Hi all

I am starting to learn japanese sword fighting. Can you suggest any webpages where I can find lablled diagrams of sword and sword parts. In fact any webpages with a history of japanese swords would be great.

I held my instructors sword on my first lesson. It was heavy:). is their an average weight of a sword?

Cheers Dom:asian:

Thanks for those websites.:)

In my second lesson, I found out that I would be learning toyama Ryu; the sword fighting techniques of the Japanese Army WWII era.

Enjoying learning around the sword. :) .

Hi Dom,

How's the kenjutsu going? I remember you mentioning having found an instructor when you visited London ages back, the training sounds like an awesome find.
