What's going on guys black Scout survival and today we're going to be talking about the Koran bit I'm going to be talking about my favorite Quran bit for EDC and for defensive applications as well as showing you some techniques that you can practice at home and this is going to how you can use with the combin and how it can also transfer to.

Empty hands fighting as well so I've showed both of those techniques so hopefully enjoy and stay tuned for the video    so let's talk about my favorite EDC kerambit and this is the the Emerson.

This is the combat Chrome but a few years ago we reviewed the super Khurram but now the difference between these two are the combat chrome is a little bit smaller then maybe it's not called the crumb combat it maybe just be called the chrome bit but this got a two and a half inch blade whereas this one the super chrome has a three inch blade you know.

This is just really big as a lot bigger handles so it kind of like just you know you really notice it in your pocket so that's why I went to the smaller version here it's just as capable and it's really good now the benefit of the the Emerson is this a little lip right here this the wave feature and what this does is this pulls your pocket as you're.

Pulling it out and opens up so like a standard folder you've got to get out and try to flip out the Emerson all you got to do is under you know stress into rest find that ring twist out and pop out in your you know ready to go blades out for you so it also has a huge thumb hole right there so if you're using it like a standard you can just open it up.

There now the benefit another benefit of the Khurram but you know this is an Indonesian weapon using a lot of different Filipino martial arts but the two identifying features here is a retention ring and the curved blade now you look at something like the sake which I do like as well it has the retention ring but not the curved blade.

And that's going to play a big part in in the type of fighting you use with the Crom but it's really designed for really close quarters and grappling type situations where you're trying to manipulate the body move the body and cut while you're doing it so the sock Pete isn't going to do that it's not gonna have that same ability but anyhow.

Let's talk a little bit about the knife a little bit more this is I got a g10 handle CPM 154 blade it's flat ground it's got a liner lock big thumb hole and wave feature jumping on the back pocket clip that you can wear on either side and if you're carrying a firearm you may want to carry it on your opposing side now I got this.

One from OpticsPlanet right now this is the cheapest that I've seen it it's 175 on there normally this is like a $280 knife so this version right here 175 and you can use our discount code down below use that link user discount code get another 15% off and you're getting this knife for a really good price so anyhow let's talk about some techniques and I.

Kind of go over those for let's talk about striking with the chrome bit and this is like Universal anti-crime but and it can even be applied to standard knives as well but we're going just go to the five the major five of the you know most Philippine martial arts the other good thing about the emerson you can use it as like a brass knuckle type.

Thing or hammer fist without having to blade out now this is a trainer make sure you use a trainer if you're gonna you know practice or anything like that gonna cut yourself put yourself at risk but anyhow we got your number one strike which is going down from you know your color bone across body then you come back to and go down three is cross body.

Midsection I mean you could go throw it if you want to whatever but just a horizontal then four and then a five as a stab so you can you know use it with the blade and you'll notice that whenever I hit my hand or arm people do that in Filipino martial arts that's called rebounding so instead of me swinging here and then.

Coming back users aren't a rebound to help because you're using a lot of pressure when you're cutting they helped your guide yourself back across so that's called a rebounding just in case you ever seen Filipino martial arts guys do that but you can also use the knife where you swing it out to the extended grip so we have the ice pick grip extend.

The grip and this is really secure like it may not look like it but I mean it's really secure and it's good for giving that extension on a blade and that's another good thing about the kramat so you can be fighting like this and then extend out and it's really good for getting those throat cuts so so you can do extended strikes as well.

Some chromis have reverse blaze which that's the good point of that or if it's a dull part of the blade you can just strike somebody or you can also cure it in a standard grip now some guys will say hey you don't use a retention ring like that that's crazy you have a retention ring use it there's no reason why you need to hold your knife like.

This when you got a retention rating this is even unnatural in the hand it doesn't feel right so I know there's a lot of hocus-pocus out there says to do this do not do that use the retention ring that's how it's designed to be used and you can do the same thing like a typical knife just with a curved blade and so you can you know do all those.

Strikes as well so that's the striking pattern now we're going to go over some defensive applications alright guys so techniques and I guess who's back we've got black scout commandos Zack on the scene it's been a minute he's got a YouTube channel called concealed survival go over there and subscribe to that he had put out videos in a long.

Time but maybe I'll go subscribe something will put out some more videos anyhow so we're going to do some techniques for you and we're gonna start off with like some you know straight stab stuff got the Quran but out so guys got a knife and he's gonna do a just a straight stab at me and I'm a block so it's day again so he's gonna and I'm.

Gonna slap this look so I'm gonna slap and I'm gonna take this one and scoop and trapped and then cut the mixed section so we'll do that again so if he cuz I'm a step outside outside now that's important footwork is important so we're gonna step out to the outside of the body so go ahead and then cut to the midsection so now let's say he goes.

High we're gonna go we're gonna cut here and then I can go to extend the grip and cut across I can go to his throat if I want to just like that right there so it would look real slow so I go ahead and hit here shrap here go ahead and go extended grip and then cut the throat and I think I'm hitting Ronald's carotid artery Emma yeah so that could be deadly.

We'll do that one more time and cut to the throat on that extent of grip now that's the benefit that instead of grip it gives me another you know eight inches so go ahead and go will to that point you know it's gonna be hard for me to do that here but on that extended grip and up as I push him away the next one we look at is our defending.

Against the number one slash somebody's come to cross body slash and we'll also do a stab and I'm also gonna show the heavy hand technique for this so if black Scout commandos axe gives me a number one you're gonna see I'm gonna block here okay and notice how my crime is up that's for me to trap his hand to guide him here and you notice I'm gonna.

Immediately shoot my hand here and the reason for that is is so if I just do this that's gonna cut my stomach right but so go ahead and begin and so here I'm going to stop and trap his hand here and now I have the button that MIDI portion of the thumb and I'm gonna pinch that and from here because it you know makes him loosen up his hands I can take.

My knife and hit it there cut his hand up if I have to and then you know do whatever kind of damage I need to to him from that position now if he gives me you can give me a number put it in a stab reverse grip so if he comes a stab at me I can kind of do the same thing trap around here disarm here shoot his arm across and give them a you.

Know cut across the midsection so we'll show that again you give me that stab again still my block and I'm immediately bringing the arm around and I can go here and I'm cutting as I'm moving through him so that is a a good way to do defend against of stab now let me show you with empty hands how this works as well so and you can practice this at.

Home if you don't have a kromm bit you get a sharpie marker or whatever if you give me a number one I'm immediately gonna do the same thing I'm gonna shoot out my hand and I'm gonna grab here I'm gonna transfer here now grab his thumb and I disarm here okay now I'm going to show you how to the number one if we can't get that disarmed and then we got.

To a strike and then he stops the strike what we can do to combat that so number one again we're going to do the same thing and so now we're here and I can't get that disarmed so I'm gonna go to a strike and he stops me okay now that curve blah that's where this is gonna come in handy because now I can control that arm and.

Cut at the same time so what I'm gonna do is since I have that button now I'm going to go ahead and disarm him with himself and trap him and now I can do that cut so do that one more time so now I'm gonna grab that arm with that curved blade i'ma shoot down I'm gonna grab a cross and then I can cut wrap him up whatever and you notice that grab my arm.

Real quick and so you notice that right here I'm trapping that arm just like that right there so I can cut him do whatever I want to to him alright guys so that was a little bit of Crom but video make sure if you want to get this Emerson trauma to go hit that link below use the discount code like I said this is the cheapest that I've seen it 175 of.
