I've read that one should expect to be injured during a knife fight. How badly is the part one can control.

Sometimes. Tho they are playing. In real life if you fear death yeah, you make extra sure to take your enemies down as quickly as possible. If you fear man and just fear to fear, you will lose all fights and surely die. Engage any fight as if it is going to be your last day on this Earth. Always take much pride in your soul. Look after yourselves. Be patient. Learn to not fear humans. If you fear death, you will head into any battle fearless. You fear death to overcome your opponents. Even if it means that the possibility of you dying is high probability. You head into that battle regardless. Men fear those men who fear death. A man who has everything to lose is more dangerous a man than a man who fears life. A man who fears life has not a thing to lose & not a thing to gain. A man who fears life is a man who is afraid of everything. Remember this comrade & topple your foes.

You should film some vids with all those "knife defense" gurus & draw some roadmaps all over their idiot skulls

True!

@@ucfj You should film some vids with all those "knife defense" gurus & draw some roadmaps all over their idiot skulls " To be clear, there IS such a thing as knife defense. People are just saying, you can't really expect to get into a knife fight and not be cut at all. You can avoid being cut in vital places. For example a cut on the outside of your forearm, while it will bleed, will probably not cause you to bleed to death. 🙂 (Just like in unarmed self defense: how likely do you think it is that the other guy won't get in a single strike?? How many western boxing matches have you seen where one guy has no bruises and the other guy is knocked out? It happens, but it's rare. The question is, how badly do you get hurt.)

speaking from experience?

@@puerrodios8013 yeah, i'm at heaven now.

@@johnrexmelendres9527 How's it up there?

@@AmlpfanAnimator The management sucks. They said that the son of the CEO can magically make wine out of water but you can't see a single liquor here.

@@johnrexmelendres9527 Oh

Thanks for the appreciation!

Indeed!

And they make terrible weapons. You have no range and defenses besides voiding, the chance of getting hit while attacking is way too high. I'll take a longsword, sabre or arming sword & buckler any day of the week.

@@dunmermage good luck fitting any of those in your pocket, let alone carrying them in public

@@dunmermage bro what are you gonna do? Carry a longsword around in public??

@@dunmermage Lol. On the contrary, knives are some of the best weapons for CQC that are easily concealable. Good luck carrying around your sword and buckler to any public setting without marking yourself off as an obvious target.

Indeed!

Best and most important comment here!! 100% agree!

tama at hindi ka rin naman basta bastang makakagalaw lalo't alom mong marunong din kalaban mo. kaya kung sa surface, parang walang nangyayari sa sparring nila pero sa totoo pareho silang nag-iingat dahil pareho silang marunong sa kutsilyo kaya d ganun kadali na sumugod. hehehehe.

Thanks!

The opponents range has a factor if its close, mid or long range.

Amen.

I teach traditional Italian knife/dagger fencing. Our open sparring looks 95% like this 🙂

@@rupertsedlmayr8491 Nice

Actually, this is fencing! The word just means "people fighting with melee weapons".

@@rupertsedlmayr8491 touche, no pun intended

Nothing works against someone with a knife on body combat... Youll get cut really bad before making any damage on the agressor, that been lucky.

I believe it is Kali/Eskrima.

It's Ok! This is just a controlled spar. No thrusting and no head attacks.

philippines

it's on those other videos 😂😂😂😂

those are only for drills man

Because they both know they are both capable so the are being cautious with their attacks.

ye

Those come after u have been stabbed lol.

Haha

Very true. In other martial arts - like in BJJ, Judo, wrestling, or boxing, a beginner would have virtually no chance against an experienced competitor. No chance at all. An NCAA D1 wrestler would DEMOLISH the average person, with no grappling experience, in seconds. But with knives/machetes/axes, it's different because you don't need as much skill. The blade does all the damage, and all one needs to do, to cause damage, is to hack, stab, or slice. It doesn't take much at all. No special skills are needed. No technical mastery is needed. Just basic, gross motor movement to stab, chop, or slice - almost anyone can do those things. Even small children.

@@user-sg8kq7ii3y agreed the motor skills used in knife attacks are built into our DNA that's why statistically most knife attacks are stabbing in an ice pick grip. Also almost no knife attack victims were in a "fight" they were stabbed before they knew there was even a threat. A lot of people are not even aware they have been stabbed until the attack is over.

This is what we exactly were doing...

Easier said than done at full speed

Ive seen real knife fights on gore sites and if you reach your hands get disabled. These guys knows what they are doing. They are targetting hands. In gore videos whoever loses limbs tends to just bleedout first or just get rushed when he loses the ability to hold knife. (Then beheading or neck slicing happens) There is an isis video teaching knife targets on a real human and the subject went unconcious not long after a major artery is cut. Knives are nasty and brutal

Non knife hand protects the neck and torso , if possible, wrap a T shirt around it for some added layers of protection

But it’s exactly what real knife fights looks like.

You are the whole circus hahaha

Try it yourself. But for better learning effect, use real knife.
