Begin stepping forward with the right foot. Do not use a pulling motion with the right hand.Ħ. Unlock the blade from the sheath, and draw the blade by pushing the right hand forward and pulling the sheath backwards. Blade should be drawn directly towards opponent's eyes to prevent opponent from noticing how long the blade is.ĥ. Align the sword in the proper drawing direction. The left hand thumb is in position to push the tsuba (hand guard) to unlock the blade, and the right hand should grip the sword's handle with the hand coming up from under the handle (wrist closer to ground, fingers extending up)Ĥ. Both hands come up to the handle simultaneouslyģ. Ready position: hands at the side and knees slightly bentĢ.
Finally, draw the blade and cut horizontally at shoulder height.ġ. Next, turn the blade and sheath such that the cutting edge is outward. First, push the blade away from the sheath. For the beginner, this 1st move can be broken down into Push, Turn, Step, and Draw.
