  • I see, I think that is understandable. As I study toyama-ryu. I am going to have to have my mother order for me, however, as I am a younger practiconer. I hope there will be no troubles, 3 years off from being a legal adult. :D

  • nice swift cuts!

    I like it

  • keep practicing, never mind what the other say. no one was born with the knowledge of cutting, you must practice a lot to improve. there are a lot of videos on the internet, try consulting them, if you don't have a sensei in your neighborhood. a little tip: start with body posture and footwork. if your body posture is correct before, during and after cutting the cutting itself comes natural and feels (and looks) better.

  • You guys should seriously take down this video.

  • you have no idea how to use this properly, you're gonna hurt yourself or someone else.

    smeriously.

    please be safe

  • fuck that try cut the steel legs from the table i wanna see the damage on the blade before i spend my 200.

  • @swordsofmight constructive criticism, or just to make u feel bad lol

  • dude you are totally retarded, put down the sword before you hurt yourself.

  • me want sword

  • Hands are not too close together. Granted, it's a longer tsuka, I have one myself. But traditional tsuka were much, much shorter, and the cutting method in many Japanese schools rely on the lower hand for most of the power. The hands twist inward as you cut, and the blade arcs up and out, down and in. In order to do this you can't have your hands too far *apart*, or you'll have to use a different cutting technique altogether. Not saying he cuts in this way, just saying that it's not too close.

  • But if it Is, I could barely see the Sword, only his nonexistent cutting technique, which looks like mischanan93 said: Playing baseball, sorry but you just failed.
