I thought I read here on FR a few months back that a man with a knife can cover 20 feet and connect in 2 seconds or less.
I had a martial arts school and one of my partners was a cop. He showed me a video called “Edged Weapons” and in that video a safe distance from someone with a knife, with your gun still in the holster is 21 feet. And they show you with someone holding a rubber knife at 5 ft., 10 ft., 15 ft., 20 ft., and they all get stabbed. 21 feet was the safe distance from someone who knows how to handle a knife.
Myth busters did a segment on it. If a guy with a knife is within 20 feet of you, he can stab you to death before you get your gun out of its holster.

The man had been approaching with the knife, not obeying commands for a full 20-30 seconds before he was tazed....
He should have been shot as he was trying to get back up with the knife still in his hand.
oh... and btw.... that woman cop has absolutely no business out shooting tazers at peeps. She needs to go back to training or better yet get a desk job. I was thinking to myself as he was attacking her with her screaming and all...
