We took a trip to visit Patrick Odle, a master of self-defense and combat, and he explained the basics for defending yourself with an edged weapon!

    With how George dropped his knife just taking it out of his pocket, I don’t think he should even try to defend himself against a mosquito. 😂

    I lived in the Philippines for 3 years back in the mid-80s and trained in martial arts there. This guy is legit, depending on your school of thought, but as Mike Tyson says, "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth". The #1 rule I was taught was if you get into a knife fight, you WILL get cut, which could be fatal, so if at all possible, avoid, avoid, avoid (run away). But it is all about slashing, not stabbing, especially tendon termination, because you disable the aggressors ability to attack without killing them, but as a last resort, slash an artery, they'll bleed out in less than two minutes... but maybe not enough time before they get you too. Edged weapon combat is an ugly business. That's why I carry a gun, LOL. I prefer 7 yd justice...

    I study FMA. 1)The idea of your live blade attacking against empty hands is problematic. 2) While the Hubbad angle training is great for building pathways I have found that the only way to learn is by hard sparring. Besides that , spot on , especially the draw and closed use of the folder.

    Why would you chop his hand when you pass it with your hand? You are as likely to chop you own hand off...this is all ridiculous. Adrenaline ruins fine motor skills and all this flowy slashing in x shapes isnt realistic. Its very fast and rough. Watch actual knife fights videos. Its over in seconds usually and theres no fancy stuff

    Sorry but this is McDojo stuff. Any real self defense expert will tell you to run if someone pulls a knife. Reason being that someone with little to no training in knife combat is still super deadly. I have seen people fught with machetes and it never looked like in the movies or games. What's next? Knife throwing lessons?

    Thank you for this comment. You are correct. With all due respect, this fighting demonstration started out with basic 18th century Angelo Navy Cutlass/Backsword patterns (this is good) then moved into Arnis/Kali/Escrema patterns (bad) Then continued with McDojo errors. Why bad? Because of cooperative partners. Fights are blindingly fast, and chaotic, none of the close up sequences work simply because if you stay in the pocket human reaction time ofvabout 300 milliseconds can’t handle the blurr, or what we call in fencing the blurry wall of scissors. No. You use footwork to keep your distance and attack with longest weapon to nearest target. If You stay in the pocket like that your toast. Further, if you pull a blade on an unarmed attacker, YOU are the bad guy according to a jury. My credentials? A JKD practitioner, and Fencing specialist in Cutlass/Sabre

    Narratives are stories. In reality everyone knows knives are both tools and weapons. Always have been. Always will be. A denial narrative helps nothing because it's not genuine

    Heres the short answer to your title, just give them the money. The damage your going to incur attempting to fight someone isnt worth it, but I know how most knife guys are. Since your all too horny for violence for your own good your gonna attempt this crap one day, and its gonna be fuckin hilarious.
