Great thread, I wish we could all get together with some training knives.

[QUOTE=eXcessiveForce;281134]I'd have to say when we do actual empty hand vs. knife, it never is complex. Mostly trying to maintain distance and hoping for that one great shot to take out the attacker or disarm them.

I once did research on FATAL knife attacks and to my suprise I found that a very high percentage of fatal knife attacks also involved blunt force trauma.
That can be either before, after, or during the knife attack and can be with or without a blunt force weapon. Most of the time the victim was beat with fist after the knife attack.

People like ex Cons who are unskilled with a knife have a brilliant strategy. They want to stab you about 100 times.

That sewing machine theory may not always be true, some criminals prefer a slashing motion such as cutting your throat from ear to ear; most of the time from the rear.
