people are doing to their swords from cold steel so sick dude might be better than ur buddys tape since they last so long show some love

[AntiGravity909]

i believe if u apply that that it will debunk the myths for u because shoaling kung fu already did that

[AntiGravity909]

google 18 movements of boti darma google the correct spelling apply it to ur form it would bring u to the next level for sure

[AntiGravity909]

ill admit ur vids should be the cold steel test commercial keep up the constant abuse but ur not debunking martial arts bro

[jordantheok]

@AntiGravity909 no i havent gotten to that yet i got side tracked. I do, however, intend as martial artiest to address some of the big martial arts myths out there in the near future. thanks for commenting.

[jordantheok]

@AntiGravity909 Oh I forgot to say one thing; I never said i wanted to "debunk martial arts".

What I will be doing in the future is debunking martial arts myths and even the common idiotic anti martial artiest skepticism I see in the you tube "Tactical community" that I have seen.I will do a lot more videos about common miss conceptions than major stuff at first. So if there was some confusion there I hope cleared it up : ) 

[AntiGravity909]

love that u put cold steel to ur gorilla test tho for sure

[AntiGravity909]

i don't see why id have to maker a vid to prove my self to u u have no form the fact that u think can de bunk martial arts with ur wannabe conan moves is rich go to a dojo learn some real form then make vids about how ur skills are quote and quote competent

[TimTheSwordsman]

is ace red handed i mean left handed

[jordantheok]

@TimTheSwordsman nope the vid got all cross wired i wondered if someone would notice. your the first. watch any other sparring vid of ours in the back yard and you can clearly see that. lol nice.

[TimTheSwordsman]

is ace red handed

[Anathar88]

Just curious, I've seen a sparring video with you, foxfire, and another guy who uses a sword and shield. What is his name? I can't find the video on youtube, so I'm taking the liberty of putting the comment meant for THAT video onto THIS video: Maybe he should get the CS one handed training sword instead of using the hand and a half with a shield. To me, that makes more sense. Or does he already have one? I have not a friggin clue. More's the pity, I suppose.

[jordantheok]

@Anathar88 yup i had to take that vid dawn because i didn't like it lol but ya that "bokken" wasn't out yet when we made that vid. ill have to get one soon i kinda want to try it. we will put out more sparring vids when we get time. thanks for commenting.

[Anathar88]

I have both the Hand-and-a-half training sword and regular bokken, though I tend to favor the latter more than the former, mostly because the hand-and-a-half is a little blade heavy and the grip is narrow and not so comfortable to my hands. You're very clever to customize the handles to suit your needs. I can't wait till I get the new Gladius training sword from cold steel. In my opinion, the use of Polypropylene for training swords is probably the only smart thing that Cold Steel has ever done.

[jordantheok]

@Anathar88 yup the hand and a half is a bit blade heavy but the handle is supposed to be narrow for the way it is wielded, but still a bit narrow for my taste abusively. yup thanks for rolling on in the comments. : )

[julot9999]

You guys are good swordmans.

[jordantheok]

@julot9999 thanks.... we have our moments lol. we haven't managed too catch our good fights yet but for now on we will have to film when we spar until we do have a really good one. : )

[JRMK969]

how much would u say they weigh?

[jordantheok]

@JRMK969 the O katana and the hand and a half about 2.5 to2.8lbs practically the same as there real counterparts

[DevilhunterGaara1]

how tall are u guys cause im 6"0 and idk if i should get a regular CS bokken katana or O Bokken CS katana

[jordantheok]

@DevilhunterGaara1 I, the white one am 6 ft 3 and my brother is 6ft 4. i would suggest the O bokken if you are 6ft.

[DevilhunterGaara1]

@jordantheok mkay thank you for the tip u guys are good btw

[jordantheok]

@DevilhunterGaara1 thanks.

[Stratocaster05]

In regard to the sharp tips: I took a couple passes of 50 grit sandpaper to the kissaki of mine and it was fully blunt. It took all of two seconds and I highly recommend you DO blunt the tip because it is REALLY dangerous without some sort of temper on the tip.

[jordantheok]

@Stratocaster05 yup we do blunt the tips, thanks for taking the time to comment we did annotate the hole sand paper thing, what I said before was just stupid. yup we do recommend blunting the tips of all practice swords.

[Leontheon]

Hey, can I ask you what you used to wrap around the handle

on the immatation katana?

[jordantheok]

@Leontheon self adhering bandage

[enryuxzero]

the only problem i have with this is the comment about the hand guard being too big because real guards vary in size and shape depending on the design also i know places that can make newones in allmost any design you want

[jordantheok]

@enryuxzero We weren't really critiquing the guard size on the o bokken; we like it we were just jabbing at the guard size of the o katana, we should have stuck to this revue but we couldn't get over how small the guard was on the o katana in contrast to its size, i guess i can see where you made that mistake though. thanks for the comment will be more clear in the future.

[omoneer]

Where did you get your swords? Also, do you know any one-handed swords?

[jordantheok]

@omoneer true swords. what do you mean by know any one handed swords? if you mean one handed practices swords than they sell that too if you mean real than that too.

[redith137]

Haha damn guys. I thought i was good but watching you guys....I need to step my game up

[jordantheok]

@redith137 we were feeling good but we are out of shape lol. thanks for the comment dude.

[Reycabu]

is a solid piece of polypropylene?; es una pieza solida de polipropileno?

[jordantheok]

@Reycabu i am lead to believe that it is a hard shell of polypropylene surrounding a dense close cell foam core : )

[ShadowSword32]

Im hearing a LOT about the quality, so I'm gonna try to get one...

[jordantheok]

@ShadowSword32 alright its worth it .thanks for the comment .
