I just don't think swords are too in these days. They are kinda hard to conceal and get around airport security with. Any thoughts? -
I practice 2 different sword styles, one is Ono ha itto ryu kenjutsu, one is Enshin Ryu Iaijutsu.
I think the reason they arent mentioned much here is because these forums are very much H2H / practical defence Based.
The reason for sword training is not really to learn how to fight with a sword in defence of yourself.
It is far more to do with teaching timing, control, focus, balance, awarness and for some it is a spiritual disipline
most of which are very applicable to defence.
So shall we discuss swordplay then?? especially since toe is having a hernia in anger that it is never discussed!

When i began learning to use a sword(very recently) I never expected that i would be walking down the street and have to try to defend myself with it.
Some swords can be concealed, a friend of mine has a bamboo walking cane that is actually a katana, the handle is bamboo and so is the sheath, they meet at a joint in the "bamboo"
and dammit its no hernia im having a coniption fit lol.
