why would u slam your blade hard back into your saya and damage the koiguchi in the process? to damage the saya is quite disgusting to samurai

[raabrashi]

It's not actually slamming the blade back, though I can understand that it might look that way. It's actually just a quick out/in motion that does not actually connect with the koiguchi. It is the "signature" of my teacher's style. It also is in indication that the blade can be drawn again at any moment. In fact, if you hear the "click" of the tsuba connecting with the saya, you've done it incorrectly.

Great forms, don't worry about Krzysiek. I've seen him/her post the SAME comment on other iaido vids...obviously they are very immature.

Keep up the great work Raabrashi

This guy is a good teacher to boot =)

Id like to point you that your gedan chiburi is a little too far to the side. the tip should be on the same line as your right shoulder as an engarde position into a thrust if enemy attacks again

[MindfulSiljunDobup]

It's a good question in light of the controversy concerning Hadong Gumdo's claim to an authentic Korean tradition and traditional style of fighting more than one opponent on the battlefield etc.

Unlike Hadong Gumdo teachers, G Master Seong has never made claims that Silun Dobup is somehow authentically Korean. Like many Korean Kumdo teachers he also teaches a "real sword" or metal sword class on the side. His style is influenced by his experience in Japan but there are also unique elements.
