Antony Cummins Backs Out

[@Jon_Hing]

Wasn't Anthony Cummin's the guy who showed a video of himself riding a sheathed kanata like a stick horse while "maneuvering though the bushes?

[@gerald.j.greysmith]

That sucks. No one ever challenges me. I'm jealous. Well, anyway, back to driving. My work never ends.

[@jackreacher4488]

I'll challenge you. Not very good with a sword though. Grappling?

[@gerald.j.greysmith]

@@jackreacher4488 if we go slowly, sure thing. I'm dainty and very weak.

Antony Cummins seems to sucker in new groups of KZbinrs. Why no one questions his academic credentials. How he can get away with his interpretation of an interpretation of a native Japanese speakers translation of Ancient Japanese. Hopefully no one ever gets hurt from his actions. After seeing him attempt to remove his weapon from a scabbard. I thought he was trying to funny. Good video.

Anthony is a delusional clown.

[@bmxriderforlife1234]

You hear about the people he sent after a female because of an argument on a budo forum?

[@jackwolf3200]

Oh man, that's really unfortunate. I've read a couple of his books and rather liked them, but of course, I am no expert as you are, Don. I very much enjoy your books.

[@charlesartificer2158]

So that was your son! Lmao good one Don. So sorry to see another one back out again. Hey maybe we could try crowd funding next time. Everyone chip in to buy the next guy a plane ticket to Colorado. Not give them money, but reserve them a ticket.

As I understand it it was during his research of old koryu he discovered there were still living descendants of this particular sword style, a family that held all the documents. He went to them and asked permission to resurrect the old school n bring it alive again and they said he yes. And off he went to create uniforms n flags n all the documentation he needed to restart this old family sword school. Of course new you tube videos for each step of this were posted, asking viewers which uniforms were the best looking etc. I think a true martial artist would never even disclose that he was doing all that. He'd have gone off to study someone you'd never know who he was. But in this day of likes n constant attention he went very public. It's not the true way. But it's not against the law to be foolish....

[@roninnotasheeplikeyou.2631]

Lmao! You are as delusional as Anthony is!

[@bmxriderforlife1234]

Yeah nah its bs. He found a copy of the book at a Japanese antique book shop and it's not the only copy. There's just not many originals and he's the only person to rewrite it. He's changed his story multiple times. He also didn't ask permission, he just did it.
