Tanto Japanese
How do you hold a tanto in traditional japanese martial arts?
and do you ever use two at a time?
the Tanto was more of a back up dagger or knife and was usually used as such. It RARELY was used for battle but I am sure at times it was.
The Katana and Wakasashi were the two main swords used and the bow the other.
I am unaware of any that used dual weapons but i am sure they must have had some!

However, everything is more clear and vivid after the implementation of the microphone in 1926, and this material occupies four of these five CDs. Still, some artists sound a bit inhibited, and it’s fr… |
