(karate) InFi by Tanaka Have you ever noticed that many karate practitioners' styles look completely different in a real fight compared to traditional karate? Have you ever observed that during spontaneous free fighting, it's nearly impossible to guess a competitor's traditional style—unless it's already known?

Sweapons (or simply Sweap ) is my personal armed martial art style. The system focuses on six practical and versatile weapons. These are both realistic for self-defence situations and rich in artistic expression and application.
