As a historical sabre fencer I appreciate that you acknowledge the risk of fighting an edged weapon realistically. Have you seen the Hungarian fokos (walking stick tomahawk)? That hits the spot for outdoor survival/defense.

Nice to see some new ideas! The fighting stick with a length of 4-5 ft is a pet project of mine. As the classig hiking/pilgrim stick, there are combat systems for that length in almost all cultures on the planet. I know methods from Germany, Italy, France, UK, Portugal, China, Japan, Philippines, India, Canary Islands ...
Question on the Tento Men Uchi technique you suggest. Have you ever pressure tested this in open sparring? In my experience, when you use the first strike as a feint and the opponent actually makes contact with your stick and therefore derails it, it's very hard to follow up with the second strike in correct distance and angle. What is your experience?

Teacher, with all due respect ...


While I appreciate your teaching skills. Teaching your students to FEEL the pressure of an opponent who pushes the weapon out of the middle...

Now look at 0:36 in this video...
You must surely understand, that againt a skilled opponent, he (or she) will keep the threat in the middle (by which I mean, directly toward your middle line).
This may come to you as a shock. Opponents will keep their centre, and NOT push your weapon/arm/body pressure out of the way. And hence hit you. yes you. HIT you.

Sorry for being so critisizing. You seem like a good player of the martial arts. Let's meet some day on the tatami (training mat).
