[edit] Two Katanas vs Katana and Wakazashi

I am under the understanding that Niten Ichi is predominantly practised with two katana, and not with a katana and wakazashi pair. What little I recall of Musashi's writings I think he recommended training right from the beginning with two katana, as he regarded this as the most desirable practice and said it would be difficult to have the off-hand un-learn the wakazashi in order to pick up a katana. --Enlashok 22:28, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

From what I recollect, fighting would usually be done with the daisho; the twin katana thing I'd only heard for training. --Gwern (contribs) 00:49, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
