So I thought I was done with the last video with talking about swords and what certain parts of swords could be used for, but I recently read something so absurd, that I had to touch on it. Basically, I'm being informed that the reason why rings are at the end of Chinese Sabers is to help with the reverse grip.

Seriously.

I go into how this just doesn't make much sense, though I also offer to anyone out there who knows better, who can prove to me that's what these rings are for, to show me proof of this. I'd be EXTREMELY interested.
