Description

When you check the length of your wushu sword, hold the handle with your fingers pointing down towards the knob. When your arm is fully extended and relaxed, the tip of your wushu straightsword should go slightly over your ear but not over your head.
Turn your hand around so that the blade goes up behind your shoulder. When you walk out on the wushu carpet to perform a form, always carry your straightsword like this. Switch hands after the greeting.

Advice

You carry your straightsword with your left hand, but use it with your right.
