Shakuhachi is a bamboo flute in Japan that has a history of over 1,300 years in Japan. It’s a very simple instrument with just 5 holes in bamboo, but what is bumpy stuff on the end? This is actually the root of the bamboo, but why did they always use this part?
One theory says that it might have been because people used the Shakuhachi as a weapon. During the Edo period, there was a Buddhism sect that used the Shakuhachi for their training. They would wear a basket over their face to hide their ego, and travel everywhere as they collected donations from the people. But because they would sometimes go through dangerous places they had a chance of being attacked by bandits. In such a situation, they would use the bumpy end of the Shakuhachi to fight.
Yeah, I guess it would hurt a lot if you were hit by this.

The management (filming, editing, etc.) of the new Asayama Ichiden Ryu's English Channel "Let's ask Seki Sensei" is completely my voluntary work. If I am not able to pay for the expensive bullet train fare from Kyoto to Ibaraki Prefecture (where the main Dojo is located), and hotel/filming expenses, this activity will cease. Please help us spread and preserve this 400-year-old martial art. In return, I will try my best to create the most educational and exciting content about Japanese Kobudo.
