Ota (Hanshi 7th Dan) vs Takasaki (Hanshi 8th Dan), 112th Enbu Taikai

Probably the oldest Kendoka of the 112th Enbu Taikai: Ota (Age: 102) and Takasaki (Age: 93). Ota-Sensei is one the very very few ones (maybe the only one?) who holds the title of Hanshi despite being not 8th Dan, which is the requirement for Hanshi nowadays. 639 （茨城）髙﨑慶男 - 太田博方（大阪） 第112回　全日本剣道演武大会　剣道　範士の部　七段　八段 Facebook:
