1964 Book Editorial note

The Study of Jitte and Torinawa

Original title: 十手捕縄の研究: 日本捕具考

Also known as Jitte Torinawa no Kenkyū: Nihon Hogu-kō

Language Not recorded

Nawa Yumio's 1964 study of Japanese arrest implements, published by Yuzankaku, documents jitte and arresting ropes in a 240-page illustrated volume.

It supplies historical context for arresting-rope traditions often discussed alongside kinbaku, while remaining a study of capture equipment rather than an erotic rope manual.
