How to Fight With The Ginunting Sword | Kali Sword Techniques

The design of the exceptional Filipino Ginunting Sword requires a close look at its capabilities, so that the practitioner can optimize it for training and for self-defense. A relatively unique design compared to most Filipino Swords, the Ginunting excels due to its lightness and quickness in hand.

In this video, I do a comparative analysis of the @biegler_bladeworks Ginunting and the traditional Itak Tagalog from @traditional_filipino_weapons, and how both require adjustments in terms of optimizing their use, and how each have their own unique strategic implementation.

I emphasize the use of the Ilustrisimo Punch Cut, along with DeFondo principles for close-quarters application.

I hope you enjoy this video! 🙏🏽🔥👊🏽
