Shinkendo Nitoken - The Art of 2 Swords

2 years ago
30

Here Toshishiro Obata, the founder of Shinkendo, provides an introduction to 2 sword techniques. A single sword is commonly deemed best because it allows the swordsman the ability to swing the sword with the greatest strength possible.

However, 2 swords allows the swordsman the ability to block and strike, therefore sacrifices a little strength but gained a little defensive ability.

Here Obata Sensei shows the foundational aspects of Nitoken. Attached is a extract from a Seminar he held on the topic.
