Hey Mike thanks for the comment. You disagreeing does not change the facts: if you cannot run away, you need to control the weapon hand. The option is to allow that free hand to move, which is very dangerous. The issue is how you tie up, and how much damage is done from the penetrating continuous knee strikes. We will film a view full speed variations with the no lie blade and then we can assess any damage. Thanks again for that post!

Once you manage to trap the opponents arm like this you can easily apply both your arms on his weapon arm and break it in the elbow surely making him drop the knife, moreover you dont lose your balance when kicking......

@ramusling good comment. Your options definitely open up when the arm id trapped!

but what if im the one with the knife? how do i stop him from blocking it?

[TheFitnessonetrainer]

@AcBh2011 The best attack with a knife to prevent blocking would either utilize the element of surprise or be lead with some type of feinting movement, example a fake stab then slightly withdrawn to draw the blocking arm and then attacking again while the position of defense is disrupted.

i have seen the krav defense against a straight knife attack and they assume you can see it first, which if you do manage to see it, its probably the best knife defense in my opinion, however what if you dont see it ? and you dont have time to move out the way or even block it, its a problem that must be addressed i think, because not all the time people see the knife in time, my defense would be a shield to protect my vitals put both arms infront of your chest like a wall

[TheFitnessonetrainer]

@Brady2k10 You are very smart...and correct. All we can do is plan to defend what we can see, and be alert to hand positioning and body language, as well as distancing. It is of course obvious that you cannot defend what you cannot see, however, you can prepare and train to react to an attack. Thanks for the comments, and we will be posting a few other videos that will help you understand this more. :)

@ramusling i am not trained in any way, but that's what i was thinking, too. hell, if the attacker is gonna go for the lethal option, i wouldn't have too many reservations about breaking a bone or two.

I disagree, if the guy has a knife the last thing I want to do is get entangled with him and hope he drops it. The other disarm methods seem better to me (not the alternate one you demonstrated).

@cyberslick18 "appeasement" can also get you killed.

Damn straight, hit them until they are no longer a threat. I do Krav in Kansas City and we use the same techniques

@Brady2k10 Dude a sneak attack means your screwed anyways. AT least if you can see the attack coming, this is a valid defense.
