Talk:Kenjutsu

Source and Speculation
First of all what is the source for this type of jutsu? Why do we think that in Naruto world they classify techniques with swords as a separate Jutsu type? If there are sources for this they should be referenced.

Secondly, if this all is canonical, then here are some facts:
 * 1.Taijutsu is hand-to-hand combat, without weapons, source is here: http://www.mangareader.net/93-5-3/naruto/chapter-5.html unless it's a mistranslation.
 * 2.Techniques that use ninja tools are considered Ninjutsu, examples: Manipulating Windmill Triple Blades, Manipulated Shuriken Technique (or Genjutsu in some cases: Demon Flute: Phantom Sound Chains).
 * 3.Swords are considered ninja tools.

All those facts together imply that all kenjutsu are ninjutsu, but we list some of kenjutsu (which don't use chakra flow or chakra in general) as either being taijutsu (Kimimaro's dances of the camelia and willow, Toad Sword Beheading) or being neither taijutsu nor ninjutsu (Cloud-Style Crescent Moon/Front/Reverse beheading, Seven Swords Dance)--Erik1310 (talk) 10:55, December 23, 2010 (UTC)
