Jukendo Martial Arts: Acquiring Proficiency In Self-Defense And Nonviolent Resolution: Techniques, Philosophy & More

By: Chéng, Yìchén

Jukendo is a contemporary Japanese martial art that emphasizes the bayonet, the spear-like instrument affixed to the barrel of a rifle. "Jukendo" is composed of the components "ju" (bayonet), "ken" (sword), and "do" (route). This renders the phrase "the way of the bayonet sword."
Jukendo integrates strategies sourced from traditional Japanese martial arts, with a particular emphasis on spear and sword maneuvers; however, its primary focus lies in the bayonet's application during combat. Early in the 20th century, it underwent development in Japan under the influence of military training techniques prevalent at the time.
Jukendo entails the study and mastery of a multitude of bayonet-based striking, thrusting, and blocking techniques. Skill, coordination, and accuracy are frequently developed through training with partners, sparring, and forms (kata). Jukendo is practiced as both a self-defense martial art and a competitive sport, with internationally recognized competitions governed by standardized regulations.
