春が待ち遠しい住田です。

みなさまはいかがお過ごしでしょうか。

本日はタイトルにあるとおり、

試し斬りにおいては、今までもお伝えしてきた通り、
刃筋はもちろんのこと「斬りたい所を斬る」ということがとても重要です。
たとえ、藁を斬ることが上手くても、斬りたい所を斬れなければ技斬りはできないのです。

また、斬りたいところを斬れないと、
稀に心棒や斬り台を斬ってしまうこともあり、大切な刀の刃こぼれの原因になります。
稽古では、「上手く斬れた」ということと共に
「自分が思っていたところ」が斬れたかどうか、毎回確認してみましょう！

不思議なものでこの確認作業を続けることで、
斬りたい所を斬れるテクニックが一気にアップします。
ぜひおためしください！

Thank you very much for enjoying your experience with our Association.

I am Sumida and can’t wait for spring.
I hope the weather will warm up soon.
How are you all doing?

As the title of today’s article says,
I would like to share with you some important points for “cutting the exact spot you want to cut in the test cutting.

First of all, please watch the video!

In test cutting, as we have already told you,
In test cutting, as I have told you before, it is very important to “cut where you want to cut” as well as the blade line.
Even if you are good at cutting straw, if you cannot cut where you want to cut, you will not be able to perform the technique.

Also, you must be able to cut where you want to cut,
If you cannot cut what you want to cut, you may cut the Shinbou or the slice stand, which may cause the blade of your sword to spill.
In practice, you should not only cut well, but also cut where you thought you would cut.
In practice, you should check every time whether or not you were able to cut “where you thought you were cutting” as well as whether or not you were able to cut “where you thought you were cutting”!

It is a mysterious thing that by continuing this checking process, you will be able to cut where you want to cut,
You will improve your technique to cut where you want to cut at once.
Please give it a try!
