Self-Defense with the Unbreakable® Telescopic Umbrella U-212s

real-self-defe...
In the previous self-defense tip you learned about a system of self-defense with a walking-stick umbrella or a cane. The essence of that system applies just as well to self-defense use of a telescopic or collapsible Unbreakable® Umbrella. Even so, readers asked about specific instructions on using the telescopic umbrella. Enjoy this video and for additional instructions see Self-Defense Tip 107 at real-self-defe...

Can't you defend the knife with opened umbrella?

[@MrThule]

no. umbrella loses mobility and the open end gains advantage of leverage. you are more likely to lose control. hand holding the umbrella would get cut easy for opponent has 2 hands. both would have one hand on umbrella and you would have empty hand dealing with knife attack. that would require other type of practice and plenty of it.

_Knife vs. Open Umbrella._ Try that, and you can expect your family attending your funeral a few days later. This is coming from someone actually trained in Knife Combatives.

Thats thing is not from Mr. Boothroyd 😂

"I need an umbrella this winter. I'll just choose one to buy one on the internet." 53 minutes later... Here I am.

Awesome product and movements. Probably one of the best option.

[@MultiCoolaz]

Excellent, very reasonable technique against the knife. And absolutely fantastic umbrella.

[@FidelityElectric]

Plus the tines on the umbrella would act like a knife shield. Wonder if they make one with a Kevlar skin like the knife resistant Kevlar.

[@ForestTekkenVideos]

Cool video! 👍

[@Wa19911231]

Hong Kong people need this

[@bruc33ef]

I definitely want one of these... but also that cool raincoat! Where'd you get that?

[@misguidedangel6550]

Forget the umbrella i wanna know how much the man charges to be a bodyguard? 😂

[@NGMonocrom]

Sorry, but having actually been trained in Knife Combatives, no one is going to attack with a knife like that. They're not going to extend their arm that far out that they're horribly off balance. Nor are they going to attack in one static motion that is easy to counter. A street thug could have zero formal training, but will reply on the experience they've picked up over many years in real world encounters. They're going to close the distance, distract you, hit you with their free hand; and then bring the knife into play before you recover. Still, I can see this product being useful in certain types of violent encounters. I was ready to buy. Unfortunately, the best version of this product is typically sold for over $300.oo I'm sorry, that's too much for a club that does a fantastic job of functioning as an umbrella too.

[@ogotuwaobuto5366]

Amazing, I wish it was more affordable though.

[@extremetechtips]

Awesome! I'm looking for a new umbrella. Any discount code for these umbrellas in Canada?

[@ThomasKurz]

Check with our Canadian reseller at unbreakableumbrella.com/shipping-foreign/.

[@cierus465]

What jacket are you wearing in these videos?

[@albertwoolf7457]

Nice I want to buy 3 what's the link??

[@tommcdonnell436]

Will this pass TSA

[@robpelick7460]

I just flew domestic cross country. Since I'm not an illegal immigrant, I had to show an ID and go through security. There was no problem taking this on the plane with me.

[@AriUgwu]

Welp. Found my next everyday carry item. The movements look very similar to the happo sabaki and hanbo drills from ninjutsu. For anyone looking for more techniques to use with these umbrellas I may suggest starting there. Example video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXupe2d4ntd7jdE

[@subzero3499]

You'll never win against a knife just try and escape unless your trained with a knife and even then you'll still get cut or stabbed, people that use knives are swinging like crazy, their also grabbing you by your clothes and stabbing you frantically, there's no way you'll be able to hit their hand for them to drop the knife.

[@ThomasKurz]

Always hit the nearest body part. It doesn't have to be the knife-hand.

[@scottcharney1091]

*you're

[@wiegraf9009]

Your odds of success will be very low but if you can't run or are in a situation where running will get you stabbed in the back it's better to fight with whatever you have at hand. You will probably get severely injured or die but you MIGHT survive.
