@elchacal31 Straight stab certainly has a defence, but the best way to train this is live fast real time with contact, if you look at the live knife attack drills on our Krav Maga Thailand channel you will see how it may work against multiple stabs with retraction of the knife. I say "may work" because there is no guarantees of knife defense working 100% of the time. The goals are 1. minimize injury to ourselves 2. escape. I have used this defence successfully on broken bottle attacks real life.
Okay but can you explain a defense where the knife fighter is trained, and his hand won't travel back?
What if he just jabs with a knife?
