abe ALWAYs BE Expecting

control matters the most brazil style combat controls the most and luck. a 62 yr ole women can take a 250 6.5 man in control with eas if trained how to take his back easily

This is excellent instructional design that can be adapted to so many other disciplines. Very impressive.

I like how 99% of people who watched that shit actually believe they can defend themselfs from a knife attack 😂

bro was pissed he blocked that first knife strike with his arm instead of run back. Took the second take to make it personal.

Bro, you just gotta master that no touch chi technique. You need to make your essence too glorious for the blade to pierce 😅

Capt. Sir Richard Francis Burton wrote a book you called "The Book of Swords" you may like. He also did the most pirated translation ever: the English version of the Kamasutra. Also, the Argentinian Tango dance has its origins on a knife duel in which the two men had one of each's hand tied to the other one's while they fight with the knife. Capt. Burton got - and left - a lot of scars over there.

As a woman, this was interesting. I do feel women are more intuitive in sensing potential danger from strange men than most ordinary men will be. And also trust their intuition far more. Sad fact of life is, we simply have to learn this younger and more effectively than men bc statistically, we are in more danger from strange men. I would have crossed the street or otherwise have gotten away before some "off" feeling dude could even approach me to start talking to me, tbh. Let alone get in my personal space and pull a knife.

Best defence for knives is pack a gun

InsyaAllah kita takkan berjumpa penyerang yang expert atau setara dengan kita kerana semua orang yang expert atau mahir menggunakan pisau tidak akan sesekali begitu mudah menyerang kita..

What about follow-up strikes? There could have been like a dozen of injuries if there was a coherent and normal follow-up stab or even when switching hands...there are videos of martial artists locked up with a knife attackant and basically all of them endede up dying when trying to fight back... all of them.

Seems like guy with the knife always wins...

the 2 on 1 controll is bullshit. with that you focus only on the knife. and you have no defense against what coming next. The second hand, a knee push or a wrestling. You get one hit from that and your defense is broken. After that you get cut in pieces.

I loved the dynamic between you both. Great energy fellas

The title would’ve been a lot better
If he changed [ is too[ it
😂

this was so cool!

Excellent training exercises. Too often people will tend to focus on specific techniques or movements, "do THIS if he stabs in this direction," but the really valuable information is about recognizing that pre-attack body language. Very good!

As a goalkeepr I can confirme. Reflax. Body goes 1st. then the mind is like yea...

Objective pairing looked like such a fun way to do a drill. This was an awesome watch.

Ive seen many knife attacks (15 years in state prison) ive been an attacker and have been stabbed and this dude is the most practical and realistic teacher ive ever seen for self defense! He was spot on with the tells and def knows what he is talking about! I usually watch self defense videos to laugh but i didnt see one thing in this video that wasnt realistic or useless! Subscribed!

At least 200 oh yeah throughout the vídeo 😅

Thanks for tossing some helpful info out there to us, for free no less. Stay safe and alert out there people.

I was thinking, i actually believe his body language and think I'd be worried if he was standing there with a knife. Then they zoom out to show them both and i laugh at the shoes. Theres no way someone in those shoes is going to stab me.

Good to know if you live in 2024 Germany

Card counting.
Grooming = +1
Bladed stance = +1
Scanning = +1
Open hands up = -1
Open forward stance = -1
Neutral volume and tone = -1

When your count is negative, extricate yourself from the situation.
When your count is positive, prepare for war.

My goodness...
Why don't more people teach like this???

Erm actually this would be androgogy 🤓

the clickbaity title honestly turned me off at first until skallagrim reacted to the video

Very useful video and explanation. Correct mindset. Good advices!!!

cool no expert at all but I have heard from expert who analyzes real knife attacks that assailant almost never changes knife to other hand. what if no real training ? just run?

wow I loved it! No bs, clear, neutral and entertaining! Thumbs up

Alright, I don't quite understand what Paulo was teaching with the "reverse blink". Maybe learning quick assessment, not sure?

This is the best knife video I’ve ever seen. Such great philosophy

if someone is skilled with knives there is no defence against it bare handed. all techniques are bs, they come as close as they can and strike multiple times a second in different directions. run or if you can't, pick up some improvised weapon (iron bars, chairs, whatever) so that you can have a longer range of action and keep some distance.

Wow, that actually seems like if you practiced what they were doing around the end there for 20-30 minutes every odd day, you might actually be able to defend against a knife attack with minimal injury.

I wasn’t shocked

Chair
Run around a car/ large object


Run?
No
Not run
Unless you running faster than your buddy steve.

what happens if he throws the knife at you?

Uau!

I do miss two important factors in this video:

Many knife fights aren't fights, but several idiots with knives jumping in on someone having a fight and stabbing them from behind. Or the friends might not have knives, but rather have something shorter, but 9mm is a lot more threatening.
I've been stabbed (lightly) on my arm and it wasn't the guy i was head to head with. It was the guy's friend who tried to stab me even before a fight with the guy started and we were having a heated discussion (which i shouldn't even have been in, if i was thinking right at that moment, but that's ego i guess, i learnt).

The distinction that this is purely about the moment JUST BEFORE a knife attack. The moment an attack will happen.

Ego is the main problem. While running away from a knife attack in progress is indeed bound to fail, there'll generally be tells before the attack leading up to an attack, but not yet related to the body language of a knife attack, where you can get away (but that's outside of the scope of this video).

How many people here have been attacked by a person with a knife? How many expect it to happen?

Interesting stuff, I sometimes wonder, if somebody had something really bad for me, like, something against me, would they try something like this.

I am not exactly afraid of someone who would need to go to such an extent. There's an inherent weakness in their approach.

Man, this knife expert is brilliant. Super sharp and well articulated. Great video.

Well spoken man, I knew he was filipino. They have this way of being in tune with the spiritual side of things but still being able to explain it to a "western mind" that has yet to accept or understand concepts like mind, and spirit, and that celiac plexux "gut" intuition that is crucial even in the urban world.
Some of the best knife fighters in the world, given their culture.

The perfect mix of "forest" and "street", if you catch my drift.

The title card looked a little click-baity, but the content was really insightful

just love seeing a lucid genuine expert. thanks for this!
