In our
Bokken-Shop we offer you this simple and elegant
John Lee Musashi Ichi Wakizashi. Miyamoto Musashi went down in Japanese history as one of the
most notable samurai and lived from 1584 to 1645. He was famous as the
best swordsman in Japan. He was a fighter, artist and craftsman at the same time.
Miyamoto Musashi developed his own fighting style, which is still taught today as "Niten Ichiryu". Short and long swords are used at the same time. His founding of a school for the production of guard plates (tsuba) has not been forgotten. His most famous, very simple
tsuba consists of
two oval rings.
