My English is not really good but im asking if there´s a Kenjutsu or Kendo style where you use not only the sword, the sheat too to hit the oponent or defend yourself, and if it was used in real combat.

Thank you all.

@RKNELIAS Yes.Yagyu Shingan Ryu comes to mind.

Miyamoto Musashi developed a style with in one hand a katana and in the other a bokuto. And I haven't seen schools who teach kata's or randori with two swords. If you wan't to learn this, I suggest you search for a traditional sensei in Japan. The founder of my school (Tomita Seiji Shihan) once mentioned if you wan't to learn this, it's best to go to japan, because elsewhere it's not authentic but made up by the sensei.

@Dizine456 Nito Kendo: youtube.com/watch?v=UN6G09JGix­0

[hellothereimasian]

because they dont actually practice or study battou or kenjutsu they just watch anime.

@Eshonion89 Does that really matter?

@RedSamurai1991 Bushido is modern and was originally written in English by a Japanese Christian living in the United States...maybe you should check your history again?

@Dizine456 Musashi usually fought with two bokens, his skills were so developed that he didn't even need swords to defeat his opponents.

@mekugi it was ment for the other commenter having ago at u or some1 elese i dont really know how to use this youtube crap

[mekugi]

@RedSamurai1991 Who are you talking to? What is this about Samurai? Huh??

[RedSamurai1991]

@hellothereimasian u have hit the nail on the head there

[RedSamurai1991]

i dont see were u have the right to tell this person he/she is wrong when what u have said is not histrolly correct , i have spent my life time dedicated to learning and practiceing Bushido and Kenjutsu and made it a chour to study samurai history to its fullist. i do not say this to critersize but to make u relise that u are just as unexperinced in ur knowledge of Samurai and there sword technique/styles as the person u critizied.

@Dizine456 I believe that there has been a BIG misunderstanding somewhere. I have never, ever not once seen a bokuto/shinken combo. That stinks of rubbish. As for Nito randori: You haven't looked hard enough. Kendo did (does) Nito randori. Furthermore there were/are OTHER schools BEFORE Musashi Miyamoto that used nito. For example, Tenshinshoden Katori Shinto Ryu used Nito. There are also other schools as well WAY before Musashi that did it as well. You'd better re-check! .
