Often in
karate you meet people who report on which techniques are the true techniques
of karate, and that "the others" do not know them and would not
understand any of them. Since I often know both sides, I say this: That's not
true.
Anyway, in the
Sesan des Goju-ryu you can find the "throat attack with the finger
scissors." This technique with its corresponding name can be found as
early as 1938 in published form by Mabuni Kenwa and Nakasone Genwa.
The entire
terminological phrase is "Kehl attack with the finger scissors"
(Yubi-basami inké seme). In this case, the terminology actually describes the
technique, which is not always the case.
Incidentally,
this technique is also mentioned in the ancient martial arts script
"Bubishi", as a countermeasure in case one should be bitten by a
human being. So don't forget, just in case.
Mabuni Kenwa (right) demonstrates the "throat attack with the finger scissors" with right as a response to a left fist bump by Taira Shinken (left).
The arm
posture of Mabuni's left arm suggests that this application derives from the
Sesan des Goju-ryu.
