    You can actually see his real life sword fighting ability in his movies.
    The way he drops and follows through with his cuts, the perfect angle of the blade while cutting.
    Truly awesome.
    Psalms 144:1
    Praise be my Lord my Rock,
    He trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle !

    Mifuen carried the role of a swordsman better than anyone, probably because he was one

    LOL, well, the Russian had it coming ! sick man of asia indeed !!

    As for Mifune, his skill level on the screen was quite good, I can't really think of many that match up to him on the screen.
    Master Sugino of the TSKSR ( Katori shinto ryu) was said to have been the choreograher of a few of his movies and Mifune trained with him, though how much is uncertain, I have also hear he had training in the Yagyu shinkage ryu and kendo.
