Eric, I have been to Musashi's home were he wrote the Five Rings in Kyoto. Have you? In his most famous battle he used a wooden pole instead of his Samurai swords! I have included the traditional weapons he carried and used.

First of all, sorry for my poor english, I'm french :) Well, you can name it "Samouraï" ... and this way this is a good drawing But please, please, do not use Musashi's name. Actually, you have'nt taken the time to read, yes even read his Book of Five Rings... and I personnaly find it disrespectful to draw the short saber in the belt. Best regards Éric
