The Korean bamboo sword hit the tsuba (hand guard). And to take this "kote" you need to strike effectively with the "kote" rather than striking first. 16th WKC Amishiro vs. Takenouchi Overtime Amishiro showed effective "kote" in Takenouchi's techniques.
debatable, not the best hasuji and form, one can give it, but also ok not to give ippon in my opinion (watch takenouchi vs hatakenaka during all Japan in 2014 , second ippon was the same and takenouchi got also men, while hatakenaka's kote was not awarded)
@@kentv5131 The same situation in the final of 16th WKC, but Amishiro got kote, and I don't understant what the different is ua-cam.com/video/nNT_VAEgZ2k/v-deo.html
Not really. If you look at the playback in 0.25x speed, you could see that Lee's sword was stroke down right before it made any meaningful impact with Takenouchi's kote. Pretty close though. It's a pretty classic technique. One blocks off every other area and intentionally leaves the wrist open, effectively forcing you to go for the kote, but unless you are facing someone significantly slower, kote is just never going to work here, because your sword would have to travel a significantly longer distance than your opponent's. There are plenty of ways to counter this but going for kote is honestly the worst way to do it. Kasumi is not that strong of a defense if one don't fall in the trap of focusing on the sword.
@@spaike97 My guess is it's based on sound. Listen to it, there's a lot of shinai hitting shinai noise. I think the shimpan thought Takenouchi kaeshi'd the kote.
You never know if it's really an ippon by watching video. However in this kind of kote vs men, usually men wins, doesn't matter if kote really hits, it's just really hard for shinpan to see the kote. Also Takenouchi alreday defending his kote, now it's not a greagt ippon for kote because you don't have good "chance" factor.
Do went in too

4'00 it's clear that Lee got kote, shinpan made wrong decision
