Why do Japanese samurai bring two knives?

Generally, two knives are used for punching holes, and the short one is used for threatening. As the main weapon, punching is actually used as a backup weapon, because in the fierce battlefield, combat knives are easily damaged because they have to block swords and attack armor.

Generally speaking, for Japanese samurai, the threat is not used for abdominal incision, but for abdominal incision with a special short knife. Taidao or broadsword are generally not used at the same time with the threat difference in fighting, but it is said that Musashi Miyamoto, the first Japanese Musashi, used two knives. The "two knives" of the second knife flow means that the knife is too big and the threat is poor.

As a weapon since ancient times, the mountain city is famous for its beautiful shape, and many famous knives are collected as works of art, which contains the symbolic significance of the samurai soul. Different from other countries' knives, one of the biggest characteristics of Japanese knives is that besides the appearance decoration, the blade itself also shows a sense of art.

In Japan, knife work is called "knife work", "knife work" or "knife forging"
