 Hey, what's up, it's the Wing Chun Kid. Today we're gonna talk about some butterfly knife techniques. Okay, with Wing Chun, we have the Bat Sam Do, or the eight slash technique, and they use these cool butterfly knives. All right, so we're gonna show you a few techniques for these butterfly knives. Here we go. Hey, what's up? So we're gonna show you your first basic Wing Chun, parry and strike, it's called in the Bat Sam Do form. All right, here. Okay, so parry and strike. What I'm doing is just parrying on my left hand like this. Make sure that this is on the side of your body so that nothing gets in the inside, it's on the outside, if it comes this way, and at the same time, I'm just gonna do a forward slash. Notice that this slash is not a slash like that, it actually goes out in a curve. Like this, the right straight line, this point goes directly out. Okay, so if it's coming this way, first of all, I need to move out of the way. I'm not gonna stay in the same spot. If I stay in the same spot, and just do this, if he's really has a stiff attack, it's still gonna hit me because my swords are not heavy enough to redirect it. So first of all, I need to be able to get out of the way by stepping off to the side, okay? Again, either to the left or to the right, okay? Now when I'm stepping off to the side, make sure I'm just stepping off into a triangle. I have to make sure that I step in on a triangle so that I can reach him. Because if I don't step in, if I just step sideways, directly sideways, I can't reach him with my attack. So I have to make sure that I carry and step in on a triangle so that I'm here. All right, some people think that those fancy weapons are not useful in the street, but in Batsam though, actually it's quite useful in the weapon, okay? As you can see, if it's knife against knife, you have a weapon, he's got a weapon. You wanna put this out in front so that you can meet his weapon, all right? Okay, step on the sign, same idea, and go for the forearm, okay? You don't wanna go for a knife because this is too small of a target. Just go for an entire forearm and get cut something, right? At the same time, you got a punch here. Okay, so same as at Batsam though, instead of having a stab, you're just using this as a punch, okay, one more time. So step on the sign, boom, punch here, okay? By the time he cuts his hands off, this knife is gonna come off, right? And then now you have much better position for any kind of attack, okay? So that's how you can use Batsam though, this technique in a fighting situation. All right, here's the second technique. It goes like this, parry and slash in the Batsam though form, okay? Okay, so what I'm doing is, first of all, starting this with position, we're doing the guan sao and then slash. Guan sao, this comes up, slash. You can also go guan sao and just slash underneath, or you can go guan sao, bring this up over top, slash out, okay? So I'll show you again, okay? So once again, like the other one, I have to make sure I get out of the way, either to the right or to the left, okay? Because this might not be powerful enough to stop it, see, oh, I still get stabbed, okay? So what this is, is just a deflection to make it go down slightly, and then this comes out, slash to the throat, okay? Or if I go here, and slash to the knee also, okay? If I go the other direction, right? Same thing, slash this way, right? All right, so that's the second technique. All right, here's the defense useful in a street defense situation with knives. Batsam though is actually quite useful in street self-defense situation, okay? So as you can see, I'm using the same movement with the knives, but now I'm just using a regular knife, wooden knife. It comes in, I parry. If I got a double edges knife, I can peel it off this way, okay? I like to use this one to trap this one, and then if I don't wanna kill the guy, I just use the butt of the handle of my knife, right in the temple and the eye, okay? If this is a serious situation and you really wanna kill the guy, don't do it, okay? You can use the knife, right? But just use the butt of the knife, boom. Okay? Or even if you don't have a knife, if you don't have a knife, you can use the same thing, okay? Here it comes, right? You're stabbing. First of all, get out of the way, okay? Boom, boom, same idea, okay? So most importantly, you gotta get out of the way, right? Don't stay in the same place because that knife attack will come fast and furious. And if you can't block it with your knife, fast enough, you're gonna get stabbed. So first of all, get out of the way, do some kind of technique, control the knife holding arm and just attack back. Okay, are you ready? We're gonna combine both of those movements from Bajang Do in this attack, okay? So boom, boom, see that, okay? So, same thing. First movement is this one. He blocks it. I'm gonna switch to the second one, okay? So I'm doing this. He blocked this one. So I'm gonna switch to the second one, okay? One more time, get out of the way, block this one. This is checking here, this is slashing here. All right, so I hope you had fun with this video and hope that you can train with this weapon technique and use it in self defense. Hey, thanks for watching my Wing Chun Butterfly Knife video. Thanks to my friend, Karagin Singh, far from the east, coming here to help me train with this technique. And just be careful, we're using metal knives here, but we don't recommend training with metal knives unless you have a lot of practice. You can start training with just plastic knives or just cardboard wrapped up with duct tape or wooden knives, okay? So just be careful when you train.
