What is Battojutsu?

Charles,

Kogusoku and Koshi No Mawari are used by different ryuha as a term for sword drawing, instead of using the iai term. They are used on their own, not with a prefix.

They're just other words for iai. :)
 
Gotcha. I was looking specifically for alternate suffixes for Iai. That's where the confusion came in. Iai-battodo is probably what led to the confusion. Apparently Nakamura, or Nakayama(forget which) used it in a book, so I included it.
 
That would be Nakamura Taisaburo. The best person to ask about the terminology for iai- battodo would be Guy Power on e-budo. He has trained under Nakamura sensei for many years.
