気剣体一致の妙：剣法訣七・八本目

居想会は江戸時代末に途絶えてしまった無外流を研究し、その形を再現しようと日々剣法の稽古にも力を入れています。
流祖辻月丹の記した「無外流真伝剣法訣」は、全文が漢文で、剣法の形を記した十訣の解説も禅語によって抽象的な表現のみにとどめられ、形そのものの動きについてはかたられ­ていません。
形の参考となるものは姫路藩に伝わり、おそらく十本を五本に置き換えた「刃引之形」と
月丹の師であった山口卜真斎が一刀流であったことから、無外流もその影響を大きくうけたものと推測できることぐらいである。それでもおぼろげながらに見えてくるものはあり­ます。
辻月丹が浄土から居想会の十訣をみたら「ずいぶんと儂の残したものと違うな」と言うに違いありません。しかし、「形は違うが目指してゆく道はわるくはない」と言われるよう­な形に昇華してゆきたいと思います。

I love how I don't necessarily understand his verbal instructions, but his and his pupil's actions explain it all.

@stupidichigo99 no,becuase your like that for a fraction of a second. the way its angled with the downward force of the deflect wont make you drop it.

Wouldn't you lose your grip of the sword in a real fight, holding it like that?

[yusufnurhadi]

as in 1:55, in real speed, the sword is quickly risen and slightly rotated so the impact point will be on the "shinogi" of the katana.

[yusufnurhadi]

@ContradictoryNature actually when deflecting blows, we use the side of the sword, and the angle is quite sharp so the impact taken both to the sword and the wielder is minimized. Of course sharp edges never be used to block attacks, otherwise the sword may be cracked or broken.

[ContradictoryNature]

I'd like to ask a question, does the style have anything to say about the issue of blocking sword blows with the sharp of the blade? Wouldn't that damage the cutting edge, or is the angle of deflection enough to allow the opponent's blade to glide off without damaging the sharp?
