Cool video. After you block a knife attack be ready for a reverse slash, low kick or head butt. Not everyone is going to reset their stance after the first block. Attackers with training use combinations and keep attacking through blocks or getting counter punched

LOL @ the Deputy Barney Fife crossed-forearm knife block @ 5:14 .. Actually, that is a common knife block technique from traditional Jiu-Jitsu. I've always thought it to be pretty risky, though .. if not executed with precision (and superior strength) a real danger of sustaining a serious lacerating and incapacitating injury to the arm(s). 😟

Don’t try to make people believe that there’s any chance of taking on someone with a blade because it will just spread a false belief.

[@edi9892]

I immediately liked it. Most knife-defenses focus on the weapon arm, but that puts you at a great disadvantage! It's much harder to stab you, when you keep moving and when the attacker has to think of protecting himself from incoming attacks, whereas when you wait for the attack you give an easy target and you probably fail at catching the arm and you can do only so many blocks or evasions until you get hit... Someone dazed or at least distracted is much easier to grab, hit, or whatever. Just a few words of warning: 1) small knives are meant to be felt not seen. If you're a small woman and try to keep a junky at bay with a tiny blade, chances are he'll straight up ignores it, even if he impales himself, or punches into the blade! On the other hand, if someone tries to attack you with a small blade, you'll probably won't see it coming! He'll attack you from behind and even if you see his attack, it will most likely look like an empty-handed attack, and when you try to block it, you might get skinned! 2) Many people draw knives not to kill you, but to threaten you, either to rob you or chase you off, scare you, etc. Thus, any hostile action from your side might escalate it into a life-and-death scenario, where there are no real winners. 3) if someone comes at you with a knife, your best chances are likely, to either KO him when he still thinks that you'll be only be thinking on defense, or to run away.

[@TR-qq7jq]

... According to Hick's law the reaction time is the time interval between the presentation of the stimulus and the beginning of the response to it. In layman's terms, when presented with a stimulus, your brain seeks options to engage the stimulus. So, not knowing when and how the knife attack will come, means you will either overestimate the attack, underestimate the attack, or accurately engage the attack. So this give us, roughly, a 33% chance of blocking any assault. If you are engaging a trained knife player, you will get shredded because no knife attack comes in one move. I think this might work for the Sensei against someone untrained, but the best move against a knife assault, if possible is to run. I do think, that empty hand defense, Aikido can greatly benefit the practitioner. I did Aikido for quite sometime and moved to MMA simply because I wanted a broader range of skills.

[@kurrie3280]

I have never been in a knife fight thankfully but everything I have seen or read indicates that even if you are the victor, you will suffer damage unless you can avoid it entirely, as you have written.

[@captainskippy6622]

Basically Hick’s Law says the more response options you have the longer your brain will take to select the “proper” response. Therefore commonality of training is a must. kISS rule.

[@gonzo2495]

@ Shut up, his way from his hand with the knife to his feet is less than your way, so in most cases your foot will get cut.

[@pablogaeta3815]

I see missed opportunities to take out the knee, as the first slash is coming in and right after. (at 5:30 and 5:34). Also, i see huge opening for the knife to be pulled back at 5:49. Knife disarming practice is great for improving your technique. Actual knife defense requires a brutal attack of the knees, imo.

[@JM-Blackjack]

I agree with the Michael Williamson comment. First: Great channel, great people, realistic fighting moves. These guys are real. I used to be partners in a gun shop in London, The Southern Armoury in the East end. And I used to hang at Elephant's Castle with crazy geezers so, I can tell these guys have been around. I'm an ex-cop from a big American city and have had many real fights, used knives as a cop, am a black belt in Kyokushinkai-kan, was trained by a WWII jiu jitsu instructor and jungle fighter starting as a kid. In a real knife fight, anything can happen and a trained knife person if his wrist is deflected, will immediately circle like a fencer. It also makes a big difference if it is a bowie, a 4" folder or a double edge dagger. I graduated the Koga school course of baton fighting and when I was armed with a regulation baton or blackjack, I don't care who it was, even if they had a knife, they went down and usually had a cracked skull. If they were not close, but needed only a couple giant steps to stab me, I did of course have the convenience of pulling a gun. The few times that situation occured, each offender dropped the knife so fast, like someone pulled it with a string. But please listen: if you have nothing and someone confronts you armed with even a cheap steak knife- Run if you can. Don't try any moves unless you have no way out. Run. No shame in it. It is not a contest and forget knife videos showing expensive knives that pierce car doors- even a 5.00 knife cuts human flesh!

[@attygarland6909]

Since watching the video, I have run across other KZbin videos depicting a very scary and uncommon type of knife attack, typical in prisons and such .. nicknamed "the sewing machine". As named, it involves the attacker rapidly thrusting their knife back and forth at their victim repeatedly, akin to a sewing machine needle being used to sew something. I did see various defenses to such an attack presented in KZbin videos, including at least one using traditional Aikido techniques (which, IMHO, I believe might prove to not be effective/practical on the street). Would be curious to see what our Aikidoflow boys come up with to defend against such an attack. Based on those videos out there and the past A.F. videos on knife attacks, I would envision it involving using the "x-block" with the forearms to stop the initial thrust, then grabbing the attacker's wrist forcibly with both hands to immobilize it, possibly a well-placed knee blow, and then finally finishing with the execution of a joint lock/throwing technique of one type or another to (break the arm? wrist?) and disarm the attacker. ? KEEP GROWING, AIKIDOFLOWERS!
