Defense against knife

[Bigshadow]

That is an interesting story Don. I guess as is all too familiar, whether to comply, fight, or flight is dependent upon the situation at that moment and there is no canned answer as to how to deal with it on a discussion board like this. But definitely a great discussion.

"The only way to defend against a knife is with a knife or a BIGGER knife"
My dojo gets these guys once a month who teach us Piper style or Cape flats knife fighting. Was developed right here in Cape Town, South Africas prisons. http://www.pipersystem.com/
The speed which these guys move at is INSANE. There is no option of fighting back unarmed (no matter what your art is). Even with a knife your chances are slim.
Will see if I can get a clip up on these guys practising.
