Togakure Ryu Ninja Biken

This is a Historical system based off of Ninpo Sword skills. The main difference between regular Kenjutsu and Ninja Biken is the size of the blade which was cut to size but normally in the range of 20 to 24 inches in length. A normal sword is in the 30 plus inches range. This makes the blade not only shorter but lighter and faster to draw due to the size and weight. With this type of blade you have to be able to close the distance and get inside of the hands of your opponent. This video shows the first 9 patterns of the school.
