Shintaido? Don't. Hare Krishna meets Ki-Aikido....
Judo is excellent for combative purposes, as well as sport.
If you live within range of a Kyokushin Dojo, go. It's a highly combative form of Karate, which practices full contact (no fist-to-face) sparring, no pads.

SevenStar: It's hilarious seeing people's reactions when they see a big, black dude with a sword walking toward them.
Masterkiller: Especially when they're at the ATM.
WTF? How did we go from the White Haired Devil strangling and beating guys to death in a teahouse, to Mr Miyagi and Jhoon Rhee?
