Waza Katto

The ability to channel a highly precise and incredibly thin blade of chakra along the cutting edge of a bladed weapon, and using that chakra to slice other chakra-based attacks in half with extreme precision. This is incredibly difficult to perform, and though it gets easier with practice, it always requires immense focus. This means that a few spare seconds of preparation required, though extremely skilled users can prepare the technique even in motion. The micro-sized blade of chakra slices through the raw chakra of other ninjutsu, and other chakra based attacks alone. Using this technique on anything else will result in lesser damage than what would usually be done, meaning to get the full effect of the ability, you have to be able to turn it off and on again.

In order to truly master the entirety of this technique, it can take years of devotion and practice to the learning of Waza Katto exclusively to be able to use it adeptly in combat. For this reason, the Sōhei Monks nicknamed the techinque 頭のための手の死 (lit. Death of the Hands for the Head), which nobody really quite gets. The monks were weird.
