Been involved in the martial arts since about 1977. Something of a training addict, especially in my early days. Have studied Chinese, Japanese, Okinawan and Korean systems with a dash of Filipino and US eclectics thrown in for good measure.

Eventually settled into a primary focus on Okinawan "te" systems (mostly Shorin styles), Japanese koryu systems, Okinawan Kobu and Chinese boxing (Northern Crane and Seven Star Mantis) systems.

I have a fondness of vintage martial arts weapons as can be seen here:

Hello and welcome! I'm interested in Kobudo Weapons, I have a small collection; unfortunately, not so vintage but I am a keen learner of the Sai and Nunchaku. I have no real interest in blades; but I have a couple of modern Tanto and a 1920's Kukri. I look forward to reading your posts, I'm glad you've joined the forum; enjoy.

Look to the far mountain and see all.

welcome to KF :) Enjoy it

Entirely possible. I'm one of those "famous" internet people.

:lol:

A clear sign that I'm not training like I should be.

Hello and welcome to the forum.

If you believe in an ideal. You don't own it ; it owns you.
