The basics of the sword style of Niten Ichi-ryu.
- Special techniques, such as more complex attacks and parries are separate moves.
This style utilises a pair of swords, one long and one short - a katana and a wakizashi - one wielded in each hand.
In Niten Ichi-ryu, the primary means of defence is the wakizashi, and the primary means of offense is the katana.
For this purpose, the wakizashi is oft kept close upon to the samurai, whilst the katana seeks to strike.
Of course, should the opportunity rise to approach otherwise, in Niten Ichi-ryu it is taken.
