Cool 🤺

[@TechnicalPluto]

Armor up to protect the head and pressure test it with speed and power. This would be informative.

[@karlrichmond7754]

It's been pressure tested on the battlefield

[@tochiro6902]

Thanks so much.

[@-RONNIE]

Thanks to everyone that participated in the video 👍🏻

[@strettoasino9006]

When RUclips channels play well together...

[@warriorethic]

Antony, is it OK if I email you? I may have a resource that can help with application of the techniques you're trying to decipher...at the very least some general principles to follow when it comes to blades.

[@MicahCTheory]

It’s hard to tell from the video. Does this require a grip change? It looks like the sword twists in the hand. Not something you see in Japanese swordsmanship, typically.

[@AntonyCummins]

No not really. You twist out the thumb but the handle stays where it is

[@Imationaryman]

Block with the mune the least strength in the blade, it is known blades can break by blocking with the mune. Various other schools kata deliberately block with the ha.

[@warriorethic]

That block does not appear to be strong. Realistically, an overhead strike crashes through that block. Does the reference actually mention blocking with the mune? IMO, the technique should be done with sword pointing to the right while laterally moving to your left or a forward left 45 degree step. Opponent's strike likely deflected to your right with the strike's momentum carrying it downward. Circle your sword around and strike your opponent's neck on their right side with downward diagonal slash. Alternatively, you can use a thrust but it feels awkward and it is slower. And yes I have performed the technique. It works best when your opponent is over committed.
