There’s something very alluring and majestic about the sword. In comparison, other weapons and tools seem ungainly and crude. There are several martial arts focused on mastering this fine weapon and one of them is Kumdo.
This is an ancient Korean school of swordsmanship that dates back to the Three Kingdoms period before the Common Era. Over time this martial art has incorporated aspects of other swordsmanship techniques, including the Japanese kendo.
