Epic Karambit Fighting Techniques

[@Viay10tuneup]

Such a helpful technique! Im Filipino and I practice Kali by my self thanks to you guys!! Thank you for spreading FMA to the world 🇵🇭

[@kalicenter]

Thank you! Glad we can be of help! :)

[@janicejulian7172]

Geden Cayas You are a Filipino and you don't even know the Karambit is not a weapon ? It can kill . But it is actually a farming tool ! It is used to poke coconut fruit to get the water . And for trimming the Palm flower to get the sap , to make a vinegar !

[@ronisworld2916]

Janice Julian is correct. she is telling the use of it mostly in the southern region. here in the northern Luzon, we use it mainly for farming tools, when its time to harvest the rice fields. and its bigger than what you know of a karambit. wwaaaayyyy more bigger. try lookin it up in the web.

[@muddog1561]

I conceal carry a double edge Karambit EDC for my defensive knife. I would definitely like to learn more.

[@ghostface1010]

Yeah the dude in this video is a hypocrite... Watch "KARAMBIT - The Worst Everyday Carry Knife?" on KZbin kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3rZd3x8qd9neJI

[@professorbriancox5858]

Can gurhka kuhkris be used the same way?

[@Sithikus]

Why does your right leg keep coming off the ground during that drill?

[@predator397]

[@curav21]

Thankyou for this pro tip😊😊

[@carlosvillanueva1210]

Nice Video bro, kali practitioner here from the Philippines.

[@MountRainierMaryland]

will you ever come to the Wash DC area?

[@joelcresswell8242]

Does this technique work against an assailant larger and stronger than you, or does it require a totally different strategy?

[@thexpto51]

Very nice Paul!

[@kalicenter]

Salamat! :)

[@EarthAlien51]

Where did you learn this stuff?

[@ronniesilva1266]

love the video, James , like I was taught in the kajukenbo method, only the weapon is there, great stuff , keep it going ! Outstanding !

[@complexblackness]

so is Kajukenbo effective?

[@gregdaniels1559]

Excellent video. Really liked the movement

[@kalicenter]

Thank you Greg. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@luke_angelo]

That technique looks god-like ,great video! ;)

[@kalicenter]

:)

[@thenewworld1843]

congratulations !

[@AnimeUploads0813]

How about for lefties vs right handed?

[@AnimeUploads0813]

Pretty excited

[@carloslonga2015]

+Kali Center COOL entry.. Simple, Fast, Deadly and Sneaky.. just as the Karambit itself. Greetings bro!

[@lonewolf7698]

What if he don't punch you but kicks you it Does a headbut or gives a knee or Maybe An elbow or he just goes into a take down or a throw?

[@kalicenter]

Then you adapt

[@Channelofvariety-r3m]

my fav weapons in kali is karambit and tonfa

[@frlouis3266]

In a real situation you won't be able to do any of this, only the most basic stuff will work. It's good for training but reality is quite different.

[@lukepoplawski3230]

Arturo Blanco These demonstrations always look nice and flashy as the opponent is pausing and limp for manipulation of his limbs. ACTUALLY fighting someone, who DOESN’T want his arm bent that way, and is throwing his own weight around? Unlikely. Source: 7 years martial arts into Krav Maga.

[@cerb1221]

yeah, i did judo for around 3 years or so, and really the only use is for improv, and just teaching some basic ways to fight with, like i'll never use the actual throws, but now i know how to get someone off balance in different ways

[@col8179]

I practise the basic strike patterns and punches etc with it. I want motor skills of basic movements with it that I’d actually use

[@fitepitsnbonfires]

Yes real life is different you dont have a cooperating opponent ,wich will make the technique more effective,this stuff is effective its not all crap .

[@partyspirits450]

Have you tried using these techniques in a real fight?

[@marcodegiovanni3696]

Very like karambit videos!

[@kalicenter]

Right on! :)

[@TheA-d-x1e]

awesome

[@thegreedofman8797]

Thank you very much! this video was entertaining and also very helpful. Namaste

[@kalicenter]

Glad you liked the video! Salamat! :)

[@rockd8946]

Nice. Technique was good

[@stevemartin4696]

Nice.

[@iamthatiam49]

Nice technique!!!!

[@kalicenter]

Salamat!

[@quelleromanowoods7956]

My husband has many old scars on his body from knife fights, when I showed him this video, he just laughed n walked away..n I understand his laughing bcus I've seen him n serious situations

[@avery2306]

I like your focus and how it's mainly on the knife hand, and adapting this into everyday use with training wouldn't be too hard, though people do need to realise that this is a martial art, not an exact combat scenario. No real combat scenario can be reproduced in its entirety, and adaptations have to be made to certain skills to make them fully effective. I'm no expert by any means but it's just a cool and interesting thing to me that there is so many melee combat strategies that people deem as fake because they see it in the internet. Anyway, good shit

[@Daknightfury]

seems helpful if he has no left arm actually

[@alvinherlin851]

Where the karambit originated ?

[@rikokerenkerenriko98]

Alvin Herlin you can go sumatra Minangkabau you can see

[@agusfirmansyah876]

Amazing,,,,,,,,,,,

[@rildorocha9517]

Awesome!

[@wahyuutomo2928]

Karambit Minangkabau INDONESIA

[@Hafiz-cf6mr]

overpround country

[@degreecelsius7991]

balisong is more superior & its purely filipino

[@ein-ra-shah]

Hey Paul, I like the video, but I came to this one straight from the video where you tear apart the karambit and say you would never use it or stake your life on it. I noticed you posted this video two years before the other. Is there some reason why you changed your tune? Or more to the point, some reason why you used to find the karambit not only usable but promotable?

[@kalicenter]

The Karambit is still an FMA weapon. I won’t Everyday Carry one again. Never said I wouldn’t train and have fun with it ever again. 👍🏼

[@Artahe]

Didn't know karambits were used in FMA too. I always thought it was a SIlat weapon first and foremost. Also, I was thinking, can the cut to the wrist be deep enough to slice the tendons? I think (not sure though) that it would prevent the opponent from grabbing the weapon (or holding it for that matter), which could potentially put an end to the fight. Love the exchange :)

[@kalicenter]

Yes, Karambit is used in FMA. Yes, the Karambit can cut the wrist deep enough. It's a thin sharp piece of metal agains flesh. Unfortunately movies have distorted people's perception on knives and swords cutting and stabbing bodies.

wow you have a ton on skill

[@kalicenter]

5 Days (May 8th-12th) of Kali training and Apprentice Certification. Logistics and Registration are available here: www.kalicenter.com/itc.html

[@AlemooDoty]

maybe Im just 'uneducated', but I think that practicing perfect motions are not good in a fight. What if he attacks with his other hand? your technique requires your adversary to do a certain set of motions. It seems just... fake. That's my opinion, I'd rather just put a bullet in someone than the flashy knife stuff personally

[@signkutter]

if an attacker attacks from the otherside...if you cant adapt your training,,,you die...

[@remoxvideo2495]

There are 2 solutions. You practice the same movement on both sides or you apply other thing for different side which is more comfortable for you. In real scenario you react automatically, this technique is not any must done. To be honest, this is just for fun it looks cool and as it should be and they know it. Don't treat this like number one rule to survive and slice all enemies on your way.

[@IlokanoWarrior]

knives are legal to carry around and use as self defense, unless you have a concealed carry permit you can't be carrying a gun around. And in a real fight, all these fancy motions are reduced to a few motions. In a real fight there would be more slashing and less attempts to do the fancy disarms and joint locks. Also the art is different than the actual fight.

You think he will not using his left hand to hook you or punch with

[@lugrand75]

Once he drops his knife, you're no longer justified in using yours

[@ThatEsepe]

they wouldnt just stand there and let you take the knife in a high stress situation

[@Bubble23428]

Charles .m yeah but if u r quick enough then it will

[@CatholicismRules]

Said "Must Watch". I clicked.

[@zhkd]

you don’t know your attacker tho. in a real fight u have noooo idea where there throwing punches and how they fight so y’all are practically role playing cause u know how he’s gonna go at you 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@kalicenter]

This is the only attack sequence you have to train. It is magic, train it enough and you will possess the magical skills of a wizard and will be able to defend any unpredictable attack by any person with up to 6 arms and 4 legs!

[@zhkd]

Kali Center i’m not gonna lie ya sound like a crack head talkin abt magic n 6 arm n legs n stuff like what

[@brandonbeger6606]

You must keep it simple. Period.

[@tristinmink3017]

I was reading some of the comments and they are right too many blocks you're in a life or death situation more lacerations to each artery remember he could have a buddy in the bushes you have to do things faster locate each artery and slice

[@sachrifadillah7065]

nice from indonesia

[@avocatiasilungudragos9600]

Very good technique...seems you don t need a knife !! :)

[@smallhandy1878]

why bother with opponent knife's if you could cut his throat righ away?

[@kalicenter]

Because it makes the video a bit more entertaining. Unfortunately, most people don't appreciate the reality of Authentic Kali so we have to do things like this on videos.

[@Chomakot]

The demonstration guy looks like sokka but nice video

[@MrRayhan61]

too much blocking enemy attack.....not very effective technique but....every matrial art have their own style,I respect for it *thumbs up

[@sSerris]

Nice work you got there, but with a real opponent the enemy wouldn't have a such slow attack speed and would've back off or use his second arm since the first one is taken and blocked

[@richardwebster1192]

We are looking into a karambit for each of us

[@KN-nz6ri]

Your everyday chump would not be able to perform techniques like this in the streets. However, if a "True - Kali Warrior" trains to find the techniques on a moving opponent - then the techniques work. Timing and proximity... The 2 main attributes to conquering an aggressive attack. Soften up your attacker, find the opening. . . then its on👊

[@707SonomaComa]

I love these training videos. But in every video I see the attacker ALWAYS thrusts or punches waaay to the right side of the defender which sets up for that 1st move.

[@kalicenter]

Yeah, these types of videos are not real training. They're just fun videos.

[@707SonomaComa]

@@kalicenter yea but it really shows your skills. A lot of hard work practice and dedication goes into that training. It's quite impressive.

[@MonkeyGofficial]

too slow for the karambit

[@rildorocha9517]

f##king awesome!

[@kernel837]

so why did the other guy use is other hand to help him self. in real life a person would use is other hand to help defend his or her self

[@kalicenter]

He can, we just didn't do it in this video. You can work it in yourself though. Have fun :)

[@Ruddyroye]

You missed a moment where you were vulnerable

[@ComradeAlpharius]

Lots of flashy movements to accomplish very little, each of these techniques passes up a dozen ways to end the fight in order to do different arm holds for no reason.

[@slonix4016]

i would just run like flash himself

[@kalicenter]

Me too!

[@fitepitsnbonfires]

To the real self defence guy ,sometimes these knife techniques work and sometimes they dont ,its a knife your talking about , if you face down someone with a knife you will likely get cut or one of you will ,ive done knife defence and kali escrima and there are no sure fire defences against a knife that work 100%of the time its a knife its a inaniment object it dosent care one way or another what or who it comes in contact with so if you can show me something better then what escrima has to offer ill listen im all ears man .training is essential ,you cant train knife denfence enough you just cant train enough to be absolutely without mistke but you can get proficient with training .so keep training .

[@SeBo-BUNDANGMANJIKAI]

My educational video

[@krynovivanenshkovi2565]

is dangerous this technic... is better the first cut in the arm in the arteria yes, but this twist and desarm the blade with karambit is very dangerous

The brilliance of making a KZbin video for the common viewer. ;)

[@GhoulV2]

i feel like i just watched the avatar again

[@muhammedshamil2443]

Two or more separate movements for a single attack is not effective, it only works if you are twice as fast as your opponent

[@penuelasmma3626]

Cortale la coleta

[@donkeytwoddle]

Weakest attacker effort in a demo I've seen in a while... Immitating a 90 year old arthritic person? The speed, telegraphing warning given and direction of the attack were not close to realism.

[@signkutter]

its a fucking demo...

[@donkeytwoddle]

It is easy to make up an ineffective move and make it look effective in slow-mo, so what is he demonstrating? That's why the top schools I've been to demonstrate slowly and then show at full speed. Particularly with the knife attacks, defence needs to be pressured and fast otherwise for all you know it is just a fancy idea that gets inches of steel pressed inside you. The attack needs to be real so the defence is shown to be real; it is just play-time otherwise.

[@signkutter]

he isnt teaching anything...he is demonstrating how the blade is intended to be used....not every conceivable way it CAN be used and real time examples. ..its a sales video...not an instructional

[@kalicenter]

It's just a KZbin video. This isn't real fighting. LOL

[@williamdaystar]

My point exactly. His left hand was completely free

[@dustinperry1653]

Literally the ad prior to this video is showing garbage disarming techniques used in the video

[@chrisanderson2719]

I gotta ask why are people not being safe and using training knives . Someone could get hurt

[@kalicenter]

These are training knives used in this video.

[@tajemnikbuda854]

🔊🔊🔊

[@hendricusdani3547]

kali martial art..from majapahit

[@maxschreiber4387]

I am a real martial art nerd but i dont think that weapon technics have to spread over youtube so everyone can see and use them :/

[@ovantyrtana1622]

Karambit original Indonesia Minangkabau

[@xXSoulSlayerx]

nice one, but what is with his right handy, with you're right site, it's completely open, a kick with his knee in your Rips or your kidney and I'm sure the fight will end on another way, what's up with your head, ha hit with is left hand on your head or your neck, you've got the same problem like the knee, the fight will end on another way. yeah sure, if you are fast enough, nothing will happen, but if you give him just a half second, I think it can be difficult. If someone Understand what I mean, and have some ideas to clear that problem, because the technique Is nice, but in my view there a too many problems, so please put your ideas here. >| Oh yeah, sorry for my English, it's not my language. |

[@kalicenter]

In a fight, sometimes you get hit. Why be afraid of that. Embrace the pain! :)

[@ilxvesundays]

and if knocks tha fuck out of me with the left arm?

[@kalicenter]

Hope you have eyes to see a left arm attack coming at you. It's called "LOOK"

[@yozi5514]

as someone with few years of box training i can tell you if you the enemy isnt completely retarded or drunk you will die if you try to pull that shit of...

[@ShadrikEaston]

surely drop your weight... rip the knee... dont overcomplicate. the karambit plays to the strengths.... why would i rotate the wrist and then weak draw hook. i dunno. seems weird. but then i aint the messiah of knives. explain :)

[@FANgames-kv1tl]

Broń dla dresów

[@2663540]

😂😂😂😂 yeaaah thats probably not how its gonna come down.

[@louiscaudron1857]

Indonesian blade.

[@gaigehurtz7302]

Yeah good luck with that when someone is swinging wildly as fast as they can and you don’t know where it’s coming from

[@kalicenter]

Yup, so a good solution would be to train more and do other things.

[@hannakentm9913]

That's just playing into the opponents hand, revealing that the attacker is unskilled and doesn't know what they're actually doing. Practice, technique, timing will prevail.

[@saucycreations5488]

These kinds of videos are really unrealistic. The attacker would be much more unpredictable and fast. Plus, whould carrys a karambit around, ready in there hand?

[@Fraz001]

CoffeEcstasy.

[@ugurbayramoglu7518]

it is just show. you can not do theese moves in real life. Because nobody swing the knife from up.

[@professorbriancox5858]

Yeah this is all for fun don't forget :) self defense comes from regular sparring. Having KNOWN what you've learned is half the battle, USING what you learned gives you the skills you need for the street.

[@ugurbayramoglu7518]

do not angry to me. I mean if any body watch after to you ,tries to do theese without having any training. I just warned them.

[@professorbriancox5858]

Don't worry dude I'm not angry xD Just thought you misunderstood. Have a great day.

[@donnieg9117]

If your partner is flinching on every strike that's not good on the instructor. Really like the thigh/femral como but the instructor might have taken a deep cut just before that
