Miyamoto Musashi was said to have used a 120cm odachi named 伯耆國安綱 during his fight at Ichijōji against 70 opponents. What is a 120cm odachi like? Exactly the one in this video!

Very nice video again Lancelot. That is an interesting sword, you have had many models that get me curious.
And I must say you handled it very well in such a narrow & small space.

My first thought when seeing that sword in use: Run away!

I missed your first post from yesterday but wow. For 70 adversaries that looks like a good choice. I would hate to swing that thing in such a narrow space.

Very impressive sword. It looks truly fearsome when in motion.
