I know Moni is a legend, but with all due respect this is not a viable defense against a knife attack because there are too many fine movements involved. Grabbing a knife as it whizzes by you/at you at 30 or 40 MPH is not a safe tactic, specially for the novice fighter. A deflection combined with a palm strike to the chin is simpler and more effective as it may even cause a knockout. The thing is that you must be moving towards your opponent where most people would try to stay away.

@MDTA538 Yep. I can't say I would recommend this to someone besides a soldier or security guard, who would be used to life-or-death situations (or fights at least). Your average dude who learns this would be freaked out in a real situation and would most likely mess up. Best thing would be to practice this often at home.

you would want to be quick, as real recoil will guarantee a very bad slash. Better have good control of fear and adrenaline.
