This clip is only trying to show the basic Hapkido Knife defence techniques, without full speed of attack. Have you ever been in the situation that someone try to stab you? I guess you haven't. There might be two kinds of opponents. one - tries to slash as you said (this is probably the attacker did not want to kill you but scare you. the other one - tries to stab you straight away to kill. Thank you for your comment.
Yes, the argument is that nobody in their right mind is going to thrust at an opponent; all they have to do is slash and catch an arm a couple of times then the person will be in shock. So, looking at this just pray your opponent in real lifte is a first class stooge.

Hapkido has a weak knife defense. I took it for years. It's problematic.

@daemansung Thank you for telling me.
I found it annoying at first but after watching all of your videos a few times it has grown on me.
