    learned to lead with the sageo tonight.. tieing a peirced heart knot catching the foot... then redirecting right as the person is about to get up which fatigues them.. samurai tactic. Learned a technique to "pop" the sword away from the enemy by locking the sageo around the tsuba. Also learned a technique to "pop" a cane with the sageo. Learned a technique to use the obi as a weapon.. by quickly tieing a bone shaped object at the end of the obi. I would assume you could do something similar with the sageo.

    i suppose the sageo, like many other fittings to Japanese bladed weapons, could serve a practical purpose while at the same time serve an esthetic purpose. i mean, if samurai weren't concerned with esthetics, why would they bother getting specially-shaped tsuba or beautifully lacquered saya?
    Well I guess the technique of catching the foot from a chest kick with a sageo can be supplemented by the fancy decorations around the chest area - it makes it harder to visually pick out the sageo.

    I have never heard of this art before Xenso, could you fill us in about it please? It's history, etc.

    Aizu as in the area of Fukushima Prefecture; also as in Daito Ryu's "lost teachings" or whatever. Supposidly this is not oshikiuchi.

    Let's keep this thread from eroding, shall we!

    I'm not sure if it was the right place to do it, but I asked that question here

    Baffling Budo

    sorry if it was presumptuous about the art...it just seemed the place where all those sorts of questions are asked.

    cheers,
