Practical Escrima Knife Defense: Filipino Martial Arts Knife Defense Training (Self-Defense)

As a long-time martial artist, I would not recommend these techniques.

I occasionally meet people that I guess you can claim as dangerous. I want to know how to defend myself in case they have a weapon. I purchased this book and let me tell you. It’s extremely helpful and I learned some things I never knew before. The description is as accurate as it can be and I don’t want to reveal any information. Sam Fury is an amazing author and I learned so many tricks because of him.

Good info. Sometimes hard to interpret due to language difference. Overall, pretty good.

Far too short

Horrible

brief but practical look at a serious sybject

It seems to give a good idea of defence, although I'm no good at such things at least I know what an attacker is likely to do. Thanks. John

An excellent insight into the knife disarming through the art of escrima

O.K. I'm not an expert so I guess I will get a lot of bad comments from a lot of experts out of the net.But I had some years of Modern Arnis and Aikido and some self defense courses. So at least a little bit of knowledge is there.In the book there are dozens of techniques but I simply do not believe they work.First of all going inside a knife fighter doesn't sound like a good ideaA lot of these techniques goes head to head and does not care about the other hand ( is it realy empty?)I suppose even if it is empty you could get hit by it.What about moving or turning your body ?Blocking and grapping? For me it seems like suicide !Then lots of techniques, what about the easy ones and drilling and repeating over and over again ???Pour pictures/drawingsSo I really can't recommend this !!!
