Are you interested in martial arts training? Are you also looking for Samurai Katana swords as your training reservoir? If this is so, then you ought to know a couple of things before you purchase all the cool Ninja weaponry. Wait, why did I say Ninjas? Because according to what I have researched the Ninjas were workers of the Samurais and everything was closely related and so were their weapons.
When it comes to martial arts, there are a number of martial arts which are practiced all around the world i.e. Judo, Kung Fu, Taekwondo, karate, etc. Another popular form of martial arts is the style of ninjutsu which is quite unique in contrast to other forms of martial arts. Generally, Ninjutsu is referred to as an ancient art of the Japanese "shadow warriors". This ancient art is said to have flourished extensively during the era which is known as "Feudal Japan" which dates from 1185 to the year 1603.
The literal meaning of the term "Ninjutsu" is to use one's ego, thoughts, and heart along with the edge of the Samurai Katana sword to make a mission successful by any means. This is the very reason that Ninjas were infamous (at that time) for their stealthy techniques and secret activities in the Japanese region. Miscellaneous weapons were used by Ninjas during their stealthy activities. Their weapons allowed them some kind of advantage over their opponents, particularly, during close combats. Below is a list of my favorite Ninja weapons which are still used today; however, their use is limited to training purposes or cosplay purpose.
1- Katana
This popular sword has been a favorite with the Samurais as well. Typically, Samurai Katana sword was a high-quality sword which was made of Damascus steel, also known as layered steel. A typical katana knife had a razor-sharp blade; whereas, the length of the sword was typically six feet. Also, the tip of the sword was slightly bent which served to administer cuts as well as absorbing blows.
2- Bo
This long wooden-staff is a well-known and still popular training weapon; the length of this wooden staff is 6 to 10 feet. This weapon was a crucial training tool for Ninjas which was also used in their missions. This wooden staff had also some hollow spots which were used to conceal useful items, such as poison.
3- Wakizashi
This is a shorter version of the Samurai Katana sword and is generally no longer than two and a half feet. It was typically used as a side-arm sword and as a companion to the Katana.
4- Hanbo
This wooden staff is the shorter version of the Bo; the length is only three feet which makes it a perfect training tool.
I hope this article proves helpful in making you choose the best ninja weapons for sale especially the Samurai Katana sword, which will also benefit you in the training sessions of your martial arts classes.
