I am repeatedly told that 'jitte' is more formal than 'jyutte'. These are the first five ura waza and the eleventh one called Isseiken. Ura means the more enigmatic reverse side.
"I am repeatedly told that 'jitte' is more formal than 'jyutte'."
Why? Same thing :), different schools have different names for the weapon- none is more proper than the other. Ura just means "back" or "behind", which usually implies "older" in koryu bujutsu, generally speaking.
Ura meaning older? Never heard that. Usually I only hear that in "ura no senke" or "omote no senke" nowadays. Matsui's book calls Kaminoda's version of tachi otoshi the "ura waza" though in that case it was originally a variation on the basic technique.
@mekugi mekugi, why are your videos so amazing? how do you get all of these amazing videos? out of all youtube channels, for traditional japanese martial arts yours is truly the best i've found. . . and youtube is a large network of people . . .
The title is a bit misleading :). The left guy is actually using two weapons in some kata. One is the Jutte, (baton), the other a tessen (war-fan). :-)
The power of ten hands. Wonderful. Thanks for posting!
