Kenjutsu is the name given to the techniques developed by notorious samurai and that are practiced in Japan in the form of katas (pre-defined movements that simulate combat using a wooden sword).

Kendo is the sport created by simplifying Kenjutsu techniques into 4 basic strokes and one kamae (posture/stance), using a modern Bogu (armor) and Shinai (bamboo sword).

Kenjutsu Combat, created by Sensei Jorge Kishikawa, is the application of ancient Kenjutsu techniques in combat with modern Bogu and Shinai, making it possible to do a sparring training but not limited to Kendo strikes. There are other weapons such as Kodachi (similar to shinai, but smaller), two swords and Naginata (halberd pole).
