Going up against a knife fighter when all you have to defend yourself is a pair of fists is a daunting proposition for anyone, no matter how skilled. In order to survive to fight another day, you need the techniques and principles taught by master martial artist Kelly S. Worden in this cutting-edge video production from Paladin Press.
In his one-of-a-kind, in-your-face style, Worden first takes you through the basics by teaching you how to deflect slashing and stabbing attacks on the high line while disrupting your opponent's base with kicks and foot traps on the low line. He then transitions to high-speed attachment techniques that enable you to stick to your attacker so his knife has nowhere to go, putting you in a position to destroy his most vulnerable targets with lightning-fast hand strikes.
In addition to showing defenses against takedown attempts and all-out thrusts with the blade, Worden also goes into redirecting your opponent's attack using simple principles of joint manipulation, sending the knife point toward him rather than into you. This is the first of a three-part video series on dealing with knife combat in today's violent society.

Constructive criticism here, in the end he was within reach of his knife, controlling that weapon should be the first priority, and also never attack an unarmed opponent with a knife ( that's murder ) and unless you can get a fast moving knife users hand this is useless, usually defanging the snake is too risky because if he slips his hand free taking it back really cuts up the arm. I would suggest using a lock on the shoulder to do a type of arm takedown then IMMEDIATELY GET THE KNIFE
