@franckbenand I can always learn to smile more often, but when you're on your own it's not always the first thing you think about :) Still learning... all the best..
@ransuru Thanks for the feed back.. I wasn't really sure what I was going to do before I started experimenting and I agree what you say about starting the movement elsewhere and yes I see the draws were quite apparent, but I think I was also trying to show that knife work is more than knife fighting and someone pulling a knife from nowhere is quite scary.. Thanks Steve
Perhaps Start the draw by moving something other than the hand first and it will spread your awareness and tension more evenly in the body and the movement will be less apparent mate.

Great overall work.
There are some very good applications of the jacket (especially at 1min10).
I agree with the opinion of @ransuru on the diffusion of tensions accompanying the movement.
One last thing, do not forget to smile, it completely changes what will be perceived by us, viewers, or by your target.
We always forget the smile.
