SolidAir Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Now i know name on one side in Kanji for most, what on the other?What do you have ? Be like water !
ShoriKid Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Century label I think...no kanji. No dress belt/work out belt. Just the same one my instructor handed me back in 97. I keep thinking about one with dojo kanji on it, but still not sure if I want to do that just yet. Kisshu fushin, Oni te hotoke kokoro. A demon's hand, a saint's heart. -- Osensei Shoshin Nagamine
RJCKarate Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 I have my name on one side in katakana, and my style name (Matsubayashi-ryu) in kanji on the other. Reece Cummings Kodokan Cummings Karate Dojo 5th Dan, Matsubayashiryu (Shorinryu) Karatedo Kobujutsu 2nd Dan, Yamaneryu Kobudo
Wastelander Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Most of the black belts in my system have their name on one side and the name of the system on the other side.

sensei8 Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Rank identifiers on my left. I know, boring! The right side has changed twice thru the many decades, but that side's blank for now. **Proof is on the floor!!!
Spodo Komodo Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 The belt I never wear has name and style like everyone else. The belt I actually wear in the dojo has just a small wado-ryu dove and fist emblem in gold at each end. It was a present and I wish I knew where to get them from because I like it way more than my katakana/kanji-embroidered belt.
Chunmonchek Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 On my formal "go to organizational events" obi, I have my organization name on one end and my Chinese name on the other, both in Chinese. More importantly, I've plenty of "blood, sweat and tears" on all of my obi. Chris
mal103 Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 I was going to say sweat and dirt but got beat to it.... Mine is blank, not even a label as I had to shorten it slightly and chopped the label off. Nothing fancy just like our Gi.We are going to get club named belts for all the instructors soon so will have a spare. I'm more interested in what the belt is wrapped around and how I train.
vantheman Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Name on one side (in English)Tiger, Leopard, Snake, Dragon, Crane on the other (In Kanji) Van
Harkon72 Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 My Black belt hasn't been worn for years, I earned it two styles ago. But it has my Name and "Shorin Ryu Karatedo" in Kanji. Look to the far mountain and see all.
