How to Spin Sheath a Katana #Shorts

*This is a way that I was taught as an iaido trainee, and there are different methods depending on the ryuha style. First, hold the katana in front of you. You spin the katana in your left hand using your right hand. After spinning, you bring your right hand near your left shoulder as you make a fist. Hit the open space on the handle with your right fist, which is the movement intended to remove the blood off the blade. Hold the handle with your right hand reversed, and grab the entrance of the scabbard with the left hand you let go. Let the katana naturally spin down using its own weight, and when the katana reaches the scabbard, start sheathing. However, beginners may drop their swords, so it’s recommended to practice with an iaito (training blunt katana) instead of a real katana.
