Iaijutsu Cut: Reverse Draw
Descrição
Offhand draw cuts are a particularly unexpected move, especially among reputable duelists. Taking up a reverse grip with the blade down using the off hand, the warrior makes a quick upward draw, cutting for their foe’s face or torso. While this draw leaves the user vulnerable, such an unorthodox draw can often end the fight before it begins.
