Just curious if there are any user's on 6GC. I own a Tsunami Katana and practice with it often. I study Karate-Do Kyohan, and love it very much. Thought I would just share and see if there is anybody into martial arts and swordsmanship

[right][snapback]291871[/snapback][/right] That's very neat that you're interested. I love the art, and ya know, it's just as calm as yoga or anything else. Yoga to me is a waste of time, why not learn something you may need. Don't buy a cheap sword. Buy a nice tiger fold katana, or maybe a training sword like mine, or just the same as mine. you'll be please with it.

I've wanted one for a long time, but they're so expensive. Well the real ones.

I've been practicing for about 4 years, only had one mistake where I brought the blade down in my palm and pushed it to the back of my arm well I messed up on the spin and sliced my elbow open. I have three swords one for decoration, one for one handed use, and one for two handed. I started practicing force use like the samauri since that is what it's made for.
