That is for when you have a knife. I should have been more specific; they have a knife, you are unarmed. One of the reasons I laugh whenever the Knives come out. Best advice is the line in Unforgiven, where they say you shot an unarmed man, and Clint says -"Well he should have armed himself."
My point was that gif shows how sharp a knife can be. I will cut straight through and into the bone when they cut you. Yet the reality defense people like Krav Maga will do some crazy stupid shit during the seminars. They ever try anything they teach and they will be getting toe tagged.
There are so many arteries, nerves and organ targets on a human it's not even funny. A well trained knife fighter in a close in fight (like some spec ops guys) are going to kill you quickly or just leave you bleeding out.Getting sliced is bad, for sure, but unless it's the neck it's usually a lot less lethal than getting run through the chest.
1 word.....gun.Getting sliced is bad, for sure, but unless it's the neck it's usually a lot less lethal than getting run through the chest.
But yes. There are a lot of poseurs out there disseminating dangerous ideas when it comes to knife techniques though, for sure. If I see one more "expert" demonstrate a defense where they go to the inside of the knife attack, or making an X with their arms to block a forward low thrust, I'm gonna fuckin lose it.
For anyone interested in knife skills and not going to the hospital or dying, I have two words for you: pekiti tirsia.

And peeps question why cops shoot a knife weilder 17 times.Don't mistake an interest in edged weapon combat to mean an aversion to ballistic solutions.
Knives are still very much relevant today for a reason, they work. For >99% of the population, inside of 21feet and facing a determined assailant - you gettin cut, before you can bring accurate fire to bear.
Anything's better than fingernails, and I've never known a good blade to jam or be in need of a reload.

Yeah no sympathy Khaled. Bills himself as The Man of the house yet won't man up and 'return the favor'? That's pathetic.
