Okay, this is probably posted somewhere but as an outsider to kendo and kumdo, what is gonkyo and why do kendo people do it and kumdo people not do it. I do Dekiti Tirsia Sirada kali, I have don Mugai Ryu Iaido, so I have literally no dog in this disagreement. I am a fan of all things to do with swords, however, and the gonkyo thing came up in another post. Why do it, why not do it?
