    I just got a Katana. This is a great beginner guide. The swinging came natural to me, as I've owned other types of long swords. It's the sheathing/unsheating I needed help with, since the other swords I've used were supposed to be docked on the left hip. But I think I got it now. It seems that video games get that part wrong too.

    Having purchased a Katana a few years ago I quickly realized how dangerous they are. The cutting ability and how easily it penetrates things gave me a lot of respect for it. It is not a weapon to take lightly. I keep mine sheathed and only take it out on rare occasions to keep it oiled. It would have been amazing to have had the opportunity early in life to properly train with them.

      I must respect and admire your dedication and reflection but it is never too late...if you've been cut, you know the heat and pain it brings and the safety it ensures and I say you still have the strength and capability to use your weaponry, regardless of weight, with the speed and precision of a leaf in a gale

  • @DigSamurai
    @DigSamurai Год назад

    Well done you're a good teacher. The only thing I would add is that it's important to remember the left hand stays in the center of the body for diagonal cuts. The sword pivots around the left hand not the right.

      I think that's not humanely possible, if I'm correct, the speed at which the sword is shot from the sheath is so big that you would actually dislocate and break your whole arm if you tried to grab it or smth

    • @Lif3OfAMV
      @Lif3OfAMV 5 месяцев назад

      this is totally late but maybe you still need the answer, or another left handed person may stumble across this
      in todays world, you can wield your katana left handed, use your right for power and left to stop and control. however if you were a left handed samurai back in the let’s say the edo period, you’d be trained to wield the katana right handed despite being left handed.
      he explained why, if samurai could chose which side to equip their swords, as you’re walking you may bang scabbards with a fellow samurai, which would probably lead to a fight considering how important these swords were to these men
