Close knife training : How to react?

[chablehh]

@darkscope2 and the Philippines, Japan, France, England, South America, Africa, China, and i think Russia....No offense but Canada just sucks lol

[TheAikidoBush]

Loving how this is pretty much the only real deal, "XTremeStreetDefense", it's actually Extreme, normally you get them names and it's like o_O "I've never seen that before!"

"Yeah, it's because it wont work." So, good job :D. x

[darkscope2]

@TheAikidoBush dude i live in canada, there is no self-defense act... our laws are fucked. my uncle is doing time for pulling a self defense move similar to this. you can really only do this in the usa

[TheAikidoBush]

To gain better grip,

do chinups/pullups, grippers, or train in Aikido for a few months for good wrist control. Good video, keep them up! :) x

[darkscope2]

lol if i used that last move on an attacker id go to prison, even if it was in self-defense

[TheAikidoBush]

@darkscope2

It's under an act of self-defense, so you wouldn't go to prison, depends on the law of the country. Which is why it's good to study the law before you practice these techniques.

Man, with this technique, you gonna see blood all the way...

[BbyLambx3]

@kleinesap maybe, or it could make them even more angrier and put you into more shit. since not everyone will worry about pain and in a situation where you have a knife, getting hit would just send an adrenalin rush through your body, making you grip the knife even more. once again, your method of thinking would only work if ur strong or u hit them perfect spot. other then that your screwed again

[petdog12]

wouldn't you have to be careful not to get your hands to close to the knife just in case he thinks/knows your going to try and fight back?

[BbyLambx3]

it seems this counter is very useless for someone who isn't very strong. since turning someones wrist can be easy if they're caught off guard, however if ur not strong enough to turn them into the point of pain your pretty much fucked.

[kleinesap]

@BbyLambx3 use your other arm and put an elbow into his face meanwhile hold on to the knife with the other hand and while he´s concerned with the effect of your elbow or punch maybe take the knife from him. pain is a great distractor

[r3n5m1ch3al]

Sorry man, but if the knife is very close and adherent to the throat, this technique doesn't work: you will cut your throat with your reaction.

[nickiz1]

good..

[ahmad434]

very effective

thanx

[Kelo60]

Heres a better plan. Give them your shit and don't fight back unless you 100% think they are going to attack you. Most of the time it's just some tweaker looking for money for drugs who do stuff like this. So.... It's really not worth risking your life to save some money and prob a phone.

[carbonlaminate]

@Kelo60 do you always have that option? Can you say this would be the scenario 100% of the time?

[mojonm]

good stuff , it's very important that the attacker gets confused, But I would like to know how to deffend yourself from sewing machine attack or prison shank attack .....................weres your deffense than?

[yararu]

@mojonm Nice. Fucking classy. "Weres your deffense than?" You gotta watch your ass in that case.

[Timisso1337]

wow, perfect. Not even a fair fight, just the way I like it.

[diediekiller]

Try this while he has the knife so close to you and you're fucking dead.

[largeweedbag]

thats y usually i just offer head... WAHT!

[GERALD32180]

wow! nice speed..

[marymo75]

find the nearest exit and get your ass out of there

[Telkuad]

very good

[ponyryda]

Most skilled knife fighters and martial artists don't go out robbing people and commiting crimes so most of the time you are dealing with untrained criminals who just use force and aggression.

[Cougs08]

Forget this video. Just pull out your gun and shoot them.

Duh.

[MonsterCutter]

@Cougs08 No chance to pull out the gun, if the knife is that distance (and even in distance less than ~5 meters).

[Cougs08]

@MonsterCutter Sarcasm. Thanks.

[Christmas800]

wow. this will kill the attacker

[sabotoged]

potentially

[DrTchoky]

sorry honey, this is nothing.

[u140550]

that's hella true bad exsample but i'm addin him

[CottonBoxer]

knife self defense is very subjective .

it really depends on the situation & the skill of your attacker. a dude that already has planned to cut you is obviously the most dangerous.

the talk ur way out & engage them strategies only work with num skulls not true hardcore knife fighters .

if a knife fighter has the knife up to your throat , as soon as u try to move/blink he will cut you plain and simple or at least try too.

i had a little training from Arsenio J. Advincula btw.

[GamerX7800X]

kotegaeshi:p

[acroboyargentina]

thinking the same

[aaronfromhastings]

I have had a knife pulled on me three times. The first time (1) I complied, apologised etc. and was unharmed. The second time (2) I just ran. Luckily I had already partly disabled my attacker. The third time (3) I backed away slowly, telling the guy very aggressively that if he came any closer, he could have a taste of what I was holding in my pocket. I had nothing in my pocket. All these strategies worked. My favourite is 2, followed by 3, then 1.

You must be open to all ways.

[Kobra2006]

lol

[aaronfromhastings]

Front kick them away, then pick up something heavy like a chair and start swinging it or throwing it at them like a mad thing and screaming at them to f. o.

[Panpiper]

Do NOT try to kick a knife from someone's hands. I've never met anyone who could kick as well as I could and 'I' cannot kick a knife out of the hand of someone who is not compliant.

However the advice of picking up a large object as a weapon of your own is sound, if you have the range and the time.

[aaronfromhastings]

I meant a straight front stamping kick to the body to create distance and possibly topple the attacker. In the vid there is enough room for that.

But re the crescent kick - which I think you mean - do you remember that old guy in one of the Bruce Lee docu videos who kicked a gun away? Must have used a crescent kick. He went to give chase and found he couldn't run. He had been shot in the foot! It put me completely off the idea of using a crescent kick on a knife, even with boots on.

[Panpiper]

Ah, ok. If you have distance between you and your knife armed attacker, by all means keep the distance if you can also arm yourself with something bigger than your opponent. From my own training however, if one does not have the range and the option of a large improvised weapon, often the best tactic is to do the exact opposite. Jam your opponent, control their weapon arm and do whatever you can from that range to neutralize them.

[Kobra2006]

it's very (by all respect) totally foolish from you to tell here RANDOM people to defend themselves in such a moment instead of doing what the robber with the WEAPON wants.

i recommend to not do such a foolish thing when you face such a moment because this movement needs alot of practise!

the risk your attack can fail is way too high and too risky to fail.

in my opinion this is the reason why so many people get stabed, couse they dont want to give the crackheads the money who really need it.

[superbadlucre]

Why would YOUR recommendations/opinions be any more valid than his?

[Kobra2006]

you just need common sense to get this, unfortunatly not everybody has it.
