it's in spanish(where is the original version??), but the images are self explanatory.

btw, Neil.

where is the original page for your site's shinai tutorial? seems like a lot of people copied it, and some translated it and used it(me :D), but when i went back to the sask page, i couldn't find it anywhere.

You know, I don't think that was ever up on our site. It's a scan of a sheet we give to our beginners. Someone asked for something like that on iaido-l a million years ago, one of our members scanned it and posted it and now the thing is on a half-dozen websites. But not on ours, oddly enough...

You may also find pictures here for some of the methods for tying tsuru.

I've consulted him, but he's out to lunch most of the time. Wait, it's me...
