I’ll try to learn this in my next life when I come back as a samurai…
Its actually not that hard if u were to pick it up today. Just get a large stick for beginning lol. The only sheath you'd need is ur fingers to create a opening like a sheath and then practicing the movement over and over again. Then once u get a chance to get a wooden katana (preferably a katana cuz of course it wouldn't work on European double edged blades lol) train for 2 hrs doing the same BASIC movement over and over like shown in the first part of the video. Once u know how to spin a blade, then only can u try to sheath by spinning.
Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
Notification : Truck kun is waiting for you in the next alley!
You dont come back boy...one way it is..to heaven or hell..stop being lazy
The Shogunate has been abolished years ago
I literally taught myself this move more than a decade ago after watching Vergil in DMC3. I'm glad the technique I ended up at is in fact the proper technique!
My boneheaded self used an actual (non-sharpened) metal blade though, so I had to strengthen my fingers, wrist, and forearm before I could reliably spin the sword. I dropped it and/or hit myself with it so many times, but I eventually got it!
I taught myself this after watching Zatoichi: Blind Samurai. It actually makes sheathing the sword a little easier than the standard way imo
Vergil is the reason why I like katanas
U think that's dumb! I taught myself the Amak kyu Ryu no hiri meki 10 years ago after seeing it on Rorouni Kenshin! With a blunt metal blade
that's what I'm curious about. what if about the real sword, with weight more than a toy sword. and isn't dangerous to have a weak grip like that?! if someone hit you while performing that as I believe a part of advance application for this is for defend and a quick slash, does it still has the strength grip to held the sword for that momentum? for example, if enemy hit you while doing it, and you defend with that kind of grip, isn't it dangerous to held the heavy sword like that?!
it will only reasonable if some one have a super strength grip with their finger, far stronger than enemy. Or else, it will only turn into playing trick that will cost your own life.
This is just a modern methodology to try and impress the ignorant or uninformed.
I was completely ready to believe you were that nimble with a steel blade lol
I love how you break down the context and purpose of these techniques!
Alloy.
I've attempted doing the spin sheathing exercise before, but, after a while I stopped. This video has encouraged me try it again.
Its good exercise anyways lol. Muscle memory training mostly.
go for it and upload
Im not a practitioner but I am able to do it lol. Ive always been good with spinning stuff with my hands and even will do it with knifes when im doing dishes and have been doing it for years. My friend was surprised that I copied him after watching him do a spin sheath
@@lemongrab9044 you're gifted... 👍🏼
@@gustavoadolfovasquezperdom1208 I wouldn't say that lol, but like I said I was already doing a similar motion with knives so it just took putting more strength into it lol
I'm 100% positive at least 70 twits injured themselves using a live blade instead of a dummy blade trying this.
And probably lost their left thumb in addition to other limbs..
Still doable with a proper weighted katana, I have tried my self, a bit hard on the fingers but not impossible.
I did injure myself doing this but when I 1st learned this move from a video tutorial the person just said katana, they didn't specified it was for a light weight sword. I did eventually become very profiecient doing it with a regular metal katana.
Lmfao I’ve always trained with a real katana
I taught myself this move on a sharpened metal katana. Same one I used while teaching myself iaido and chopping fruit
Tried this once at my dojo putzing around before the class started at a muso shinden ryu school and my sensei gave me the death glare of disapproval. Feels bad man.
Oh he got jealous or you cut the curtains accidentally😨???
@@yiotatornadortheodoropoulo8706 probably one of the cases of disrespecting traditions as some teachers were just strict
Although i don't train iaido myself (would love to), I've heard that in some places fooling around and trying flashy stuff is seen as a disrespect to the katana you're using, so maybe that'd the case
Remember to count all your fingers and thumb after.
@@kiracomfortinghishomie8351 It is also used as a means to sever the spiritual/energetic chord to your opponent after you finished them. A flashy Shiburi signals that you disrespect your opponent for being disrespectful to you and is something like a violent cutting of the energetic chord. A simple and calm Shiburi signals that your opponent fought and died in an honourful manner. That's what my teacher taught me during Iaido training.
Now, with this technique, I am finally filled with POWER and MOTIVATION!
A Shiburi is also used as a means to sever the spiritual/energetic chord to your opponent after you finished them. A flashy Shiburi signals that you disrespect your opponent for being disrespectful to you and is something like a violent cutting of the energetic chord. A simple and calm Shiburi signals that your opponent fought and died in an honourful manner. That's what my teacher taught me during Iaido training. The move in this tutorial looks effin cool, though, and we learned this in training, too!
do you mean chiburi? :O but ye
Yes, Chiburi, the spelling seems to differ between languages@@Aleebi
@@phosphorusmusick Understood, just wanted to make sure haha.
Boy, you just can't get get cooler than Ace. Super friendly and non-assuming type of soul, and yet, when he suits up, he's all business ! ! Great site Ace ! !
WHO COME HERE BECAUSE OF VERGIL????
Learned the basic within 5 minutes im so proud of myself
Hope you didn't cut off any important parts in the process 🍆
I lost most of my limbs attempting this but I think I'm getting the hang of it
shit happens
Very impressive! And I really appreciate the backstory at the end. I can turn my katana but I think I use the whole hand when doing it. (Strange how difficult it is to analyze something that is done with pure muscle-memory) :)
Essentially, this is my experience as well.
Great breakdown. I do this with a blade sharpener to practice. My adhd made me start with spinning pencils and pens in class as a young adult to get the muscle memory. From there the weight just changes and the danger. I have a lot of respect for this man. When done in a fluid motion it's like watching a tsunami crash.
Huh, so I've been doing this right the entire time?! I have a custom aluminum dull katana with a plastic scabbard that I made to practice with. No one taught me how to spin sheath, so for the longest time, I just instinctively spun it like the way Aoshima demonstrated. I just never thought that it was the actual way to do it. Either way, cool tutorial and definitely a fun trick to learn and do.
Well, as you probably know, there's an old saying that goes: "History repeats itself". It's entirely possible that you re-invented the technique for yourself. If you think about martial-arts techniques, you're bound to get that feeling, like "Someone was smart enough to come up with this." They weren't just smart, but had good instincts and practice.
Thank God for explaining in detail for the technique and material of the sword toward the end of the video. I was getting discouraged because I can't afford to loose anymore fingers until I knew I could have practiced with a bamboo sword!
Thank you for this tutorial. The spin looks so awesome and elegant. The wooden sword fooled me totally :)
my husband,father-in-law and my father love old school Chambara films!
Wakayama Tomisaburo and Shintaro Katsu play in our house on sundays when me and my friends go out. I am glad my husband can enjoy himself on his days off.
I started to watch these videos because my husband loves to watch your channel.
Damn, you taught so well that I learned it REALLY fast, man! Thanks!
Notice: I don't even own a Katana. I do this in my backyard on the rulers, broken hockey stick with its puck hitting surface, and baseball bat I have at home, and am planning to get a Chinese Jian sword as opposed to a Japanese Katana sword, and yet it still works with rulers, broken hockey sticks without their puck hitting surfaces, and baseball bats.
Slow is smooth and smooth is fast. This is well demonstrated here.
667th comments here. I played with knives too much since kindergarden and I am way to used to nunchaku tricks. This is so easy. So easy I could do it right away with both hands.
I've done this with my T10 katana it takes a lot of strength to do this right along with keeping the momentum going, but since my hands are medium small size I had to modify the finger movement slightly sometimes even a millimeter or lower toss in the air to perfect this move. But it can be done with a regular katana
Aoshima, thank you! Your movements awesome. Tried it out and it works great. I going to practicing and show it to my friends)
I've been practicing this for a couple months with steel blade. I appreciate your thorough breakdown of hand positions.
My dude! This was an AWESOME video! Thank you for sharing this with us! I love the samurai and anything I can learn about them and their ways, I'm all ears. You sir, have another subscriber!
I've know this technique, but you have helped me to refine it. Thank you!
Lone wolf and cub. Itto Ogami puts his sword away using the spin. I had a hard time learning how to do this until I came across your video. Great demonstration! Ush!
Your voice change from intro to actual dojo area is striking.
I like how he uses his Batman voice when handle his sword.
I think that's his normal voice
Thank you. Wonderfully executed, wonderfully explained
Love your videos and clear explanations/ breakdown of the steps, Thanks !! please keep them coming.
That is such a beautiful and elegant movement!!👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
People should post more interesting videos like this on CZcams!!
I checked out other tutorials. none of them worked, although after watching your tutorial, i easily advanced from the beginner-sheathing to spin-sheating in 15 minutes. thank you.
Great tutorial but chiburi actually isn't to remove blood from your blade if you preform chiburi with blood on your blade a lot of it will remain. The actual use of chiburi it's to check the Mekugi is broken or not (for those that don't know the Mekugi is the bamboo pin that keeps your blade attached to your handle)
first of all, i don't think you need to explain what a japanese word means to a literal japanese guy. Second, 'chiburi' or 'chiburui' actually quite literally translates to 'shaking off blood'. So while you are correct with the statement that this doesn't completely remove blood from your blade and you still need to wipe it, you are still just being a smartass for the sake of being a smartass. Which is to say, you're being annoying.
@@SomeoneNr9 someone took it personally
It is also used as a means to sever the spiritual/energetic chord to your opponent after you finished them. A flashy Shiburi signals that you disrespect your opponent for being disrespectful to you and is something like a violent cutting of the energetic chord. A simple and calm Shiburi signals that your opponent fought in an honourful manner. That's what my teacher taught me during Iaido training.
Such a refreshing channel brings back a lot of memories.
Subbed
THis was very easy to learn thanks for thetutorial
Thanks for the tutorial! Everything is so much easier once you break it down.
Thank You for explaining this. Especially the use of a wooden blade for practice and show.
really cool. wish there was more movies and anime - samurai were awesome warriors.. honorable
This brings me back to when I used to do Cosplay. I was prepping to do Mitsurugi and was practicing his routine from Soul Calibur 3. He often did the spin and thankfully I had some practice doing some spinning tricks with poles and sticks, but the trick for me was to make pressure on the index and middlefinger to compensate the weight of the blade so I wouldn't lose grip. It's easier with poles or sticks since you can have them even out their balance and your wrist is making minimal effort to control the spin, but not only it's tricky with a sword since all the weight is on one end, it's trickier with a katana due to the curved blade.
second video so far, instantly subscribed. Good work!
Nìce video man. Thanks for the explanation in the end. You are a good man n martial artist for being truthful. Keep it up.
You are the best teacher ever
Good morning ! Well done . Thanks for sharing .
Thank you so much for this very well explained video, sometimes it happens so fast that is difficult to understand but this breaking down of the technique is beautiful.
...so that's how Takeru Sato do his spin sheathing after the fight in Kyoto (Ruroni Kenshin 2 Kyoto Inferno), amazing sword skills 👏👏👏
That was really awesome. Thanks a lot for sharing this.
I really liked the video, and it is very nice of you to share with us relevent informations concerning the Takemitsu and the move you showed us how to do, this was an interesting watch, thanks for the tutorial .
I like your teaching and techniques. This is so cool.
Never too late! 🤩🙏
Ace, your video inspired me to buy a training katana to try to learn this. Thank you, and I hope you create more videos soon!
cool stuff and surprisingly easier than it looks. tried it with a bokuto a few times and wasn't too difficult to get the hang of it. now just takes practice to perfect it. very enlightening video
It's incredible how easy it is when you see the explanation for a second time.
THANKS to you I be able to do it! I did it with 1.04kg carbon steel katana!!
You're an excellent teacher!
This is so cool. Thanks for explaining that move!
Thank you for this tutorial, was super helpful and looks pretty neat, I will practice this one even more!
Thanks! Though I will say that I didn't watch your video to the end where you confess to using a fake katana. I followed your steps and practiced until I could spin sheath without thinking about it using my real katana. I tore up the skin between my fingers in the process!
But, I appreciate the instructions. There are a lot of spinning videos out there but your method is exactly what I was looking for. It's the same that Ogami Itto uses in the Lone Wolf and Cub movies. Thanks to you now I can do it too!
This has been really fascinating and informative since I recently bought some wooden katanas and wanted to know some different tips and tricks for using them. I hope to be able to use information like this to perform theatrically for friends and family, to entertain. Plus, then I would actually be able to show off a little if I end up cosplaying rather than just having my swords hang by my side for show lol
Thank you for teaching this, it’s been fun to practice!
Thank you! Very good technique breakdown and that explanation at the end, makes it even better! Fan now, suscribed too. Don´t know how come I didn´t find your channel before.
You are an excellent teacher bhante 🙏 thnxs
Amazing, really. Thank you so much.
Fantastic demonstration!!!
Very cool, I've always wondered if there was any other reason for this flashy sheathing thanks for sharing and educating!
Let me also express my deep appreciation. For the way you've explained all of this. As one commentor said, i was read to believe this was an authentic Katakana. Not a wooden one.
Thank you🙏🏾
thanks bro...this is spin is very fire🔥🔥
A 30 anos curto o arte Samurai.....pena no Brasil ter muito poucos academias.....parabéns pela sua iniciativa.
Thank you very much for posting this. I've always wondered how it was done. I use tachi swords and I'll practice this with them. Of course, I'll start with my iaito because I don't want any accidents.
All the best to you and your endeavors!
So awesome!!! Can't wait for the next one! :D
Its 3 am and I dont even own a sword nor am I planning to own one and yet I still watched the entire Video and enjoyed it
Thanks for the lesson, much appreciated 👍
Very educational Sensei Osu!
It was so easy after watching this video..Thx alot
Estimado amigo le envío saludos desde Lima Perú!! Me suscribo y tú canal y te agradezco el tiempos y la excelente explicación. Admiro a Japón y sobre todo la filosofía, la disciplina y el magistral manejo de la espada que implica seguir el camino del Samurai. Mis respetos y saludos!!
I appreciate the form, the art and the effort behind that culture of japanese spwrdfighting. This is me speaking as a martial artist of 15 years.
But the german in my reaches to his longsword internaly.
Very Helpful, Thank you!
beautiful this rotation sheath movement
Wow watching you draw and sheath is really something
Wonderful, sensei.
great video really informative and easy to follow through
Very nice brother, thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you very much for this!
All your vids are amazing
I've been trying this for a while with my metal katana, and my thumb knuckle's pretty scraped... Should've seen the video till' the end for your explanation about the takemitsu. Pretty good video, loved it.
informative 👍👍🤩
Thank you Sir 🙏🙏
Excellent! Gotta practice this. Thank you.
Just buy a freakin gun
Adding an obi-ani spin beforehand looks and feels super cool.
I’ve been training with a sharp katana for two days now and your Chanel has helped a lot. I have a wooden katana but I never thought of training with it because I didn’t want to break it and now you’ve said that at the end of the Vidio I’ve desided to Cary on using the metal one.😂
will never do that but after watching all zatoichi, the samurai trilogy and Ogami Itto movies it was really cool to see it explained thanks for sharing
oops forgot lady snowblood she deserves to be mentioned too and now I want to listen to Meiko Kaji - Shura no hana
Very nice video, good job, very cool!
I came to learn how to sheath like Vergil. I leave satisfied.
Edit: Now after 8 months, this has become a part of my muscle memory. A motivated way to sheathe a sword
There is one thing about most movies with swords that I find amusing. That is the "shing" kind of sound that always accompanies the drawing of a sword in movies. It's even put with the smaller Tanto. I have yet to be able to make that sound upon unsheathing any of my swords. That's just like the "whop" sound they add to punches & kicks. I've never heard that from any practitioner of any martial arts. If you listen very hard, you can sometimes hear a quiet swish from someone's Gi when they perform a Kata!
Blades with a Bo-hi do tend to make an audible whiffing sound through the air when making a correctly aligned and fast cut.
@@stinkyfungus That's not the same as the sound effect they use. I have a 1/2" by 4' bamboo teacher's stick. It comes closest to that sound. However, in most all martial arts movies, it's way over used. I mean, I don't believe that any simple hand or arm/leg movement could ever make the sound, but they do in those movies. hahahaha
fifty years ago, i studied kendo. on occasion, our teacher would recommend a toshiro mifune movie. there is a famous duel at the culmination of sanjuro, which involves a strange draw and cut that i could NEVER quite understand. is that something you could demonstrate? thanks.
Up!
I'll explain it textxually. He grabs the sword in a backwards grip with the left hand. First he pulls _back_ which pushes the scabbard deeper into the belt and serves the function of "sayabiki" you'd do with the left hand in a normal draw. Then he pulls the sword out and cuts.
Mifune draws left handed and braces/ pushes the blade with his right forearm against the back of the blade, making the strike.
@@bryanlunt7579 it has to be something like that. but drawing a sword, edge up, getting the point past your armpit, then cutting from a backward grip... seems incredibly awkward. i AM dyslexic, so i am probably missing some crucial aspect of the draw. it might be easier if the blade were carried edge down in the sheath.
@@sleethmitchell Here it is, it can be played at lower speed. I think the other person's description was more accurate than mine.

thanks for teaching those steps,now im fighting for my life.
Now I’m feeling motivated!
Love your videos!
Nicely done.
This is a forgotten art, nowadays the gun is mightier than the sword, the minute you are trying to work the spinning of an index finger pew pew “you shot me” Im obviously jealous, I enjoyed the video and will be practicing when my kids are out of sight.
3:30 I love how he said “shake off the blood”
Thank you for more reference for my Samurai DND character -
Thanks for this video, Aoshima-sensei.
