Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forget what you've seen in movies and on television--a knife attack is usually fast, furious, and often fatal.

Folsom alum Don Pentecost's no-nonsense guide cuts through the Hollywood myths and covers valuable information like:*Defending yourself against an attack*Going on the offensive*Training methods to maximize your chances of survivalIf it's true that, as a poet once said, "prison is like high school with knives," then facilities like Folsom are the Ivy League of violence.

Download or read book JKD s Way of the Blade written by Jason Korol and published by . This book was released on 2018-05-23 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every person should carry a small knife and know how to use it for self-defense. It's that simple. That's the major thrust (sorry, pun intended) of JKD's Way of the Blade. You don't have to be a Navy SEAL to know how to correctly utilize a basic knife for your self-defense and this book will show you how. Of course, the overwhelming majority of people, when considering a weapon for self-protection, disregard the pocket knife and figure a gun is the only game in town. They do this for three primary reasons. First, Hollywood bombards us with movies where a knife wound is at best a paper-cut. Remember Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt in Mr. & Mrs. Smith and how, during an epic battle with bad guys, Jolie throws a knife that hits Pitt's character in the leg? He gives her a look and she shrugs and smiles. It's all so funny in the movie - and then he pulls it out as though it's just a hangnail. Then he walks off and continues killing the enemy with nary a limp. Well, that's all nonsense and yet a big reason why so many people think a knife won't work for self-defense. Next is the common myth that you shouldn't bring a knife to a gunfight. That line is nearly ubiquitous in pop-culture and what makes it dangerous is that it sounds so self-evident. Well, it's actually untrue. Sure, a knife wouldn't do you much good if you were landing on Normandy Beach but that's not what you're using your knife for. You're using it in the event of a sudden, violent encounter in a parking garage, a sexual assault and things like that. And in those environments the knife actually has considerable advantages over a gun. Think about it: it's easier to carry than even the smallest sub-compact; it never runs out of ammo; it's multi-directional. Oh, and don't forget, it's virtually impossible to accidentally kill someone with your knife too. Once a gun is fired, the bullet goes where it goes. You have no leadership over what that bullet does. This ought to worry any self-defender. The next mistake the book corrects is the misuse of the blade for civilian use. Bruce Lee's Intercepting Fist method, otherwise known as Jeet Kune Do, was based heavily on fencing concepts. JKD's Way of the Blade, therefore, takes these same simple and true principles and applies them to small knives and tactical folders. Dominant knife methods other than JKD are generally Kali based, which favors a thousand fancy moves and multiple cutting angles. But such complexity is both too dangerous (complex actions break down under stress) and contradictory to most self-defense scenarios. How can you justify cutting a guy 50 times anyway? JKD's Way of the Blade will teach you to avoid complexity and keep you within the confines of proper moral and legal use of your weapon by showing you the same simple principles Lee taught in his empty hand method. For modern self-protection, the small knife is indispensable. JKD's Way of the Blade will teach you everything you need to know to confidently carry and use one. You'll learn the best and only way to hold the blade as well as the integrated footwork and cut that will keep you safe. You won't learn a hundred different techniques you'd never use unless you were applying to Ninja school. Instead, you'll get the single strike at the heart of the entire method. Yes - just one striking technique. That's all you'll need. And you'll learn how to protect the blade from grabs too.In all, it will revolutionize the way you think about self-defense and knife work.

Book excerpt: Knife Training Methods for Self Defense: Learn Basic Techniques Of Knife Training To Save Your Life And Mistakes That Can Take It Away Self defense is a hotly contested topic simply because it can be very hard to know where the boundary of reasonable force lies.

This is why it is essential to know what you are doing when you have a knife and find yourself in a life threatening situation. The book will help you to understand the following fundamentals: Introduction to why you might feel safer carrying a knife and some points to consider.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knife Fighting for Starters: A Complete Guide to Knife Fighting; The Essentials, Great Strategies, Steps and More When at least one person uses a knife in a violent altercation amongst multiple fighters, the term "knife fight" applies. The use of a blade in battle with the hostile aim of killing or incapacitating the other person is what defines a knife fight. The fighters involved can be totally untrained, have learned the technique on their own, or have been trained in a specific school of knife fighting. The application of any bladed weapon is fair game in a knife fight, although there are specific blades-the dagger, for example-that are made for combat. Teaching knife fighting-A knife battle nearly always results in cuts for both parties. I recommend escaping a knife fight if possible. Most importantly, never threaten with a knife. You must be morally and legally justified before using a knife. This great book will teach you everything you need to know about knife fighting and much more.

Download or read book THE KA BAR KNIFE COMBAT MANUAL written by James Loriega and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2020-04-02 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States Marine Corps does not have this manual-or any manual on the combat use of the Ka-Bar knife. This, however, is not because they lack a structured knife combat method for training new recruits, or because the method is in any way secret or classified. They have a structured method, and it's not secret or classified. They just don't teach from a manual! Why? Simply because Marine Combat Instructors have their knife combat method internalized. They can teach it in their sleep, they can use the knife without even waking up-and they want Marine recruits to know this method in the same manner. Not to learn it-to internalize it. To own it! Because they won't have a manual with them when they need this knowledge to save their lives. Learn what they already know!
