What's going on guys this black scout survival and today I'm going to show you some talk about knife defenses you know using a knife for knife fighting and this is more of your offensive things to help you in our defensive situations so basically let's first start off with a fighting you know defensive knife most all of us carry.

Some type of EDC folder and those split seconds that it takes to you know flip a knife out no matter if it's assisted or not could cost you your life you know or put you at a disadvantage so when we're talking about fighting knives we're really looking at you know fix small fixed blade options and this one here is from a my friends have their Sentinel.

Gear that makes them very very good small you know concealable fighting knives like this one here and this one can be inserted in your you know cross body it can be deployed you know with the reverse grip like this which is good for you know quick techniques instead of pulling it out and sticking like this so you know pulling out and sticking this.

Very quick technique then you have the benchmade sock P which has a ring Caramba style you know to fight with but it's been proven that at a close distance you know you know someone attacking me right here that is it's quicker for me to deploy a knife and defend myself than to pull out a firearm because it could become a wrestling.

Match you know if I traded my firearm out and me trying to fight for my pistol whereas if I take out a you know fixed blade and stick real quick and create distance then pull up my firearm so you know that's something you really need to understand and if you're carrying concealed go ahead and carry it on your non-dominant side you know what I mean.

Something like this and the waistband holster like I said from Sentinel gear gives you that option now if you're not carrying a fire armed I suggest carrying on your strong side obviously right you don't want to be funneling with your non-dominant hand pull it out with your strong hand so if you're one of the places that you can't.

Carry a firearm this will give you you know option to defend yourself and obviously you don't like it's your state local law suit you can't carry what you can't carry and abide by them but another thing too is like if I was a female I would definitely you know carry a knife I couldn't carry a pistol.

If I was walking into a dark alley I'd go ahead and have that bad boy out you know hidden like this right here you know just go ahead and have it out my hand if I'm walking along late at night you know you know a parking garage or something like that I'd go ahead and have that ready to go that's just me if I was a female so anyhow you also have.

To look at you know there's a lot of hocus-pocus with the knife fighting stuff I see some knife fighting systems and every time I see them like sparring the other the person that they're using the knife against don't have any weapons that's not real life if you're pulling deploying a knife it's probably because other person has a weapon it's multiple.

Attackers stuff like that if you're pulling a knife against unarmed person you're probably going to prison because you're the bad guy so unless you're a female that's a whole different story obviously but anyhow now we're just going to talk about a few techniques of what you you know need to do we need to have in your mind practice to help aid.

You in a knife fighting situation so in a knife fighting situation you understand that if the other person has a knife you're probably going to get cut it's just reality of it the last thing you should everyone do is get a knife on knife fighting situation that's bad and you know whenever I see a lot of times and I see a lot of military combat its.

Program they'll have the guy standing with their knife back like this and be fighting now you can obviously see why this is bad so my guy here he has all this typing up and I got a I've just lost a lot of reach by having my main weapon back here so in a real situation you want to have your knife out here so that way he has to pass the.

Knife to get to you so you can see there this is like a shield and if he comes in I'm going to cut him up you know and a lot of people will say only go to vital targets but if he comes in and I slash his wrists right there he's not going to be want to fight too long because it's going to hurt a and he's going to be bleeding like crazy may not even retain.

His knife from how much blood so always have the knife out here to make them have to pass it keep it you know like kind of like a shield and have it pointed at your target even in a reverse grip have it pointed that's your target don't have your knife over here right the next thing is is that always have your knife moving so if in different.

Different angles like you know just have it moving and just do different things with it because now like if if Zacks got a knife here and he's just holding it right there I'm going to grab that thing and pop it out and get rid of it so him holding a static it's going to give me time to mentally process to go ahead and.

Grab this thing and get it out of his hand right but now if he's moving it and I and I try this technique I'm going to miss so that's why you want to have him moving the other thing is don't just keep moving like this because then you know the same repetition because then he's going to get on to it and time it so just have it moving crazy so now you.

Have a crazy shield basically that's keeping him not wanting to mess with you okay another concept is that your your knife blade needs to be sharp you're defensive knife you should never use it to cut anything like opening boxes or anything like that it should be solely used to to defend yourself it's kind of like using a your pistol as a hammer you.

Know what I mean you wouldn't do it for that your defensive knife is a defensive knife so if it's very sharp it doesn't matter where are you cutting obviously the best things to do it especially if I'm trying to kill somebody is I'm going to go for the throat you know anywhere up in here you know or femoral arteries you go I'm saying so that that.

Obviously what I definitely want to go to but in a knife fighting situation where he has a knife I'm not going to go in and try to cut him here because what can he do stick me you know in the neck or whatever you know so me trying to be overly aggressive to try to hit these targets is is going to get me killed basically you know I'm over committing.

To get up in here to get you know get to a lot of target whereas if he comes in again and I and I slashed him and move back I just slashed him open pretty good if my knife is sharp and he's not going to stay in the fight too long if we keep on you know and I'm stabbing him all up in here you know he's not he's not going to want to keep going on if he's you.

Know arms all cut up he's going to start having nerve damage tendons and stuff like that the other thing is is your other hand sometimes you see a lot of people doing this right here what am i doing I'm leaving good flesh out here for him to cut up so I want to have my other hand here at my face because face and neck and I want to protect that in.

Case he does get in on me you know I can try to you know get that away from my face and go for you know a lethal shot so always get your hand up here obviously don't put it in front of your face to block your vision you know have it right here to your throat and have that knife out here moving for him to you know have to pass to get to you.

The other thing is is never like I said never fight a fight you don't have to fight no matter fist fight gun fight whatever it is it's better to stay allowed to fight another day you know and never you know try to especially you know there's a lot of ninjas out there that if I man be handed against someone and they'll try to do some kind of crazy.

Move you know I feel pretty skilled with different combatants and never in a million years unless I'm probably going to die for the situation am I going to try to take a knife from someone okay that's just not what I'm going to do I'm going to run as fast as I can to get away but these were just some basic things to help you with knife fighting a.

Lot of people you know at like knife fighting is a sexy thing it is definitely not if you look on YouTube or just Google you can see some you know especially in third countries where people get knife fights it turns out bad for both parties there's no hero at the end of a knife fight so always you know evade if you.

Can but anyhow guys they said these are just some basic techniques basic things to do just remember you know keep that knife out there pointed out a moving keep your hand up here to block don't leave any targets out there for them and stuff like that so hopefully enjoy this video makes your out to our channel we put out a few new video videos every.
