This is Jiu Jitsu.  I like how you are teaching it. It isn't commercialised and pays attention to technique. Not quite what i saw with Brazilian thingimag. You routines - brilliant. Nice Job!

The 'bobbies' in Bradford (UK) trained some with us but exposure was limited to kattas and escaping grabs.

[wtfdudenotcool101]

I always wonder how true to life these types of videos are.

Did the aggressor in this video have a very tight grip? It would seem like that wouldn't make the guy drop his knife if he had a tight enough grip.

These demo's always seem like they are only good in theory and not in practice.

[ne014x]

If that would of been a real knife on the first technique all your going to do is give your self a criciodotomy

[666brokenhearts]

but if the goy with the knife hve commando ? u r dead

[jiminycricket555]

hey mate, thanks for the tactical tip. random question though i was wondering what you guys call those little bracelet type things you have on your wrist? some of the guys i work with make them out of hutchie cord when we're out field and i know theyre popular with the special forces in my country. cheers

[thegamerstud]

@jiminycricket555 I believe in America we call them balance bracelets

Knife vs. empty hand is always a risky proposition. I have been taught that first disarm; if you do it wrong, you end up slicing your own neck. Instead of going for the disarm, I rather get to the outside of the knife arm, and go on the offensive; move your head back, slap the knife down while moving to the outside, elbow the head, knee the outside of the thigh push him down and either run or produce a weapon of your own. Not saying it's better, but it might be easier to pull off under stress

[DriftwoodAndCorpses]

liked the first one--slap from two sides. not convinced of the second and the level of compliance it'd take to pull it off. you can tell you can handle yourself though, like your stuff

[TACTICALAIRSOFTdevon]

if you had that happen to you at high school. were you as good at unarmed combat as you are now? and did you phone the cops or something.

[ThePopeAndy]

Amazing tip guys loved this one! Would be one hell of a commitment to try this but could save someones life.

[notzayne]

I learned this while in a Tae-Kwon-Do class when i was about 11 or 12 before I had to quit because of medical problems. I learned this one but forgot it. I am so glad you came along with one. I love it!

[Valkiraun]

knives are a very dangerous weapon no matter how good you are on the other side.

true fact, but if you have a gun, then the tables are turned :D

[CrotalusKid1]

@Valkiraun true, but if they guy with the blade has any training, you wont have time to take your weapon from you holster before hes on you and cutting you into steaks

[christo0187]

Me and my buddy are having this childish argument over un-armed combat. My opinion is that depending on the soldier and the training he has received he could jump into the ufc octogan and win. Also if the soldier was skilled enough he could go toe to toe with a person like GSP or Silva and possibly even win. Im just wondering what peoples opinion is on this issue or even the staff at OPSGEAR since they seem to know their stuff.

[KuRaI8107]

i tried the first one and tried it to my brother, got it out of hs hands. thean he knew what i was doing caz he sae this too. he started freaken out saying that he wasstnt holding it right and shit. i said hold it like a freaken knife u doufus, u saw it too.

hes still frwaken out and hes wat older than me.....

[Snapshot290]

What you guys dont mention is the safty, always give them what they want if all they want is money. If they want more than just your money, thats when you risk these disarming moves.

[operationsmedia]

@Snapshot290 Thank you and we totally agree. We have mentioned that in several tips. If you go through and watch more of the TACTICAL TIPS you will see that Jager mentions that a lot. Good point though...we just don't put it in every single tip.

[NewZealfighter]

Interesting he uses the word "dairy" which is the perferred word in English countries as oppose to Convence store of corner store as in America

[tredub91]

that was so funny!!! He just smacks the knife down!!!

[AgentMcgeek]

I'd like to think i would instantly decide: grab the hand and twist or back off, fast.

Greetings from London, I like what you do!

[TaylorBechtol]

Interesting and very helpful tip thanx =)

[MajorMiya]

I did a lot of knife training and after seeing what damages a knife really can do, even in the hands of the untrained, I would just give my wallet over....Don't mess with a knife.
