What is EDC folding knives for?

[Wing Woo Gar37]

You really wouldn’t understand neuroscience. Let’s stick to knives…

That’s a cutting remark.

You're quite adept at applying the, ah, scalpel, of logic then?

Hey! that’s on the edge.

Bravo! I don’t doubt your credentials in your field. Kudos to your academic achievements. I do not intend to disparage my academic betters. I possess no such certifications. Though I doubt the relevancy pertinent to the current discussion.

I lost interest on all these comments, Read my first 2 posts of this thread, just common sense.

Honestly, how silly is this? Ok, your version of stabby stab is better than my stabby stab because I practice CMA. Wrestler boogie man UFC champion or BJJ black belt ninja is waiting to kill me when I buy gas. I should be afraid because I’m not afraid. You know because you invented nice guitar pickups and spyderco is trash. Is this pretty close?

I practice on my heavy bag with a blunt knife with rubber boot at the tip.

As many people have pointed out many many times, this is really not at all like stabbing something alive.

Please don’t lock it. It’s very entertaining and I promise to play nice.

I think maybe you might like a look into Ed Calderon. Don’t take my word for it. This guy knows a thing about stabbing people. If in fact, that is your interest.

You people really have no idea of thrusting with knife. Read this. Click the numbers and you get the links to explain in more detail.

AI Overview




Thrusting with a knife carries a severe risk of your hand slipping forward onto its own blade, a leading cause of profound, unintentional self-inflicted hand injuries. When a knife point impacts a dense or resistant surface, the sudden deceleration forces your gripping hand forward due to kinetic momentum. If the knife lacks structural safeguards, the fingers telescope directly over the sharp edge. [1, 2, 3]

Mechanics of the Injury

• Sudden Deceleration: Impacting bone, thick clothing, wood, or dense material stops the blade instantly while your hand keeps moving.
• Friction Failure: Sweat, blood, water, or oil completely destroys the friction needed to hold a smooth or handle-only grip.
• Severe Laceration Pattern: The resulting injuries typically manifest as deep, transverse cuts across the flexor sides of the fingers. [1, 2, 3, 4]

Medical Consequences

• Tendon Severance: The flexor tendons controlling your fingers frequently snap or cut completely, curling back into the hand and requiring emergency microscopic surgery. [1, 2]
• Nerve and Vascular Damage: Deep cuts often sever the digital nerves and blood vessels, leading to permanent numbness, limited mobility, or severe bleeding. [1, 2]
• Permanent Disability: Loss of fine motor skills, reduced grip strength, and permanent scarring are common outcomes. [1, 2, 3]

Factors That Increase the Risk

• Lack of a Guard: Knives without a physical crossguard, quillion, or deep finger choil offer zero mechanical resistance to stop a slipping hand. [1, 2, 3]
• Folding Knives: Non-locking or poorly locking folding knives can collapse entirely onto the user's fingers during a thrust.
• Dull Blades: A dull point requires significantly more driving force to pierce a target, exponentially increasing the kinetic energy that forces the hand forward if it slips. [1]
• Improper Grips: Placing a thumb along the spine or using an un-wrapped finger grip provides weak structural integrity against sudden impacts. [1, 2]

Here is another article talking about danger of cutting your own hand if the knife do not have protection:

Where have you guys been. Took me a few minutes to find all these.

The best length of a knife is when you hold it with reverse hold, the tip of your knife can reach to your elbow joint. This way, you can hide your knife behind your forearm.

"William E. Fairbairn—often misspelled as Fabian—and Eric A. Sykes developed a lethal, practical knife-fighting system based on their experiences in the Shanghai Municipal Police (SMP) in the 1930s. They designed the iconic Fairbairn-Sykes (F-S) Commando Dagger for World War II elite forces."

Your video shows the advantage of the "reverse hold".

Don't change the subject. You people don't know about thrusting? I have to pull out articles to prove what I said from the beginning that IT IS IMPORTANT TO HAVE KNIVES TO HAVE GUARD TO PREVENT THE BLADE SHOVING INTO YOUR HAND WHEN THRUSTING?

YOU PEOPLE ATTACK ME ABOUT SIMPLE COMMON SENSE PRECAUTION? SAYING I DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING? THIS IS A SITE OF SELF DEFENSE?

READ POST #149 AND #150 AGAIN.

This is FACTS and SCIENCE, looking at things objectively. ADMIT YOU ARE WRONG AND LEARN.

YOU GUYS EVEN READ ONLINE? THIS IS SO IMPORTANT, THINGS CHANGE EVERYDAY. YOU CANNOT LIVE IN YOUR OWN LITTLE STUPID BUBBLE.

Agree with you on this. This is why the ancient people invent this.

It's a tradeoff. It will tie to your hand when you need it. It will not release from you hand when you don't need it.

Question is why people today don't comprehend this. They even question this. Is this how IGNORANT the MA community is?

Discussion and sharing can be fun. Arguing is not. To raise blood pressure is not good for health. Old saying said, "If you can't find anybody who disagree with you, you are nobody". To have somebody arguing with you is better than nobody responds to your thread.
