How does that feel Honey !!??
I'm not sure what's going on between these 2 but she definitely want to teach this guy a lesson... for some unknown reason :) Hope he was wearing a shell....
No Touch Energy….
I do believe in the existence of energy/chi/kai or whatever you want to give that baby a name. And i witnessed some pretty impressive things first hand but i don't believe (at all..) that you can control and use it in a way as this Kai Master try to play it :) He was very lucky that his opponent took it easy on him...
Ow shit… Jimmy….
I do believe that a lot of these small and or bigger accidents are actually happening in the MA world . A student feels (in most cases) happy & honored that he/she can perform an exercises with the teacher. Even if they know they're going to be beaten up :) So they hold on -like Jimmy here in this clip- to not go down/lose face in front of others... even if it really hurts or goes wrong..
Backflip Fail
It's an 'oldy' but i still need to pee in my pants when watching it :) The man does deserve a big credit because aven after his (probably painful) crash he still want to move on with his nunchuck act... he definitely got the spirit !

Ukiyo-e Heroes : gaming characters & woodblock printing united
Ukiyo-e Heroes and woodblockprints, not something i was very familiar with untill a few days ago. Thanks to the famous work of Utagawa Kuniyoshi, who drawed a lot of warrior portraits & battle scenes, i knew a bit about Ukiyo-e but didn't really got the idea/concept behind that. And woodblockprints.. well the word speaks for itself but i had no clue about the process behind it. Once you start to digg into that it's quit amazing what kind of artwork could be made back in those days. But
Why running a Japanese sword shop isn’t always as cool as you might think…
When i tell people what my job is most of them do think it's awesome..especially sword fanatics :) But as with all things in life, nothing goes exactly the way you planned it. And since i couldn't find any satisfaction by just (re)selling the big brands and always like to 'dot it my way', working directly with Chinese forges was the only way left.
