Nice list. Just a few counters to add from Modern Arnis.

Largo range (striking the hand)
Doblete
Doblada

Media range
Doblada
Hirada Batangeno (rising blocks with tapi hand parrying in a palis fashion)

Outside of Modern Arnis there are ofcourse other options.

Do you have any empty hand responses? Or what would you do if armed with a knife but not a stick?

What would you use as an empty hand response to a #1 attack? How would you respond if you were armed with a knife instead of a stick?

This is one of the great things about Arnis...with some slight modifications, the stick disarms can be translated into empty hand disarms. The same can be said if you're holding a blade. Its just a shorter version of a stick.:)
