[jewman36]

They suxz

[DerSpartaner]

@jewman36

Its kind of outdated and 4 years old. Check my later movies to see improvment.

[BigLugiaga]

@jewman36 I can't stand when ignorant kids with no experience say silly things like this. Hate to break it to you jewman, but you could not even swing a bokken half as fast as the guys in this video. And just because you like to pretend you can fight because you watch anime cartoons, doesn't mean you know even the first thing about martial arts of any kind.

[TomoeMichieru]

@thecgh He who attempts to learn swordsmanship completely on his own has a fool for a teacher.

[gottitgood4me]

@TomoeMichieru The first swordsman must have been a fool.

[OldBlue646]

@gottitgood4me Yeaa the japaneese have been perfecting the art of the sword and katana for thousands of years and only centuries of war have proven which styles were the most effective so do ur hw b4 u talk shit

[gottitgood4me]

@OldBlue646 I didnt realize I was talking shit?

[OldBlue646]

@gottitgood4me oh shit my bad i thought u were being sarcastic

[OldBlue646]

@gottitgood4me actually its crazy that u check on ur posts from almost a year ago, nice work

[sunwado]

Its really good to see proper and dangerous sparring with wooden swords as it was realy done.

[Wild1990Child]

Very cool stuff - always thought the guy in the Gi was pretty awesome with a bokken. One thing I noticed though is that compared to a katana that was sized for each warrior, all bokken are the same size, and can be easily used with one hand... could anyone tell me why this is?

[hellerZauberer]

@thecgh haha, closed their account. must not have been able to back it up :P

[lopytube]

why does it seem that the guy with the gee(spell check)on is not acting like he knows when he woulda got caught

[LiutendantJack777]

lame

[pacificaspieler]

hey ich möchte gerne lernen mit dem bokken zu kämpfen aber ich mag kendo nicht so gerne weil wenn mans ich nen kampf ansieht dsauert das immer nur so 2 sekunden und nur ein schlag oder mir gefällt kenjutsu viel ebsser. das hier is doch kenjustu oder ?

[guyver20]

then kendo guy pretty much had the fight in the bag as the other guy in the green shirt was not too aware of distance and had his feet too stiff and planted to deeply into the ground whereas the kendo guy kept his footwork light and springy and sank into his stance only when he struck

[tubetubetube]

Hi, i have some question. Why do you bang the sword like they are sticks? Isent the the point of the exercise is to act like it real(do cuts)? Also why the twit in green swing like he playing baseball? Thanks, TTT.

[DerSpartaner]

We need kind to bang, because without protection this seems he only way to keep it kind of safe.

And the thing about baseball: Yes, that looks dumb. But I improved on that. This vid is kind a 2 years old. Thx. :-)

[Stupidddd90210]

@tubetubetube maby he plays the sport and thats how he gets more power in his swings

[pikaczova]

matko co za parodia gdzie wy się kendo uczyliście żal

[PCDental1]

Awesome control and very nice skills. :D

[PCDental1]

It's easy to talk negative. But I ask you to visit them and train with them. Open your mind and your ass will follow. Talk is cheap!

[Sin1fist]

i wana spar with yous guys

[aikidokadokandojo]

what form is the aiki guy ? Kendo ?

[Ghettofitness]

It seems like something near that, but its stil far far away from kenjutsu or like...

oss

[kungfuasgaeilge]

I always wonder why bokken don't have tsuba

[DerSpartaner]

Actually they have some, but we don´t use them.

In sparring it´s to dangerous from MY opinion, because with a tsube you can build ab much pressure to the enemys sword and sometimes the swords flip from each other and you hit your opponent with full pressure which can cause serious injuries and broken bones as well ;-)

[kungfuasgaeilge]

Oh right! I suppose I'd have to spar with tsubas attached myself to fully understand what you mean. Great vid btw, you can really learn alot from watching free sparring. 5*

[mightydagon]

Kashima Shinto Ryu uses tsuba and that has happened once or twice. However, due to the nature of the system, we still use them cuz broken fingers will ensue without them. Especially with the thick bokken Kashima uses. I prefer the bokken we use in Shinto Muso Ryu, a bit lighter and quicker.

[gbrtforever]

The extending Stab. I tend to it q little too often myself. It can often times come back to bite you in the butt. Its great when you get it though.

[savagesnowball]

You think I should get a couple of bokken blades and spar with a friend?

[belisariusorb]

Do some training with a legitimate sensei first

[savagesnowball]

I don't know. I have some fairly powerful skills. I feel I can step it up more than that.

[belisariusorb]

All skills need guidance and training. If you just practice yourself without instruction from a master, you're never going to be as good as those who have trained.

[savagesnowball]

I still think I have fantastic technique. MAybe not the same as the typical Samurai, but skill nonetheless.

[pimp500000]

you are all stupid kenjutsu is awsome aikido is awsome and in aikido they teach you some kenjutsu!!!!!!!!!! self taght ha give me a break you just think kenjutsu is all about fighting and killing its about the art of it the history its not just pysical its mental to like over coming fers and patiance not whoa that was cool

[DerSpartaner]

We are going to get better ;-)

[leaufroid]

i am really looking foward.......

[DerSpartaner]

Me 2 :-(

[hwarrang33]

the hakama guy is Aikido , the attack is very weak, but is ok.

[MichaPlaya]

Is der im Hakama ein Aikidoka? Seine Technik sieht mir danach aus.^^

[Brycee]

Why the hell is the other guuy dressed like he is?

[nii87]

Guy in the hakama looks like Aikido, but I'm not sure. Not Kenjutsu.
