Tengu Sword, the Real Story
Hi, I studied ninjitsu.. that is a tengu sword.. My master only had one pic.. but I'm glad to see another.. it's 2/3 handle, 1/3 blade.. the village of Fukushima was under attack, so someone went into the mountains, and sought help from a Tengu.. he gifted this sword, and taught him how to use it.. for me.. in my lessons.. it should seem like a staff.. and the only thing you see.. is a flash.. before death.. this was because of the quick uncovering of the sword, or unsheathing.. while most samurais at the time, took a bit longer to withdraw there long bladed sword, Tengus gave us the gift of speed.. coupled with extreme intent and accuracy.. you can see why we can overcome samurais in an instant.. <3
