No. There's no hard evidence anywhere to explain what they were for, but MY suspicion, based on the fact that they're not actually useful for climbing but do have that fancy quick deploy feature, is that they might've been used AFTER someone has climbed a tree, and needs a way of holding on one-handed to a tree trunk while they pick fruit with the other. These then *could* be used by scouts to remain up a tree out of sight for extended periods, which *might be why they got associated with ninjas. But that's all total guesswork.

[@midashitegamer5264]

Lowering it won’t just work you’d have to make sure you realign it perfectly with whatever angle their holding and you’re not an experinced sword fighter so you’d fail to do so. He even mentions the angle he’s using the lock up the movement

"I can just step off to the side" Spears being the most effective weapon: 😐

[@foxxowoxxowillow7855]

Better yet: Just move the sword slightly to the side. Unless the sword-wielding person in question is completely overcommitting for literally no reason, there is absolutely no reason they can't just adjust mid-swing. That, or they could just thrust. A thing almost every sword can do, including katanas.

[@Idiotic_impulses]

​@@foxxowoxxowillow7855exactly, under the original video I saw people trying to say it could actually work if someone commits to a swing, as if someone can't change direction of their swing most of the way through it. People just believe anything online for some reason

[@cathanoneal5915]

​@@Idiotic_impulsesyeah ive seen a few videos of this guy, him and his fans are completely delusional 😂😂😂

[@daveski7]

​@@Idiotic_impulsesthe idea that people think they swing swords like throwing a punch is quite funny. The power of a sword comes from the wielders wrist usually. Blades are sharp and you hardly need any pressure to cut skin, so doing quick light movements from the wrists is better than swinging from the body or from the shoulders.

Ofcourse how to dodge a sword: dodge it

[@crowe6961]

It's rather instinctual, I dodged a couple of spear thrusts to the head last time I did group sparring with them. Still took plenty of hits though. The trick is keeping well-balanced so you don't get pushed off-balance and levered or shoved to the ground.

@@pegasusrr3156 let me introduce you to little concept this guys limp wrists aren't holding that blade locked in with a real opponent that actually moves and there's no way on this earth that someone is holding their hand in that position and having any degree of stability in keeping the blade where they want it to be all it'd take is a little resistance to make his grip on the blade slip you really have no clue what you're waffling about my guy

[@markopolo1271]

@@pegasusrr3156 there's also the fact that you assume he'd ever be able to pull this kinda bullshito off in real life people don't wait for you to pull of your special moves my guy this technique is functionally useless and relies on nothing but wishful thinking. There's a reason why real offhand sword catching daggers were daggers and not gauntlets or wrist mounted spikes and that reason is simply just leverage and biomechanics the wrist is a fairly weak structure as is so when you put all the force directly into your wrists in this manner with this range of motion it's just foolish because it's just not ideal use of your bodies biomechanics you ideally want a stable and stronger way to grip a blade like this and that's why they used daggers with slots in the blade instead because it utilises the stronger range of movement of the wrist and arms combined as apposed to the weaker movements you see here with these wrist spikes. Also the name swordbreaker as in the historical offhanded daggers isn't something that is literal it's also misleading because they don't break swords but jams the opponents blade between the slots in the blade it's also worth noting that those daggers slots were specifically designed to trap blades and weren't just spikes they had arrow shaped cutouts which made entrapping a blade far more effective than just metal spikes on a wrist mount so yeah it'd be fairly easy to slip outta these wrist spikes due to several reasons mainly being that they're smooth spikes and mounted to a wrist makes this a very poor tool for trapping a blade
