That’s why everybody should have at least basic skills in martial arts to be able to defend themselves and their family. I started doing martial arts at the age of 12. Karate was my first martial art. I trained it for 8 years. Then I switched to Ninjutsu because it’s an authentic martial art and not a sport. I learned kicks and punches, levers and throws, and handling weapons. I trained for 12 years in that martial arts before I stopped. I’m not the best martial artist, but I know enough to do a lot of damage to an attacker.

Since I started Martial Arts, I love Japanese Swords. I got my first blunt sword at Christmas with 12. Today I own a set of [Daishō](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daish%C5%8D) (_Japanese_ 大小, big-little), which is a _Katana_ and a _Wakizashi_. They are hand-forged from carbon steel and unbelievably sharp. One of these swords can cut a human in half.
