First let me apologize for my bad English. If you find it hard to read then I sorry.

I have learned traditional Kenjutsu. (If I want to be more specific, then its the Jikishin Kage-Ryu style kenjutsu, which is came from the Shinkage Ryu. It was founded around the mid-sixteenth century in Japan.) So long story in short, I always wanted a Samurai champion.

So the important things:

Akira Kurosawa, the magnificent director, and the all time favorite samurai, Sanjûrô. We got the same ronin image what Akira created, which is not a noble samurai. Oh no. Its a bad-ass, clever, crazy, bloodthirsty, and Mad Samurai, what we first saw in Yojimbo, thanks to the act of Toshirô Mifune. (Mifune was so bad-ass, in the skin of Sanjûrô, that Clint Eastwood played the western variation of that character in the 1964s movie which is called in this name: A Fistful of Dollars!)

"A Sword without a Sheath" is a reference to "Sanjuro", which was the 2nd movie in the series. Here is the quote:

"Mutsuta's wife: Killing people is a bad habit. You're too sharp. That's your trouble. You're like a drawn sword. Sharp, naked without a sheath. You cut well. But good swords are kept in their sheaths."
