Judo is a term that refers to the modern version of the Japanese martial art and combat sport. The name, meaning "gentle way", was developed nineteenth-century Japan, and martial arts experts agree that the most important feature lies mainly in its competitive aspect, and their main goals or objectives are throwing your opponent on the ground, immobilizing him / her with a clutch or grappling maneuver, and / or hit an opponent in the presentation through the use of a choke or blockage of an elbow. The player's hand and feet move to strike or push an opponent, along with other weapons, but these should not be a pre-arranged manner, and are rejected in official judo competitions or free practice, randori.

This martial art form developed from the art of jujitsu, referring to a system of hand-to-hand. In feudal Japan, the bushi or samurai is credited for developing jujutsu, even during the heyday of the samurai was known as Yoroi kumi-uchi. This advance maneuver consisted of a grab, with both opponents fully dressed in traditional Japanese armor. As the sport spread throughout the Western world and quickly began to grow in popularity, became part of the sports media, leading to its inclusion as an official Olympic sport at the 1964 Tokyo Games. With the entry of judo as an official Olympic sport, has been more focus in its most physical and competitive, according to the purists and critics, it was at the expense of their moral, intellectual and spiritual.

Over the past century, the official rules of judo competitions have changed dramatically. Initially, the sport of Kodokan Judo was seen as a form of jujutsu and official competitions were usually held in the old style jujutsu. According to the initial participants competition in those days was extremely hard, sometimes a cost of some of the players of their lives. Competition between different jujitsu schools was a vision common, and the Kodokan participated in the challenge of many of these games. The sports professionals are called judoka or a judo player. In its early years, however, only those ranked 4th Dan or higher are called judoka, but the current rules have been amended. According to sports historians, the suffix-ka, when added a noun, refers to an individual known to have the experience or knowledge of that topic.

However, experts point out that the main objective of this combat sport is the launch (nagezawa) and bases (ne-waza). The launches are classified into two types of techniques, and these could well be done through the use of techniques standing (tachi-waza), or through the use of culling techniques (te-waza).

The samurai sword would be more clearly defined as any Japanese sword wielded by Samurai or Bushi, as they were known in Japanese history, however, modern films and television programs have been incorrectly interpreted to be only the katana well known, and rarely use the proper terminology or classifications of real samurai swords.

To discover the history of the Samurai Sword we have to review the past, during the Middle Ages, when the use of steel instead of bronze for edged weapons vastly improved, single-edged swords became more popular in Asia, and the production of the Japanese and Tachi Uchigatana began. Japanese swords, or Nihonto are traditional weapons of foil used throughout the history of Japan. The Tachi was primarily used by cavalry with the edge downward and to the curvature near the hilt of the sword. The Uchigatana was mainly used by foot soldiers and lead to the edge of the strap at the greater curvature of the tip of the sword. With the evolution of military and feudal society in these times, a new warrior class emerged. They were the masters of the art of war and went from being simply employees serve as security guards powerful leaders, in a totally dominant class of there own, the Samurai.

This led to the creation of a feudal army then established roads of Bushido, which dominates the social structure of Japan for the next 700 years. Its main function as knights including total and absolute loyalty military for which they pledged to fight, and if necessary, die defending, which resulted in the need for a single-sheet top gun used in close melee combat and defense. Their demand for these weapons produced high quality swords for the next generation of perfection unmatched because they had to be flexible enough to withstand the direct impact without breaking, but also had to be hard enough to maintain its sharp edge.

Only the most experienced Japanese sword smiths were able to develop methods of forging and heat treatment that resulted in the swords that had these properties, which eventually was named the katana. Even the katana changed much in the style in the course of history of the samurai sword. At the end of the 15th 14 and earlier tended to be two and a half feet long, but by the 16th century the length was adjusted to two feet, with a circular or square tsuba Guard wrapped hand grip that could accommodate two hands. These swords Katana were often accompanied by the fact that similar but smaller or Shoto Wakizashi swords, and the two arms together represented the social power and personal honor of wielding Samurai.

After many periods of war throughout the history of Japanese art of sword making deteriorated and it was not until the age Shinshinto sword smiths who came to the construction of superior quality blades, after rediscovering lost several techniques. As soon as the era of the Meiji Restoration, however, was passed which prohibited the possession of all samurai swords as weapons, but one class of privileged. As a result Smiths ancient sword teacher began to hide their forged blades simple foot sticks to the soul of the samurai life, and the superior swordsmanship could survive and not be lost.
