The Quality of the Fine Samurai Armour is simply Superb; so authentic!

Very clear , easy understanding and useful demonstration , thanks for update .

Thanks a lot for uploading!

Wow ! This video was awesome ! I love the gesturing, I don,t think they ever missed a bow lol ! You can see a lot of practice went into this. Very poised, disciplined and most of all with grace ! Very nice...

Excellent. Thanks for this!

Ok, thanks. I can't wait to see it. :D

This is awesome...

Because there is such a big difference between them all and you can definitely tell by sight.

excellent video , btw is this the Edo lineage or the Sendai lineage ? lol i always get confused between them

Hi! A great demonstration... However, are you going to publish the ninth video? From what I've managed to find on the channel, one of the links on the demonstration playlist is private. ;)

I have to agree with you there.

When the guy sat on the chair at the start, I thought that they were going to put an Apple, or something, on his head and just start cutting. To be able to have, or even wear armour like that, am I right in thinking that they are decedents of Samurai and that the armour is a family heirloom? At what point do you start getting pissed off by being beat round the head by a guy with a fan, when you have a Katana?

Is the red stick weapon supposed to be a tessen ?

Apologies for the late reply, I couldn't find my inbox messages since this layout change.

Cyberstilemaster No. I think Red one is fukuro-jinai(shinai). It is covered with lether.

Realistically its comes down to the martial skill of both combatants, and the Yumi is only effective at medium to long range. Also those were Tachi not Katana.

If it's worn edge up through the obi or edge down via ashi.

Two guys had uchigatana.

The main difference between katana and tachi, is where the Mei of the smith is inscribed on the nakago. Omote - Tachi. Ura - Katana

Well there is also the Tachi tends to have more of a curve.

The tachi is also significantly longer. I mean by a huge margin.

Indeed. But do you truly know the difference between the two?

Ahh no problem. All of the changes they implement mess with people.

Pretty much. But the way its worn is determined by the Mei. I was asking him if he knew because he felt he needed to be pedantic enough about to to correct some fool that still thinks a katana has mystical properties.

Why is he wearing ashigaru armor?

+victormothamo Its not ashigaru armor, its a type of armor that ashigaru wore but not nearly as a heavy duty as main line samurai. Its refered to as tatami-dou (folding armor) due to its flexablity though depending on the design it doesnt cover the legs nearly as well as a gusoku suit Said armor is not nearly as heavy as the O-yoroi suit the guy he is facing is wearing (about 25 lbs difference). The heaviest armors weight in at 42.2 lbs (bullet proof samurai armor made for stopping tanegashima balls)

In some online shops, you can buy armour like that for around $1000, of the period. I've been tempted to buy a set.

Two blades just existed during post civil war era. Also, notice how their blade is pointed downwards when sheated, instead of upwards like the Tokugawa period.

You ever wonder why the guy with the tanto always wins in these demonstrations? It’s because they know most of the time the katana guy would win in that situation but are demonstrating techniques so that the tanto user can shrink his disadvantage. The same goes for all the other weapons you see ‘win’ against katana: Wakizashi, jitte, that guy with the jingasa, staff weapons, unarmed opponents

Seriously?..... LOL

the samurai with the katana is telegraphine the play his swinging to slow that's why the other fighter knows we're the katana is going to end up not even close don't disgraced the samurai worrier like this samurai we're fast at the draw.
