Good clip!
I am a total beginner to Iaido, (meh... even for Katana). So I would appreciate if some or anyone could made a video or describe how to: "Put the Katana back into it's Saya without looking and safely without cutting your fingers"
Excuse me for my noobish question ;D

If you don't want to follow a link:
During no-to(sheating) you hold the koiguchi(that's the opening in the saya[scabbard]) tightly with your left hand, with a very small space between your thumb and the base/first joint of your forefinger.
As you draw the tsuak(grip) forward, the back(mune) of the blade slides along your thumb until the kissaki(that's 'tip of the sword') naturally falls right into that little gap you make with your left hand. Then, holding the saya with your left, and the sword with your right, you just naturally guide it in.
Just don't go too fast and it's pretty fool-proof. If you try to go too fast you may end up running the blade through your left hand...
Also, don't try it with a european sword. They have two edges and that will just end badly...
