Nariharu Kuramoto sensei is one of Nakamura Sensei's top student who is said to have had some real fight experience. He has a dojo that trains people in true combat karate. I'll post more in the future.
In the pic above, he is punching a sandbag. Notice the sandbag is fixed to a wooden frame so it does not swing away like a boxing punching bag. I think this will discourage the puncher from "pushing" the bag which is not what you want in karate. I've tried to make a similar tool by filling a leather bag with sand but finding a good sturdy structure to attach the bag has been difficult. I'm sticking with makiwara for now.
