Knife Self-Defence

[Wing Woo Gar]

Yeah, pointy sticks are very hard to understand.

Et tu Brute?

Well I agree with the awareness, perception and a bit of luck ideas and yes, control is everything with an added concern, you have to destroy the assailant either by beating, breaking or worse. If someone is trying to kill you, you are left with very little choice.

Learn one handed combinations.

Yes. At 16:52 of the OP video, Paulo advises to get a Russian tie (2 on 1). At 3:08 of the following video, Trav offers Paulo (aka GN) and Funker Tactical $10,000, if they can put him in a Russian tie 1 time out of 300 normal intensity knife attacks (100/slash, overhand stab, underhand stab).

Travis likes the flow drill below. Travis hooks over the top of a knife attack with one hand, further clears the arm then with the other hand throws the counter cross.

In this video, I respond very directly to Funker Tactical's straw-man argument, and issue a friendly challenge of my own. Will he [Paulo] respond? Not sure... you should ask him...

Paulo can't catch any knife attacks in a "Russian tie." Paulo has not accepted the challenge, although he said he would...

Sticks? Did you watch the video? Maybe you had a little nap before it got going…
