I might be in the wrong here. But I thought that some of the point with the small Men attack is that it is not so much of a cut as knife slice. You place your sword in the forehead of your opponent, then you lock your hands with tenouchi, whereupon you have your whole body weight behind your sword and is fast moving forward using it as a knife. Not nice.
