Tameshigiri James Williams sensei Nami ryu

Here is a collage of tameshigiri from some different aspects. Cutting from seiza drawing and cutting with the kodachi with the left hand as well as drawing and cutting with the right. For Samurai when drawing the sword from the obi when you are sitting in seiza it will be the wakizashi/kodachi as the Samurai did not sit in Seiza with the katana in their obi, that is a modern practice.

That's alot of money real quick! Nice cuts!

[@KarmaFlight]

Watching you insights a feeling of awe. I realize that you did not achieve this overnight, and I am grateful that you are keeping this tradition alive. I own several of your CRKT knives and I truly enjoy them.

Irving,

[@TheOneAndOnlySame]

You make it look so easy. I know it's not, at all.

Question: what length and weight/balance point of katana would you recommend for beginner if they can only afford one?

[@infinitemartialist]

I've been rather curious for a while. Do you have an opinion for the ko-katana? I think it can also be known as a kodaichi, so to clarify, the mid-size sword with about a 10" tsuka and anywhere between a 22-24" blade?

[@jimmyhor78]

What model Wakizashi was used here?

[@TheNEOONE1]

More cutting, less bullshit.
