Inexpensive DIY Katzbalger Guard for Rattan
Did anybody else take a look at foxknife.com's new $20 Musashi tsuba and see a katzbalger guard hidden inside?


I never stay in one place for three of my opponent's blows. I also never let my opponent throw three unanswered blows. Standing in front of your opponent lets him perfect his pell technique. Most fighters are very good against a pell. - Duke Gyrth

No I agree... but it's a lot of file/grinder work to make the last step of looking like a katzbalger. I just didn't have anything productive to add.
