@ShinobiNoTodai Oh I see, and I didn't know that fact about reflecting the light onto the opponent, makes sense! Many thanks again!

Does Kasumi no Kamae have other names?

@BasementBeginnings Hmm...it very well may have a different name in another Samurai school/lineage, but I learned it as Kasumi under Shihan Woodard.

@ShinobiNoTodai Thanks for the reply! I was curious because I recall seeing it somewhere as "Mist stance" or "Haze stance", and wondered if that was the rough translation of "Kasumi no Kamae."

@BasementBeginnings That sounds about right. "Kasumi" does mean "haze", and "no Kamae" means "Posture of" (some of the word order is backwards in Japanese). So it translates (roughly) as "Posture of Haze". It's called that since the blade can be used to reflect light into the opponent. Thanks for the comment!
