He then had a revelation which completed his technical skills, and it is from this combination that he invented Saburi Ryū. The school developed for generations inside the Mihara Clan up to its peak under the eigth representant, Saburi Gengozaemon Shigetake, at the moment of the Meiji restoration. Nowadays, professor Kawase Kazumichi is the twelfth representant of the school and received its tradition. In Saburi Ryū, the sentence “the spear cut and the sword thrusts” expresses the essence of the style. The standard spear of this school is 9 Shaku (approx. 273 cm) long, with a tip of 2,1 Shaku (approx. 64 cm) made of a double edge with two Shinogi (ridges). 2,5 Shaku (76 cm) under the tip is a metallic handle that can slide along the shaft. The spear takes its name from that handle and is called “Kagiyari” (“Kagi” being the metallic handle). -- CREDITS -- Footage by Seido Co., Ltd. https://www.seidoshop.com (en) https://www.seidoshop.jp (jp) https://www.seidoshop.com/blogs/the-s...
