Kama and Kusarigama in Koryu

[tgall]

Hello,

I' m really intersted in the background of Kama and Kusarigama in Koryu, exspecially in a comparison of the Koryu Kama-Jutsus with the Ryukyu-Ryuha's.

I' m not looking for a training guides, I m intrested art of usages and in the differences.

I found that Kama is used in the Asayama Ichiden Ryu, but nothing about the usage of the weapon in this ryu.

For Kusarigama if found some more Ryuha's:

Araki-Ryu
Isshin-Ryu
Maniwa-Nen-Ryu
Toda-Ryu
Tendo-Ryu
and in the german budoforum.net was also said Takenouchi-Ryu

I tryed to find more infomation about the Systems, but I don't find so much, so could you help me or tell me were I could get more infomations about it, or could u describe the differences in the usage of the kusarigama in the systems?

Thanks for your help
