Sengra Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Wow! I just realized I've never introduced myself. Karateforums is the first ever forum I've ever joined, and well, being a noob in it all, I jumped to posting my first ever post in the weapons section almost a year ago. I think this is long overdue. My apologies to you all for being rude. I'm from the Philippines and I've trained a little bit of karate, taekwondo, jeet con do, arnis and aikido but never got past more than the second level because of health reasons (I was operated because of tumor) that plagued me during highschool. Glad to have survived it all. Now i'm in college and discovered that I had the knack for fencing. I learned it first as a PE, then joined the Fencing Club in my university without paying anything. I got lucky I guess. Now I fence three times a week. I am interested in weapons, but sadly all I could do right now is just read about them, as I neither have the time nor the resources. But one day soon, I will resume my training, God willing. The stronger swordsman does not always win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerDude Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Welcome aboard! If you think only of hitting, springing, striking or touching the enemy, you will not be able actually to cut him. You must thoroughly research this. - Musashi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
