A historical martial-arts guide rooted in Jedok Geom

Nathan Jo’s guide examines Jedok Geom, a sword tradition associated here with General Li Rusong and its transmission to the Korean military in the 1590s. It traces the form’s later formal documentation under Joseon Crown Prince Sado in 1759, using that record as the basis for a modern practical study. The book pairs historical background with a breakdown of the style’s swordsmanship, framing the material as instruction for contemporary training rather than history alone. Its compact scope centers on connecting a preserved Joseon-era source to hands-on martial-arts practice.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

Book overview

General Li Rusong was a skilled swordsman on the battlefield who struck fear in the hearts of his enemies, and had a ferocious sword style that was so impressive it was taught to the Korean military from the 1590s. Joseon Crown Prince Sado had this form formally recorded in 1759, and from this historic record we can revive the ancient arts and teach truly historic martial arts in the modern day.

Korean Swordsmanship from the Source: Jedok Geom deeply explores the history and swordsmanship of General Li's style and breaks it down into a practical guide that will turn a willing student into a competent swordsman.
