    I enjoyed this quite a bit and it is great to see people pushing their skills like this. Messer and Buckler tends to stay in long point a lot, though, which makes his opening attacks more predictable than they need to be. If Katana and Wakizashi were to work on defending against thrusts, this match would be very different next time. Both tend to go only for the deep targets, though, leaving themselves vulnerable to hand strikes which would be disabling in a swordfight. Maybe it was because you guys did not have heavy hand protection and actively avoided hand targets? It's hard to tell. Overall, both of you are very proficient fighters and I would love to have a bout with both of you. This was delightful to watch

    I really like that you keep going after landing a hit. It demonstrates the real risk of receiving a counter blow pretty well, even if you manage to connect first with a proper attack. And in combat with adrenalin pumping that's very likely to happen I can guess

    Definitely a cool thing to watch. Course. Can you adequately test 'power?' I remember reading about Tesshu and he was 6'+ and he was aggressive and strong. Most martial arts and weapons forms cannot adequately rate against someone with tremendous strength/power. I remember going to a few Cheng Hsin classes in Berkeley, and the teacher would always say, test power on heavy bag. I can tell you from experience, first time I ever sparred, I one shotted a kung fu champion from China, who was in the movie 'Shaolin Temple.' If you know anything about those movie guys, from China. They won't have any of that stuff, IF they can help it. Power is more than an equalizer, but very hard to fit into a martial arts school/system. Teachers maintain trust and devotion from their students, because every student must be lower than them.
