Knife Defense techniques has been around since the early centuries. With the use of firearms for self defense, defending against a knife has taken a back seat.
However, in some countries like the United Kingdom their stats of knife attacks happens every 4 seconds back in 2008 (dailymail.co.uk) this is more knife attacks per capita than U.S. gun attacks at the time.
Regardless, knife attacks do exist and here we will introduce functional knife defense that was design to be taught to the mass, learned in a few minutes, but needs to be honed. The more you practice the better you get.
There are many cases where a knife attack occurs, it can be from a distance (21 feet) where they come running madly at you with a blood curling cry. Or, you're in a fist fight and the next you know you feel sharp pains on your body or arms.
Yes, there are many self defense system out in the market. Take a look at this fella Sal Mascoli a USMC veteran explaining his way of handling a knife attack. Check out the full footage on self defense against a knife attack here. How about you all come across any good self defense system?
What about pointed sticks?
I hate being late to the party.
Shutup!
Last one here buys the beer!
You like Shiner Bock?
Barney teaches Andy how to defend himself from a knife attack.
Richard Pryor said it best.....
“If somebody pulled a knife on you, and you can’t pull out nuthin’ but a hand with some skin on it, your intelligence ought to tell you to...RUN!
“But people be watchin’ Kojak too much; they think they have to be [sings] “Macho Man! I’ll take that knife and shove it up your a$$! I’m Macho Man!”
You go from “Macho Man” to [sings] “Dead Person!””
A British Commando who was trained by William Fairbairne said his body was covered with scars from knife fights.
If that guy got cut then I would get cut really bad.
Shutup!

Sgt: We haven’t done them, have we?
Right. Bananas. How to defend yourself against a man armed with a banana.
Now you, come at me with this banana. Catch! (throws a banana to him)
Now, it’s quite simple to defend yourself against a man armed with a banana. First of all you force him to drop the banana; then, second, you eat the banana, thus disarming him. You have now rendered him ‘elpless.
Palin: Suppose he’s got a bunch?
Sgt: Shut up.
Idle: Suppose he’s got a pointed stick?
Sgt: Shut up.

If you see it coming, the “X” block technique puts you in a very advantageous position to disarm or neutralize the attacker.
Ayup. Good stuff.
Run over them with your SUV. It’ll make the news that way.

Absolutely correct. I’ve seen enough knife fights to know that you are going to get cut.
If I had a choice and had to face a fight I’d rather it be a gun at a distance than any woman with a knife. I’ve seen a woman with a knife and if I ever see one again I will run as fast and as far as my old legs will carry me. If I can get my hands on a long enough substantial weapon I’ll do all I can to terminate the attacker.

30” length of rebar will beat a knife. Great weapon.
If used correctly as an offensive weapon there is no defense to a knife. I was taught that the golden rule of using a knife in combat is that the enemy is cut and bleeding out and semi-conscious before he even knows you have a knife.
That defense is great if you are trying to get stabbed.
