What is the name of a Japanese form of fencing?

Japanese technique of swordsmanship is called Kenjutsu, which literally means "fencing" ("ken" stands for sword and "jutsu" is technique or art). Modernly "Japanese Fencing" is a term used to describe Kendo, a modern form of fencing focused on philosophical and sportive aspects of swordsmanship.Kendo utilizes armor and blunt swords, counting points for attacks properly made in the allowed targets in similar fashion to European modern fencing. The basic difference between Kendo and Fencing, besides the different origins, is that the kendoka(as is called one who practises Kendo) is supposed to practice Kendo more as a philosophical martial art than as a sport.

When did fencing start?

Carvings have been found in Egypt of fencing matches that scholars say date back to 1200 BC. Click on the 'History of Fencing' link on this page to read more about the origins of the sport. More modern fencing came about around the high middle ages and renaissance when steel allowed swords to become lighter and thinner and the rapier was more heavily introduced. Epee and Foil came out of the dueling culture that followed. Fencing was not codified internationally until the 1900's. The Sabre is the most recent weapon and is a derivation of the cavalry sword (hence the upper body target area).
