Background

In 1985 Brent L. Anderson started training at a bloody knuckles, rough and tumble Bushidokan dojo in Kansas City, MO. As a troubled teen, he wasn't looking for sport or a new hobby; he wanted to learn how to hurt those who had hurt him in some brutal street fights. Luckily, though Watson's Bushidokan was a tough, hard-hitting, fighters' dojo – it was also one that taught honor and self-control modeled on the Code of Bushido (The Way of the Warrior).

Nearly four decades later Mr. Anderson operates one of Bushidokan's Certified Training Centers (CTC). The CTCs were appointed by founder and martial arts legend, Jim 'Ronin' Harrison to carry on the legacy of Bushidokan. Brent is one of an elite few to be promoted to black belt personally by Jim Harrison.

Mr. Anderson specializes in street self-defense, law enforcement tactics, combat jujitsu, and deadly threat survival. He integrates the conventional karate/kickboxing/judo/jujitsu of his Ko Heichi Bushidokan® school with his brutally effective B.A. Survival Tactics™ training.

The BUSHIDO knife is a memorial to Jim 'Ronin' Harrison (1936-2020), one of the founding fathers of American karate, kickboxing, and MMA. Harrison was called "one of the most dangerous men in the world" by Bruce Lee and has been praised by the likes of Colonel Roger 'Ike' Slaughter, ret. (Special Forces, Commanding Officer, Delta Force) and Commander Richard Smithers (U.S. Navy Commanding Officer SEAL Team 5 & Commanding Officer Buds).

In addition to training elite special operators, Jim Harrison spent a lifetime teaching law enforcement and fighting champions from every major style of martial arts. It’s rare to be acclaimed an expert in multiple martial sports (judo, jujitsu, karate, kickboxing) as well as by the black ops/street-survival community; yet Jim Harrison was an icon in both worlds.

The BUSHIDO will be a knife every bit as tough and versatile as Jim Harrison and the reputation he built over his 67 years of involvement in a multitude of warrior arts. Jim Harrison's notoriety in the world of martial arts, law enforcement, real world combat/threat elimination and the Special Forces community promises to have a ready-made marketing base for a blade bearing his name.

The Bushido designed by Brent L. Anderson, includes his patent pending technology. The technology can be integrated into a countless number of folding knives, saws and other tools where a rugged multi-positional lock is desired.
