Knife Defense

When facing a person with a knife, it’s to be treated lightly but taken seriously. Here is why:
“Don’t concentrate on the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory.” If you only concentrate on his weapon and get threatened by it, automatically you will lose. You must not just focus on the knife, otherwise you will not to able to execute your techniques by targeting other areas. The knife is only an image, destroy the image, and you will win.
The threat is always either to the front, side, or back and can be treated lightly, unless the person has full control of one of your hands or you have been pinned against the wall - then it’s treated very seriously. The first thing you can do is run and leave him standing there. This is using

“The Art of Fighting Without Fighting."
If you’re very confident, you can strip the weapon out of his hand before he can blink an eye. In practice, you should always use plastic or wooden knives to prevent any accidents. I know a lot of people like to use live weapons, but I don’t recommend it. If you are ever in a real life situation, then you apply the same techniques you have practiced to the real weapon. All these techniques I will demonstrate are very effective and will work every time if practiced and applied correctly. Remember, you must strip the weapon every time, and always push the knife away from your body not into it.
