The swords that are said to have been used by the ninja are so different from the katana that was used by the samurai. The differences became clear when we held and compared the actual swords. Please take a good look at the ninja swords available to you and see what kind of products they are.

●What is a 脇差 Wakizashi?
A short sword about 50 cm that is inserted at the waist along with a long sword. The shorter katana of the Daishō: one long and one short katana set. During the Edo period (1603~1868) it was a rule for samurai to always have a long katana and short wakizashi on their waist when they walked outside.

●What are the 7 techniques of the Sageo string for the ninja swords?
1.旅枕 Tabimakura
Tabimakura is a method of using a sageo string to tie two katana, one large and one small, together at bedtime, and then pass the sageo under the body to sleep with the katana on both sides of you.
If either of the katana is about to be taken from you while you are asleep, you will instantly be aware of it by the movement of the sageo under your body. When your enemy tries to escape from the room, you can avoid losing your katana by grabbing the sageo and reeling it in.
2.座さぐりの法 Zasaguri-no-hō
(Explained in the video)
3.槍停 Yaritei
Yari-tei is used when fighting an enemy who uses a spear. It is a ninjutsu in which the ninja sword and scabbard are tied together with the sageo string.
And with the katana in the right hand and the scabbard in the left, you quickly avoid the opponent's thrust, entangle the spear with the sageo, and take it away at once.
4.塀登り Hei-nobori: Climbing walls
(Explained in the video)
5.野中の幕 Nochu-no-maku
Nonaka no maku is a ninjutsu in which the sageo string is used to create a simple roof when camping out in the field.
The sageo was threaded between several trees to form a framework over the head, and a tenugui (towel) or haori (kimono coat) was placed over it to create a roof.
6.指縄 Sashi-nawa
Using the sageo string as a rope to capture enemies or treat an injury
7.Substitute for Obi belt
