BLADE 2007 - Sword Demostration

James Williams presented an exciting demonstration of Japanese swords and techniques as used by the ancient warriors.

James is slicing through rolls of rice mats that have been soaked with water.
This simulates the resistance of cutting through a human leg.

Several times James demonstrated making one cut and then making a second cut before the severed mat could fall

James wowed the crowd with his demonstrations

Sometimes two swords are better than one
