Note: Must have first been taught Iaido and have a samurai biography.Being a katana wielder, may I ask what style you practice? I've studied Iaido (a variation of Iaijutsu), and I can tell you from experience that, while drawing the blade is a simple operation, being able to draw does not make one fast. (Note on the difference of the two: standard Iaido is a wide draw method with the elbow facing outwards so the range is also longer, where as reverse hand iaido has a shorter draw arc as the elbow is closer to the body and facing down giving the draw a almost parallel line to the body allowing for better use in close range however the reach is short). The user when using the reverse quick draw form they will bend their knees and they draw the katana with their back hand facing down and when fully unsheaved switched to the back hand facing up and by finishing the attack the user springs up to add extra speed to the deliverance of the attack. The form doesnt have quite the reach as standard Iaido but its perfect for close and tight situations.
(Gyaku Iai Kata) - Reverse Quickdraw Formĭescription: A variant form of Iaido where the user takes a reverse hand to draw their katana at quick speeds.
