Metsubushi
(''gantsubushi'')〔(''Secrets of the samurai: a survey of the martial arts of feudal Japan'', Oscar Ratti, Adele Westbrook, Tuttle Publishing, 1991 P.323 )〕- "eye closers", is the name for a variety of implements and techniques used by samurai police and other individuals to temporarily or permanently blind or disorient an opponent in feudal Japan. ==Description== One type of ''metsubushi'' was used by police for blowing powdered pepper or dust into the eyes of a suspect. It is described as being a lacquer or brass box with a wide mouthpiece for blowing on, and a hole or pipe on the other end for directing the powder into the eyes of the person being captured.〔 One type of ''metsubushi'' was a powder made up of ashes, ground-up pepper, mud, flour, and dirt. For severe damage, it could also include fine-ground glass. It was kept in hollowed-out eggs (happō), bamboo tubes or other small containers. When confronted by an attacker, a person would throw the ''metsubushi'' in the attacker's eyes, blinding him, while the victim ran off or hid himself.
