  • Thanks for the education of the parts of the sword.

  • @thitichaiwongmanee it can be either way even though ray skin is more traditional

  • Musashi sword?

  • It is sting ray skin, yes there are many types but shark is not one of them. It is a blood groove and these competition types, not battle ready, have the groove to create sound. If it was a true hand forged sword using the metal composition the ancients used the sword would not dull after seven cuts. It would be very hard to dull period.

  • what noop, better he stays with his aikido lol, maybe he is better adjucated in!

  • Blood grove...FAIL its a Fuller used for lighting

  • where's the technique?!?

  • rays are a type of shark. and its cald a bohi not a blood groove

  • @perfectshot77 Well judging by the sai's shape it would be very defensive but a katana is very hard and can maybe be strong enough to cut the sai. thumbs up if you agree ...

  • @perfectshot77 in some respects your probably right as si's are used two at i timee however they are very short and samurais would have carried atleast two swords anyway
