  • Two martial arts experts. One’s got a knife, the other nothing. We told the unarmed pro to fight off the guy with the blade and escape without getting cut up. Does he? See for yourself what happens. And get ready to take in a healthy dose of reality.

      Smart smart man. Not there dumbass wannabe badass instructors who are like “ yeah disarm him and make him regret pulling a knife on you” no, run. The best option is to always run. If your being mugged, hand over what you have, nothing is worth your life. And if your cornered and can’t run, put your hands up, protect you wrists, and try and take control of the arm that had the weapon. In it(and disarm him if you can) this is all easier said then done especially in the heat of the moment. Even if you can stall long enough to make an opening go run, do it. And if you do keep your hands up and protect your wrists and try and go for the arm with the knife, your best bet is to push the guy with the knife and just book it, but if you can take the knife(only try if your 100% positive you can) then take it then run. If this is all they had then it effectively took the weapon away and also gave them less of a drive to chase after you now that you have a weapon. And the best choice of them all is carry a gun. If I wasn’t a felon then I would but I did my crime and have to pay the price, so now I carry a sharp ass knife. Look up knife laws in your area. Even a pocket knife is better than nothing. But if your state is not strict like my state (Indiana) you can carry certain types of knives. If by the very small chance someone from Indiana sees this comment, our knife laws are very loose. You can carry a blade of any size, and you can also carry butterfly knives or switchblades.

    I can confirm that his techniques are worth noting when it comes to knife defense. In my krav class I took a knife defense class that basically taught what he is doing. Secure the knife arm so that the opponent can't use it to attack while simultaneously hitting him with strikes such as elbow and knees to weaken or deal damage to him. That being said running away is definitely the best defense lol.

    I've had to escape being threatened with a knife only twice.
    1. As a kid (8 I think) me and my friend were threatened by two other kids, one holding a knife. We were prevented from walking past them My friend wanted to go home, so I used a branch with leaves to hold them at a distance as we slowly turned them around. As my friend fled, I also fled; going in two directions. Both of us outran them.
    2. When I was a teen (15) I was threatened with a knife under my throat when I tried drinking water at the school gymnasium. I had no choice but to surrender and do what he said. Got away with no scars.
    The best way is ALWAYS to avoid the fight. ALWAYS. But the reason why you learn to fight is to be prepared for when fighting is unavoidable... something I should clearly do with my bad luck.

    Did a seminar on self-defense as a finish up on a years' worth of classes (Kapap). One of the last exercises we did was training with rubber knives, with their edges painted with lipstick, while wearing nothing but pants and shoes.
    The point was not to "kill", but to see how many injuries we could avoid or dish out. At best our arms and forearms were cut clean. It is nearly impossible to get away unscathed from that.

    been doing martial arts training for around 20 years and also worked with a rapid response team ( border patrol ) . you do NOT take on a knife attacker if you are unarmed, any slash or puncture wound has the potential to be fatal ( it just takes one artery being clipped ). i have been cut a few times when i had to take on people armed with knifes, only by pure luck and thanks to my baton i did not get my throat slashed once ( i still have the scar ) and i was in full gear. if i was to choose i would just shoot someone attacking me with a knife

      Even if armed adrenoline is a powerful weapon. You can easily get slashed and bleed without major artery’s being cut cus of how clean they are. Also knife combat for armed vests outside the ceramic ones and stuff is also extremely dangerous, more dangerous then a pistol round according to tests. This is because the fibers in them are made to disperse impact, a stabbing weapon is EASILY a powerful and deadly tool to use against someone who’s armed and or armored

    Something to point out, the person with extensive skill is prepared and aware that the attack is incoming. A person with disproportionate advantage in the situation compared to the average person still sustained injuries in most of these scenarios and didn't manage to fend off the attack in some.
    Never fight a person with a knife if there is literally any chance to not fight them. Just run or give them the your stuff. No possession is worth dying over.

      and the knife guys uses classic boxing stance, giving the defender leverage(catching the non dominant hand, slamming into his body, making sure the knife has less speed, swinging in large arcs). The guy who has no training and the guy who has weapons training will face you dominant hand forward holding the knife, good luck catching that hand with a knife in it.

    Something else to keep in mind with this is that the defender is blocking, grabbing and holding as part of his defense. Prior to this, he is sustaining numerous slashes and stabs to his hands and forearms in almost every attack. This would limit his ability to grab and hold, as his muscles and tendons would be suffering serious injuries, in addition to veins and arteries being slashed and serious blood loss ensuing, So, his defense would in reality be much less effective than is being depicted. The fact that the attacker is being subdued in a lot of the scenarios is discounting the debilitating and cumulative effects the initial blows would have.

      Yeah, slash test 2, that one contact looks like it's in the general area to potentially be a brachial artery hit (a pretty good spot to check your own pulse). That's not good. Like that's only below carotid and maybe femoral for spots you don't want to get slashed (and obviously aorta itself, but that's more likely to be from a puncture than a slash).

    Defending yourself in the moment of a knife fight with martial arts moves is only part of the harsh reality of self defense, because from what Force on Force training has often taught, there is also identifying the threat with situational awareness, either choosing flight or deesculation after identifying the threat, then physically neutralizing the threat as an absolutely last resort if you can't run away.

    It seems that stabs are the main weakness of a knife strike. While they do usually cause much more severe harm than a slash they seem to leave your entire arm exposed for a block, and if your opponent grabs the knife arm your advantage is lost.
    Meanwhile slashes might not leave the deep penetrating wounds that stabs to, but each cut wears down your opponent in a metaphorical war of attrition and with slashes they seem to be much harder to stop. Cut muscle fibers don't move arms...

    • @shadowmaster452
      @shadowmaster452 Před 2 měsíci +1

      Yup, it's even worse if you're always doing downward stabs in pickaxe grip since you lose some range with the knife and they're the "easiest" to defend against (I say this as someone from a country where this is the common way to use a knife by thugs and junkies)
      Slashes are the most underrated way to use a knife. A moment that marked me as a kid was when I played GTA 4 and used the knife, the game actually used motion capture by Bas Rutten for the melee combat to give the player that vibe of being a military veteran with a lot of combat experience, point is? Niko would constantly switch between 1 or 2 quick stabs and some nasty neck slashing, quite similar to what's seen in the video here.
      A good knife fighter will use slashing, feints and some fencing basics, or at least that's the way I've taught myself also taking into consideration that some of the people who kinda know how to use a knife in my country do use fencing basics because they were brought to us from the spanish after getting colonized, it's even more prevalent among argentinians but I ain't from that country.
      If you're already 50/50 on survival chance against an untrained attacker, I don't even wanna imagine myself unarmed against some guy who knows how to move a knife.
      EDIT: knife defense isn't bs at all, it does work specially against an unarmed attacker, is it recommended to apply it? of course not, this is only for a hypothetical life or death situation, even more if sadly you're a slow runner like me. However the guy here does also miss a big important part which is creating distance and rotating around the attacker, distance not only helps keep you safe but also makes the attacker need to resort into stabs for the most part, which as you already mentioned are the knife's biggest weakness, rotating and parrying can also create an opening for escape while forcing the attacker to change angles and disorienting him. Barely moving like the guy in the video will only make the attacker's job easier since he can stab and cut with smaller movements, which are also harder to see specially with adrenaline pumping.

    I'll share my story since I see a lot of comments asking for other survivors to tell their's. I was a teenager, walking through the halls at high school (picture stereotypical bad inner-city school) and I thought someone punched me in the back really hard, I pivoted around and saw the guy had a pocket knife in his hand and I realized with a lot of fear "I've been stabbed", I was still thinking that when he stuck me again in the chest, and I could only think "I've been stabbed again", I don't know if it was training taking over from the subconscious level or fight-or-flight kicking in but when he pulled the knife back to himself my hands followed his, grabbed him by the sleeve and spun him to the ground where I stomped on him way past him becoming unresponsive and people had to tackle me off him, I didn't realize it while it was happening but he stabbed me twice more in the calve while he was on the ground. None of the wounds needed more than a few stitches but I lost a LOT of blood. I mentioned training, I'd been boxing since I was little and had two years of krav maga at that time. The scariest and I think most important part of the story is, I know for a fact that I came very very close to freezing when I realized I'd been stabbed, I did freeze for a moment and I'll never know if I could have defended from it but I was frozen when I was stabbed in the chest, and it's a miracle I started reacting when I did. It's way too ****ing easy to become mentally fixed on "I just got stabbed", and that fixation can keep you from reacting while you get stabbed again and again..

    Remember this : The loser dies on the street, the winner dies in the ambulances. Well unless both people aren't armed.
    This video shows a particular case, where an expert in knife defense tries to defend themselves again't a knife attacker, and knows said person is going to attack. None of those two facts would be true on the streets. The best way out is to run away. Unless you have a weapon of your own, you can't fight back, and even then, it is extremely dangerous, so avoid fighting as much as you can.

    I've done dagger training in HEMA for a few years.

It's basically just a match to see who dies first because I guarantee you you're both getting injured in the process. Whats even more difficult about knives is that virtually anyone can use them to a degree of success. They're such a simple, effective tool (any tool that literally remains in use for the entire scope of human history would have to be) that takes little more know how than picking one up and thrusting. Don't get in knife fights kids. Even with training you're GOING to get hurt.

    My martial arts instructor is a 6th degree black belt in karate. That’s not 30 years of experience, but it’s enough that his words are worth passing on here.
    “If a person pulls a knife on you, run. There is no reason for you to ever believe you can walk out of a knife fight without getting cut in some kind of way.”
    He said he once went to a knife defense seminar and they used a black sharpie in place of a knife and asked him to defend himself as best as he could for 10 seconds. Here’s what he had to say about the end of those ten seconds:
    “I was ‘cut up’ everywhere. If that was a real knife I wouldn’t have been able to protect myself against anything past the first two cuts, but even still I had sharpie marks on my arms, my stomach, my chest, and even some on my neck. This is real life. Not a movie. Don’t be a hero. Don’t try to fight somebody with a knife. Run away.”

      @@daesungkim1478 As Petrov said, officers have tools for the job to deal with the situation. Taser isn't amazing option, but the shock might be able to incapacitate them for an arrest. Pepper spray can blind, and force submission with pain, but bad choice. Better than none. Firearm, best choice you can get. Good shot placement, can end the fight. Simply having it drawn might make them disengage and run, which accomplishes what you set out to do. Protect first. Problem with guns, you have to draw them, similar to knives, and they are distance based tools. Closer you get, harder to use. Right up close, a gun is difficult to use. Especially in knife range, drawing it and putting shots where you need to may be borderline impossible if they have a hand on your gun or on your arm, or somewhere that may throw your shot off.
      If there is someone you have to protect, you need to consider your options carefully, and also choose what makes sense to carry for protection. Some places in some countries don't allow firearms despite them being the best tools for defense there is, so in those places you need to pick carefully what you feel is the best option for your defense if running is not an option. Pepper spray and tasers are the most common options, neither are perfect. Both have glaring issues. It's a bad scenario, but one you might have no choice in the matter of.

      A marker leaves marks wherever it touches, but a knife, even though grandma could stick a knife right through your leg like jelly, requires some force to leave a cut or stab. that means if you block a knife strike with your arm its possible that the tip of the knife will touch you but wont hurt you, also its a lot harder to hurt someone with a dull knife, but you should always assume the knife the attacker has is razor sharp.

    Some important information from experience: I've had a gun pulled on me once and a knife pulled on me twice. The occasion with the gun was a robbery in East New York, Brooklyn (yeah I was asking for it), and I could not run, so I just coughed up the dough and they walked away. I gave them 400 dollars and they even gave me my license back! So the lesson from that experience; I gave them what they wanted and I kept my life. But each time I was attacked with a knife I ran as soon as I saw it without looking back. One of time times I was lucky to be near my motorcycle in Bangkok, Thailand with a dude running at me from behind, and I was able to hop on and speed the hell out of there before getting jabbed. The second time I was in Highland Park, Los Angeles and was not chased when I ran, but I also think the time I was chased was not simply a failed attempt but the dude hesitated (he had second thoughts!) The bottom line; if you run, you likely won't get chased because you give that person a chance to have second thoughts about slaughtering you, and they realize that slicing you up into salami is probably going to ruin their lives. So my advice, in sum, is 1. Stay out of bad neighborhoods or places you're unfamiliar with. 2. Don't fuck another dude's girl. 3. Stay away from hookers (seems random but trust me). 4. If you see a knife, just run. 5. If you can't run, offer to give them something. 6. If you're already getting stabbed then do what this video shows but that's a last resort! Bonus advice; don't piss people off, be loyal, cultivate yourself/integrity, and just be a good person! People generally don't want to stab good people!

    Other ex-army people have commented about this here, but I'll add my two cents as well. My army instructor said you are probably going to get cut in a knife fight no matter how skilled you are. The real trick is positioning yourself so that any strikes are deflected to non-lethal areas until you take down the opponent or flee.
    The best defense overall, as always, is maintaining situational awareness so you can see a dangerous situation developing and figure out a strategy to avoid or minimize the threat before it fully blossoms. Fights rarely actually happen by surprise. Unfortunately, most people go around nowadays in a smartphone-induced haze where they don't notice anything happening around them until it's too late.

    Glad to see so many folks in the comments section actually giving good advice and understanding how nearly impossible it is to defend against a knife attack if its already happening. Sometimes street knowledge is accurate. Best defense is being mindful and doing everything you can to avoid these situations, and if the person is relatively close, run from a knife attack vs. try to smother, wrap, disarm if its a gun. I will say, however, that the depiction above is accurate in one way that you often don't see portrayed. When defending a knife attack (if it's come to that) then your target is not the knife or the hand/wrist. Your target is the upper foream, elbow, upper arm.

      Fact, more people in any given day survive knife attacks than die to knife attacks. And in all cases of comparison between hospitalizations from knife attacks and gunshot wounds, people who were attacked with a knife were more likely to survive. I say this because I see a lot of retards fearmonger people about gun control saying people would just use knives like it's comparable. Well, it is, but not in the way they think.

      Yeah, true. But also if they carry a longer blade you want to get close if you have no choice, since it will be harder to generate force. Additionally, stabs and slices will be more difficult short range with a longer weapon aswell. Other than that, you want to use objects and the environment to your advantage. Running aswell.

This happen to me on a close street nearby the downtown. It was The kind of guy who was already mad idk why when i ran into him in a street . I was myself in a bad mood. He walked next to me and and i didn’t like his looks but ok. Then he did some shadow kick in front of me for no reason wtf. Triggered I stopped and said quietly: « is there a problem bro? » and he say: « no none better for u ». I smiled « u funny u know ». And then he push me right away. I did judo for 7 years i grab him(i was close) fast and make an o Goshi(judo grip) put him down. Then i got up him to very mad and pulled out kind of a standard kitchen knife. With adrenaline i got all ready and move back immediately and then run . But he got faster so i zigzag a little bit and i took my bag and startin to do up and down moves with the bag then he charge a so i charge( i know wasn’t a clever move but i was full adrenaline and kinda scared). And i put the bag in his face but like a punch in an agressive way it makes him drop the knife . He almost fall. I gave a huge kick on the knife. He was still touching his nose and eyes. Then i let him and run away straight to the downtown. I know this afternoon i was very lucky. It could have been a lot worst. So yeah u better run away immediately when u face a guy with an edged weapon. This kind of things happens so fast u can’t manage a guy with a knife with bare hands. Odds are at 99% u playin with ur near death if u face it. 1% of chance and some adrenaline reaction stuffs.

    A friend was in the knife attack, did not see it coming, got stabbed. First he did not realize what happened, then got extremely angry thinking if he is to die, he would take the m*f* with him. Apparently in life-death situations people get monstrous power boost, also called hysterical strength, and can take down much stronger attackers. Who knew? When he finally fainted from rapid blood loss, the attacker was critical. Friend is no martial artist, no athlete, middle age, slightly overweight, but doctor told him fat protected his organs, and he was quickly released from hospital to home care, no charges pressed. Attacker spend long time in ICU, several restorative procedures, some permanent damages, and still got no sympathy from the judge, deadly assault, lengthy prison sentence.

    After training BJJ for 10 years (MMA included) I did some knife defense class for the fun and I discovered something while fighting someone with zero combat experience, if they had the knife I had a 50% chance of not getting cut in sparring. (I was a purple belt at the time. 5 years ago) but if I had the knife they were 100% dead. It felt like the knife gave them a whole belt color. So no combat felt like a blue belt and the purple belts felt like brown belts and so on.
