Why Train with a Sword?
I train in a system where the sword is the omote or outside and our aikijujutsu in the ura or inside. The reason to train with a sword is it demands the most out of you. A sword does not care who you are and what your opinion of yourself is. If you mess up with the sword you get cut and that shows you that hey guess what you did that wrong don't do that again. Combat with bladed weapons is the highest of all human combat you don't get second chances you only get one chance to win and continue on protecting the ones that you care for. That is a quick an dirty of why I train with a sword.
