Kumdo (Korean Sword) Cutting Action: at one of my centres Indooroopilly, Brisbane, Australia. This cut is a double cut. The second cut is on the mat as it is falling. We used a thin mat of bamboo (approx 6cm), which allows the mat to propel off the stand and fall to ground quicker. The speed of the cutting is about 0.4 of a second to complete both cuts...
