Jutte<\/em> or Jitte<\/em> translates literally to \"ten hands\". The number \"ten\", when written in japanese, resembles the shape of a cross, and refers to the hook that is emblematic to the jutte<\/em>. Another interpretation is that the jutte<\/em> gives you the strength of ten hands combined. In practice, the jutte<\/em> is a 40cm long baton-like object, usually made of steel, which has a hook furnished to it to aid in the capture or binding of an opponents blade, clothing or body part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The jutte<\/em> became more commonplace during the Edo<\/em>-period (1603-1868), during which it was forbidden to carry a sword within a shogun<\/em>'s palace or within most sacred sites. Due to this palace guards carried a jutte<\/em> in stead of a sword. As the Edo<\/em>-period progressed, the jutte<\/em> further evolved into the badge of honour of samurai police officers or especially high-ranking civil officers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The jutte<\/em> can be used as a baton, and it can be used to aid in the disarming of an opponent's weapons as a supporting tool in mutodori<\/em> techniques. It can also be applied to locks, bindings and strangles. A typical use case is to strike the opponent's fingers with the metal shaft, breaking the bones of the fingers so that the opponent would drop their weapon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bujinkan kata<\/em>s, i.e. movement sets for the jutte<\/em> come from the school of Kukishinden ryu<\/em>, but the weapon can be applied to several other techniques.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
