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.
