I love Mr. Inosanto! He was my first Kali and Silat teacher way back in late 1970's and 80's. He is such a wonderful person and inspiration. The legendary Dan Inosanto is truly the teachers teacher and a national treasure to the martial arts community. GOD bless you sir. Thank you for a great interview.

Bruce Lee was also his student. They were best friends. He taught Bruce Lee how to use Nunchucks among other things. So they were students of each other.

hes one of Sifu Bruce Lee's 1st Jeet Kune Do students. much respect and blessings to this legend.

Respect to Mr Dan Inosanto, I am in Brisbane Australia and have been to a vmcouple of his seminars, was about 24 years ago but still remember his skill and presence. Thank you for this video. Cold steel

I'm from the island of Panay in the Philippines. All households here has that kind of knife. We locally call it as "binangon". Long time ago was mainly used by ancient islanders as weapon againts invaders. Nowadays, it mostly used for chopping wood and bamboos, opening coconuts, cutting down trees and seldomly used for cooking when no kitchen is available. Back when I was in grade school my grandpa gave me one and when going to the mountains or go fishing I always carry it. Like what normal little kids in the rural areas do. I used to remember along with my childhood friends we used it for playing around, cutting down banana trees like we are samurais, crafting wooden and bamboo toys with it and also using it to help our parents make broom sticks made from coconut leaves.

Real Warriors shed tears...This is what a real Warrior/ Legend looks like! 83 and as graceful as ever...I can feel his emotion when he cries. I can see and feel how incredible he feels about the level of global recognition that he and The Phillipines have FINALLY received. Fills my heart w/ joy

My hero. My instructor. Love this man.

I can listen to his stories all day without getting bored.

"best of the best" does not even come close to describing this man's impact on multiple generations of martial artists from around the world

I had the privilege of attending the Inosanto Academy back in the mid 1990s. Thank you Guro Dan.

Thank you so much for this video. "Legend" doesn't quite do him justice. So humble and brilliant. I was fortunate to take a few seminars with him and he is utterly amazing. I remember watching him demo, and you could hear 3 to 4 hits, but could only see 2. And thanks for making the Memorial Bolo...it is wonderful. (It was the first Cold Steel sword I ever purchased.)

This was incredible in many ways. Touching, historical, educational... This humble man (he asked "can I pick it up"??? YES! Please touch my blade!) reminds me of Dr. Muang Gyi. Great teacher, strict, honest and knowledgeable. What I love most is they were MOST impressed by functionality. I can see why he loves Cold Steel! I love the name Cold Steel but functionality is always #1 for me. And Cold Steel has that in SPADES! No one beats Cold Steel. No one.

Seeing him and Grandmaster Bobby Taboada get old breaks my heart.

Mr. Inosanto is still kickin it to this day at 83. Still has many many years to come.

Thank you for this video, Cold Steel, and for making versions of our Filipino weapons. Pugay kay Guro Dan Inosanto!

I`m sure that thousands have awesome memories of this man, but this is my brief encounter with master Inosanto. I attended a seminar he did in the area back in `78. In anticipation, I arrived about 2 hours early sitting quietly and waiting in the exhibit room. He entered through a side door ....alone. I offered to help bring in his supplies. I never said anything about his fame, how much of a fan I was, or what was Bruce Lee like. Just to help with set up for the day. During the simple conversations, I discovered something that caused me to be even more impressed by him than I already was. He is a kind, gracious man of great character. I think that those few moments meant more to me than the seminar and knowledge the gave us that day.

Thank you for sharing this interview with us.

Blessings Guru Inosanto..you can tell what a beautiful heart he has...💞🙏🏼👊🏼

Thanks Mr. Thompson and all the people on Cold Steel for this wonderful video with the great Dan Inosanto!! We customers know how to show our gratitude to the Cold Steel family!!

when dan inosanto cried i burst into tears im fillipino i can feel this man love to both the us and the phillipines ! more power to you sir dan thank you so much for spreading our warrior ways you will always be on top on all fillipino FMA masters in my opinion !

Dan thank you for your service and history. My father served with the US Army 1st Filipino Battalion WW2. He was an escrima instructor and recon intelligence scout as well. He was tough like your dad and trained in the Philippines when he was young by his father. I would like to apply for his Congressional Medal posthumously as well. Thank you Cold Steel for the memorial blade!

That beautiful lady in the white shirt is Guru Dan's daughter, Diana Lee Inosanto, an accomplished martial artist herself. She just played the part of The Magistrate on The Mandalorian Season 2. She fought Ahsoka Tano in a badass fight scene. 😉👏

Awesome to hear from a legend. You know, it would be very interesting if you did a series of interviews with martial artists who have taught or inspired Lynn. Remember that CS fans are first and foremost warriors and practitioners, not just collectors, and we appreciate that connection.

As a kid, my brothers and I used the same blade to clear the brushes, with my father leading. Manong Dan calls this one on video as a talibong from Panay but, you can find this blade on the waist of Tagalog farmers in Rizal and Laguna.

Wow really amazing video ever 10out10!!! :D

respect and wisdom for a master in martial arts , thanks for this vidéo

I love this man, what he says is GOLD. Being American is to contribute to the people and Guro has accomplished that task. Mahalo nui loa manong (probably spelled incorrectly sorry) Your Boy Kekoa a Hawaiian.🇺🇸✌️😉🇺🇸

What a LEGEND 🇵🇭❤️

Really enjoyed watching this video. Mr. Inosanto is a well respected and truly great man, rich in his cultures history. I respectfully suggest the you re-edit where he becomes emotional, we can all see where he begins to get choked up and cut it where he says "cut" (eliminate the burst) continue where he states " Yeah i get too emotional". We still experience his emotions less what he may consider a little embarrassing. Out of respect.

An old master with the mind of a sage and hart of a warrior

BIG BIG RESPECT,Sir!

Thank you so much Mr. Inosanto.

I have a Recon 1 on its way to my house.

Awesome.

Thanks Dan

I’m from Panay and I know about the talibong (tuh-lee-bong). There’s a saying from our place that goes something like this: The talibong gets feverish when it can’t strike! That’s a rough translation anyway. In other words, don’t mess with visayans or you’ll end at the end of a talibong. Every household has one if my memory serves me.

Makes me think...."What a kind nice man" 🙏

This guy embodies Sylvester Stallone.

My dream is to meet this guy in person Mr. Dan Inosanto at least, since Bruce is gone.. And i hope this dream of mine would someday come true.

Great man 😊

congrats guru dan , from panay island, Philippines! land of the talibong and sanduko!

He’s the God Father of FMA.

The HEART of a spear..Dan Inosanto the Legend..

Still the only multiple martial arts master that doesn't claim to be a grand master but a guro (teacher). Much respect.

A true national treasure!

What a legend Bruce would be proud

Proud Filipino because of Guro Dan Isanto

You are great Sir Inosanto

This is a great man HE is HISTORY in so many ways. So glad to know him X-11B INFANTRYMAN

I enjoyed the bit about WW II service. My grandfather was in the Philippine Scouts during the Spanish American War and retired as a Master Sergeant. My father was a teenager when Japan invaded the Philippines and we have a lot of connections to people to served during that time period. I'm curious if Mr. Inosanto has had cataract removal surgery. His eyes look exactly like my dad's after his surgery.

Hey Cold Steel, I was wondering if you guys could use some demo videos of your products. I have a few years of experience in cinematography. I could even make you one for free. If you don't like them you don't have to use them of course. Let me know if you're interested.

Love Cold Steel, love Filipino martial arts.

Bows to the Guro!

Dan Inosanto the man wish I Can meet him my boy.

It's unfortunate that the sound is muffled. Good thing that there are subtitles. While that leather scabbard is nice, I believe it would also be a nice touch to have a wooden scabbard. Aside from the weapon itself, the wooden scabbard is just as unique and as much a part of the authenticity of it. You have to remember, the Philippines is a wet, humid place. The bolo is still used in some places and when you see the locals use it, you'll understand that it's not spared from the elements that the users themselves wouldn't put their bodies through. So yeah. That bolo and it's scabbard is going to get wet and dirtied. And the only thing that keeps it from rotting away is its constant use. The wooden scabbard also comes apart in halves so functionally, it can even be field stripped if its craftsman so wishes.

He had one of the most epic fights in cinema with Bruce Lee. Living legend!

Anyone know the amazing intro song?

Bruce Lee told him to study Philippino martial arts ,he said that his self in a very early interview. He was a student of Ed Parker at that time and stop practicing with Ed to learn from his early teacher and mentor Bruce Lee and Bruce told him to study his culture and their martial arts and that was way way back then.

Btw last hunting sword 🗡 just awesome

For his age, he looks handsome and fine. 👍🏽

We got 5 bolo in our house... We usually use it for chopping branch for firewood.... Haha but it can be use with something else...

I am Filipino.And I am very proud of him being one(1) of close friend of Legendary Martial Arts Bruce Lee..

Wow he knows a lot about Philippian martial arts.

Im proud to be a Filipino ....only Filipino is the legend

He has pretty good skin and fitness for his age!

Is this a full tang blade ?

He looks like Dan Henderson's grandfather.

Special weapon of my province aklan is super deadly..... the who carry this on the deep mountain people is being respected because of their fighting skills.... i remember when i was a child this weapon tell by elders that the weapon wil have a fever if never being use while you are in the mountain.... my grandfather even dont want u to touch his personal talibong because its sacred to them... and u cannot ask for a fight who where holding one of it... or make a jokes with them about this weapon. They will buy a life without hasitation.... thats how AKLAN the very old province on philippines has a deep respect using this weapon....

Did he ever appear in any action movie?

i have his book.

I'm so proud of my Filipino Heritage🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

He looks like my grandpa.
