Chiburi is a cut 

Tom Sensei i agree with you. Chiburri was definetly not oractical enough for the purpose of removing blood from the blade, thats why the bushi had tenugi. Chiburi when done as a cut properly requires Tenouchi omce the blade is in feont of you. Otherwise its a bad cut or a bad chuburri.

Fantastic , this explains a lot , in previous kendo and kenjutsu practices I would stand for O Chiburi and then make the cut, but I prefer the way you describe it here ❤️

If could increase the volume or closed captioned.

Chiburi, to Rede of the impurities. This is the true meaning.

Thanks for sharing! Im personally from the MSR but its nice to see from an Eishinryu perspective for chiburi.

Thank you 🙏 Any pointers on Chiburri from the standing position?
