@@user-wz4le9yx2n thank you I was so excited

@feynthefallen Год назад

I am very impressed. I had of course heard of the "war-fans" but I had dismissed them as an invention of story writers and manga artists. To learn what they actually look like and how they were used was very exciting. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

@trenwilson6613 Год назад

I would like to thank you and Seki Sensei for covering the Tessen, war fans or iron fans have always been an interesting item to me, they could keep you cool as well as protect you.

@anvos658 11 дней назад

This is really one of those things that is so weird to think it actually existed rather than being a creation of fantasy.

@NYKgjl10 Год назад

As an old saying goes: "Looks can be deceiving".....Fans doesn't look like a threat at all, but I can tell you this that it can be very useful, especially for atemi strike to the eye and so on and so forth. Excellent video series and hope to see Seki Sensei on-line course some day.

@kkamiya9038 Год назад

In the Sino fiction about Justice Bao, one of the 七俠五義 is known for his use of the iron fan. For his one, it's said the edge of the fan is capped with sharp pieces of metal, that can cut like a knife, when the fan is slashed at an opponent.

@rolandgdean Год назад

The distraction "atemi" with the tassel in Part 2 reminds me of the only "strike" my Aiki-Jitsu Sensei taught us. The only time he recommended hitting someone was as a distraction so that the greater technique would be more effective.

@raypolaris3381 Год назад

1:09 "As you can see from his collection, Seki Sensei is a big FAN of Tessen." I see what you did there, Shogo-san.

@Sukshula Месяц назад

every tip you gave was right on point! thanks a million!

@hennyboi1523 Год назад

your videos with lots of historical details on lesser known weapons are great! i hope this channel continues to grow.

@kohikan5180 Год назад

After learning Tessen at my dojo I applied those teaching in carrying a large comb.

@ren7a8ero Год назад

I was thinking a bit about that, the way samurai used to develop methods for turning every available resource as a weapon. In a way, such specialized thinking is akin to the Greek philosophers of old times, whose lives were also devoted only to taking an idea, concept or argument to its last consequences. My uttermost respect for those devoted to keep such traditions alive.

@stringchz Год назад

Can't wait for part 2! I found a metal fan I want to add to my weapons collection and these videos help me to understand how they were actually used. Thank you Seki Sensei and Shogo for sharing!

@stevenpopp4649 Год назад

I love these segments! Learning about ghe history and forgotten weaponry from the forgotten generations! So cool. Thank you sensei *low bows

@Soul1Heart Год назад

I am learning some very interesting stuff through your channel including about the existence of these.

@madeleineg2049 Год назад

Thank you for the video. I'm suprised that some Tessen don't open up. Kind of seemed counter-productive to me, but turns out, that had some use too. As for questions: Are there any actual techniques that makes it look to the enemy as if you were going to attack from one point, when you will actually go for another point? Or is it just an idea that came from Anime? (Like fighting scenes using "after-images" or something similar)

I studied Asayama Ichiden Ryu under a man who had studied under Kai Kuniyuki Sensei. It is an amazing style, but now in Toronto, Canada, I have no teacher anymore for Asayama.

@monicab204 Год назад

Wonderful videos. Love the history and viewing the different fans. Thank you!❤️

@kenzieblossom6974 Год назад

The Tessen are by far one of my favorite weapons. I see many katas preformed with different weapons. Are there any katas for the Tessen? I have only ever seen one hand fan performance at a tournament with metal fans with Chinese choligraphy. But I'm not sure what style they were from.

@yannickrichard3237 Год назад

In Avatar the last Airbender, Avatar Kyoshi used fans as weapons. Kyoshi island , the place she came from was the most influenced japanese place in this universe! I love that Tessenjutsu was represented in this animes!

@scottbeard5039 Год назад

Wow, can you talk more about how the tassel would get the attention of the deity. Probably it would be an entire separate video but could sensei talk about which deity they were followed for which ryu / tradition !Scott

@plaguedoctormorphious 8 месяцев назад

Now if only I could find a place to buy a Tessen.

@TheCCBoi Год назад

Wow, it must be amazing to train at a dojo with museum quality weapons.

@jestawell Год назад

It should be mentioned that their man ussage was as a signaling device for generals, who would very rarely enage in combat (but famously did)

@joanne188 Год назад

Thank you for this video!

@johncartwright8154 Год назад

Most interesting aspect of Japanese history, little known of here in England!

@jdhsingi Год назад

Thank you for this wonderful content. Where can one purchase a modern fan like those shown in the video ?

@rays-tfl Год назад

So this begs the question: would a samurai carry an additional bamboo/paper fan for cooling down in addition to the war fan? Because it seems the war fan would not be very good for cooling down, and I think that is still important. 😂

@max_garcia Год назад

I always wondered whether the ones that opened were used in combat. Apparently yes but got replaced with the solid wood or steel ones after a while is what I'm getting from this.

@paulbecket7399 Год назад

the "war fan" has always intrigued me...most of my martial training has been in Chinese martial arts (tai chi) and there are many fan forms out there.

I would like to see the one that is all metal but can open, if there is such an item.

@Didos54088 Год назад

Such iron fan are perfect to make as lethal weapon too. The steel piece could make it sharp, and conceal with high quality paper. When your life get threatened, use the steel stick to pierce your enemy. Just hold it like Wolverines Claw. Deadly yet artistic.

@dustyhefner2211 Год назад

Spreading the word to everyone I know that is of sound mind and spirit you definitely deserve 1,000,000 + subscribers what you and Seki Sensei are doing is insurmountable the fact that he is allowing so many to be a part of Asayama ichden ryu..I can't even find the proper words in my language to express my gratitude

@corycianangel6321 Год назад

I’ve always loved the idea of fans used as weapons, ever since I played Kitana in Mortal Kombat. I never knew that they are also used in real life, and I’m happy that it’s possible! It look really great as self-defense and it’s nice to learn about the techniques used in there.

@juanmiguelsebastian1477 Год назад

there is one iron fan in an anime titled Utawarerumono. this iron fan is completely made of steel and is also functions as a regular fan. does such iron fan exist and is it practical is combat?

@AZRUNE Год назад

Were the solid metal tessen designed to have the look but just be a sturdy extra tool in the arsenal of the samurai?

@ThomasToPC Год назад

I will visit Tokyo soon. Is there any shop there that sells folded fans made of metal or strong wood?

@Max_Flashheart Год назад

This is great I have always been interested in Tessen design and use.

@45calibermedic Год назад

I'm sorry that my comment isn't relevant to this video, but can Sensei comment on how his swords are retained in his belt? In previous videos, it seems like he can very easily slide them in and out of his belt and I wonder if they could fall or lose their proper position easily if someone had to run, climb, tumble, etc. while wearing them in this way. Were there other ways of setting the swords in the belt for greater security? Thanks so much!
