Guys and Girls,

In light of the actions of recent donkeys on KWF, perhaps its time for a new association that encompasses iaido, kendo and kenjutsu. We will draw techniques from Yagyu Shinkage Ryu, Katori Shinto Ryu, Rurouni Kenshin Ryu, Itto Ryu, Niten Ichi Ryu and Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu. Bokken sparring is expected, as is paired shinken kata practice.

Anyone interested?

[UncoonsKala]

I only have a ninja-to; can I join too?

[GoveMoony]

Only if it is sharp. Pointless being a kenshi with a non-pointy sword.

Hehe, pointless. Ah, forget it...

Oblio, the boy without a point.

and has less then 6 inches of tang inside the handle, those tang-almost-to-end-of-the-tsuka swords are only for those who don't have the skill to dodge sharp blades flying across the dojo.

[Licacivelip]

Yep. Good idea.

We got the weapons sorted - now, how about techniques? Any Kenshin otaku in the house?

[Zs3ZASpA]

Shouldn't prongs on your tsuba and a few spikes on your hand painted florescent men also be mandatory?

[Blellurgews]

You forgot the Zatoichi ryu...

[agrismhig]

Reverse blade, Battle Ready Katanas as well

[bixlewlyimila]

Common Scott why not let us use live swords.

We let the beginners spar the seniors, to make it easier on the beginners we give the beginners 2 swords and the senior only 1 sword cause they already should know how it works.

What do you think.

And armours aren't needed.

Geez why even use bogu's they are too heavy and give me already an headache when I get hit by some.

[redDoodia]

Must have
DUELS!!!!

[Feloascarlelt]

No, No, you have that double-vodka. I'll be in the corner kicking the cat...

[ssyyyrruho]

I would like to apply, but the only sword I have is a semi-blunt bread knife (habiki?!). Though in my quest as a samurai it has already helped me deal justice to a dead cat I found on the street, 3 garden chairs when I got bored, and my mate Dave's ear (again) when we were playing knifey-knifey. Don't ask.

[FateHostera]

Common Scott why not let us use live swords.

They are mandatory. All pointy swords must be pointy...

Mr Gibson, you may be the official swordsmaster, providing you are capable of hurling your kitchen knife into the crowd while doing embu. If so, your new dojo name can be 'Javelin Al' Gibson.

[NutChusty]

Scott I do hope you'll choose some nice colorfull uniforms too.

That black and blue doesn't show enough blood splatter.

[VIAGRA-VIAGRA]

Actually, I was thinking of full-on montsuki/kimono and grey-striped hakama - maybe even kamishimo (seeing as we are samurai)...

[erubresen]

I will wear womens underwear on my head over my tenegui and when I take part in a duel my squire shall carry my standard upon which shall be inscribed:
背部にある前部および茶色にある黄色

[alexosnasos2]

is the new association going to teach how to defend yourselves against anyone who attacks you armed with a piece of fresh fruit?
