Шаблон:Nihongo3,[1] properly called Шаблон:Nihongo3, is training armour used primarily in the Japanese martial art of kendo,[2][3] with variants used for jūkendō, tankendo, and naginata.

History

During the Edo period (1603-1868) the use of real swords for training purposes was discouraged due to injuries, with wooden practice swords in the form of Шаблон:Transl and Шаблон:Transl were often used instead. To further reduce injuries, practice armour based on traditional samurai armor was developed, with this practice armour being the basis for the modern Шаблон:Transl.[4]

Description and use

The word Шаблон:Transl consists of two parts: Шаблон:Transl, meaning "protect" or "defend," and Шаблон:Transl, meaning "equipment" or "tool."[2] A set of Шаблон:Transl has four components:[2][3]

A fifth component, Шаблон:Nihongo (shin protectors, or greaves), are worn by naginatajutsu practitioners.

Шаблон:Transl

The Шаблон:Transl protects the face, neck, and shoulders. It consists of a facemask with several horizontal metal bars running the entire width of the face, from the chin to the top of the head. To this is attached a long rectangular thick cloth padding that curves over the top of the head and extends to cover the shoulders. A throat protector is attached to the bottom of the facemask. The Шаблон:Transl is held in place with a pair of woven cords that wrap around the head and are tied at the back. The back of the Шаблон:Transl is left open for ventilation and the back of the head is unprotected. The target areas of the Шаблон:Transl are the centre top, and upper left and right sides for cutting strikes and the centre of the throat protector for a thrust.[5]

Шаблон:Transl

The Шаблон:Transl are mitten-like gloves. They were designed expressly for kendo.Шаблон:Sfnp While appearing to be cumbersome, enough mobility is allowed to grip the Шаблон:Transl in a comfortable, powerful, and firm way. Шаблон:Transl for naginatajutsu practitioners have a singulated index finger and thumb to better facilitate the rapid shifting of the hands along the length of the Шаблон:Transl's shaft.Шаблон:Citation needed Шаблон:Transl have a little less padding than those used for kendo.Шаблон:Citation needed In the past, Шаблон:Transl were often made with fully articulated fingers. This is rarely seen today as there can be a safety issue with snagged fingers. A special heavily padded design known as Шаблон:Nihongo are used by some Шаблон:Transl, most notably Itto-ryu.Шаблон:Citation needed The target area is the wrist portion of each Шаблон:Transl.[5]

The main component of the Шаблон:Transl is the gently-curving stomach and chest protector. The modern form has a pronounced bulge to help direct the force of strikes away from the soft areas in the middle of the torso.Шаблон:Citation needed Lacquered bamboo is traditionally used although lacquered paper 'fibre' (frequently misidentified as fiberglass) or moulded plastic are used for less expensive Шаблон:Transl.Шаблон:Citation needed The Шаблон:Transl is supported from the shoulders by two diagonal ties and is restrained at the small of the back with another set of ties. The target areas of the Шаблон:Transl are the two lower sides for a slashing cut to the stomach.[5] The top half of the Шаблон:Transl is a valid target for a thrust in naginata.Шаблон:Citation needed In the past, this was also a valid target for a thrust in Kendo.Шаблон:Citation needed

The Шаблон:Transl is a thick cloth belt that wraps around the waist and ties under the front flap in front of the groin. Sturdy cloth covered flaps hang from the belt to protect the upper legs and groin. The flaps run along half of the belt's length, which should be positioned over the front half of the body. The centre flap is usually covered with a name tag—Шаблон:Nihongo or Шаблон:Nihongo—that identifies the name of the wearer and the Шаблон:Transl or country they represent.Шаблон:Citation needed There is no target point on Шаблон:Transl, it is for protection against off-target and accidental strikes.Шаблон:Citation needed
