Today’s video covers a very unlikely scenario in the modern world -- defending against a spear with a Katana.  I mean, I know when I walk down the street I practically trip over all the swords and spears people are carrying, right?

The Japanese take their swords very seriously.  Dont believe me?  Then explain Iaido, the art of sword drawing.  Yes, I am serious -- they have an entire style dedicated to the drawing and re-sheathing of swords.  Today’s video demonstrates an Iaido Kata.

Jumps and flips with a Katana seems like a really REALLY bad idea.  On the other hand, it is also seriously bad ASS.
