Night!
Hey Jeff! How was your evening? Anything new?
Coming up to speed, slowly, but, steadily.
Slow is better than not moving at all!
Fight the Power!
Had a terrific two and half hour class with Kenpo tonight. We were practicing some Lance (knife) techniques.... ummm. Interesting, but I still have some thoughts in my mind wondering how workable they would be. I got my "fingers cut" nearly a dozen times, so there has to be a better way...
Maybe more practice is in order to make them workable.
Well, as I look, we're all red or green. So, I guess it's too late to do that JR. We've been assimilated into the collective. Resistance is futile!
:shooter:
Alright. I'll shut up and go back to reading.
Effective knife defence = Firearm, Bigger Knife, Club + distance and warning and decent environmental conditions...
Any unarmed defence against the knife is goint to suck. At least now you might have a fighting chance that you otherwise would not have.
Sounds like a good class!
It is but the Lance techniques in EPAK are almost stupid. I've never actually done them but I've seen them performed and I was shocked. A FMA guro or AMOK knifefighter can teach a person simpler and more effective defenses.
Perhaps. Suggesting that they don't work to my current instructor would be almost sacrilegious. I suppose I could train how they do this, then cross train elsewhere for better knife techniques.

Agreed. Knowing something is better than knowing nothing when going up empty handed against a knife fighter. In this situation, I'd expect to get some cuts. Hopefully none of the cuts would be limb-threatening, or at worse, fatal.
Good class anyway, yes. Just feeling a bit pessimistic with the possible prospects out on the street.
