You got it! I have another variation for fast moving engagements which dont allow for the actual “trapping” like you see here. Especially if the opponent larger/stronger
Nice video. Just one thing to aid in your training and something crucial. Stop looking directly at where you are attacking. Your peripheral vision is faster at picking up the movement and object and your looking gives away your intention. It only requires a little bit of practice to dump the habit. The opponent may not be the only threat so you need to keep open vision. It is a commonly mistake
We teach to focus on the opponents weapon and peripheral catches the torso area. Lose focus of their weapon more likely you can not counter that attack. Thanks for your input!
@@Roundtablecombatives my main system is Ninpo, but I have training in many other styles. My teacher was army special forces so he included the knife and gun work from that as well. Tiny bit of escrima as well. I am proficient in most types of weapons but knife and axe are my main focus for the last 10 or years
All good in theory, but first hand experience, getting stabbed sucks... If you fighting someone with a knife, be prepared YOU WILL get cut no questions asked. As you saw the beginning of this video the guy in the black (instructing) still would have gotten cut on the forearm if it wasn't a fake knife. Your best technique is to just run if you can, or mace then run or use your second amendment.
@@ChrisWizzerd 100% ALWAYS avoid confrontation. But when it cant be avoided it is best to be prepared. Train or not train? And yes this is a drill at first. The there are multiple opportunities to cut that werent even explained. Thanks for your imput! Keep training!
Sorry,Gentlemen, when tapping is to come first, is it necessary to do it with a hand? The same as it with awaiting the the hand withd knife? Yes, these are the question fo a beginner, yours sutt bewginns at upper level. WOuld you please maki it more applicable for all the three levels. Experts often fall into the trap of dealing with experts. Then, why are the showing it for everybody. Moay by for money? I don´t think so, itś just the lack of methodology. With all respects, please help the beginners, first. Paul,69 retires
i'm not sure i understand the question exactly. Tapping is a necessary skill you will "pass" through. But as you progress in the art and your footwork, timing and distance management become better, being in tapping range should slowly fade away. Not to say it won't happen at all, but you can better avoid being in that situation by either, moving out of range of an attack or properly countering the attack with your own strike to the attack. essentially attacking the attack. It is my experience tapping during sparring will happen between the lesser experienced who find themselves in that "oh shit" moment. OR experience fighters who purposefully gamble the encounter. almost everything showcased on this channel can and should be practiced by beginner through advanced. There really are no "beginner" movements. But there are "fundamentals" you should learn and they stay with you throughout your time of training. Hope this helps! Find us on facebook and i'd be happy to talk more in detail via messenger or email.
Great video.
Nice to see some aplication.
Sometimes these flows look like fantasy.

You're a very dangerous Man with a Blade. Great video.
