Finally, the age-old debate between Hakuda and Zanjutsu can be put to rest! This was very important to capitalize upon since the difference between martial arts and swordsmanship is simple to determine, but there are other factors to consider when speaking of Zanjutsu specifically. I like to think of Zanjutsu as being a far more straightforward way of using the philosophy that many Samurai and swordsmanship masters have believed in for many many centuries. And so there is a lot to consider. Hopefully with these distinctions now made clear, I can see more real Hakuda and Zanjutsu Masters coming up on the site rather than the standard hand-to-hand masters and sword swinging.
