samurai sword - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #25248 9 posts Started by spunky393
Just curious if there are any user's on 6GC. I own a Tsunami Katana and practice with it often. I study Karate-Do Kyohan, and love it very much. Thought I would just share and see if there is anybody into martial arts and swordsmanship

The most important lesson I learned from Karate-Dô Kyôshan–“You can not be what you do not believe you are”
im actually considering learning the art of the sword. theres a samurai dojo down the block where i work and i can get a discounted membership. it would definitely be cool to learn.

That's very neat that you're interested. I love the art, and ya know, it's just as calm as yoga or anything else. Yoga to me is a waste of time, why not learn something you may need. Don't buy a cheap sword. Buy a nice tiger fold katana, or maybe a training sword like mine, or just the same as mine. you'll be please with it. My sword is 40" (the whole thing) and 2.5 pounds

I've wanted one for a long time, but they're so expensive. Well the real ones.

I've been practicing for about 4 years, only had one mistake where I brought the blade down in my palm and pushed it to the back of my arm well I messed up on the spin and sliced my elbow open. I have three swords one for decoration, one for one handed use, and one for two handed. I started practicing force use like the samauri since that is what it's made for.
i have a hatori hanzo...lol
