Edo period length and ownership restrictions
oli replied to Mikaveli's topic in General Nihonto Related Discussion
There was no need of that. In Edo time, you don't usually fight against people in Yoroi, or why should you want to cut a trough a complete body? You should maybe try a real Kenjutsu Koryu. -

Shure, but to swing a real sword is something different then a iaito. Not shure but i think you training Seitojo (?), where ist also katas in Shinto Muso Ryu with Wakizashi or Jitte against Katana. So you have to learn to survive with all different Maai and disadvantage of the weapon. -

As a beginner i would only buy from trusted source, like the sell section in this forum. So how i startet. There is also some trusted commercial seller i think. The Problem in europe, i think, the most commercial seller here only sell very expensive nihonto witch start with 10k Euro. You can also have a look on link list in this forum. And buy some beginner books look in the faq.
