01:52When you meet an armed assailant with a knife, he's probably the most dangerous opponent you're going to be.
01:57He will either be a thruster, he will either be a slasher or a hacker,
02:01he will either hold it in what we call an earth position or ice pick position,
02:06or he will hold it in what we call the hammer position.
02:10Both are very, very dangerous.
02:12So the techniques I'm about to show right now, these are our last resort techniques.
02:18If you have to fight a person tonight, get something that's a little bit longer.
02:21Anything that will give you even 1-inch advantage, 2-inch advantage, 3-inch, better 12-inch advantage.
02:29Possibility, if a opponent has a knife here, and if you have time to roll up a newspaper.
02:33If you feel this, it doesn't look like that, but I don't know.
02:38On the face here, you know, it will try, and there's nothing to move the opponent out.
02:43So, if you can hold it at this length, rubber band or you call it, you don't have time.
02:47This is an X-E2 to keep the range between the hand, right in the face, and obviously go into
02:53the face.
02:54Okay?
02:54If you can't roll it that long, then sometimes you're better off holding it and use paper this length.
03:00This has more, does not keep it great, but if you hit the face, you have to feel it, you
03:06know what I'm saying?
03:06So that you have the bases over here.
03:09You can use this, and this will at least give you room.
03:11Even if you're trusting us in the knife, it's very painful.
03:15A lot of times if you just have a, I think, this is good enough because this will go to
03:22the line, strike, and this will at least give you time, buy time to get into a better position.
03:29Okay?
03:29A clipboard would be one.
03:32Even a clipboard, this will give you the extension so that you hack, hack.
03:36It's not as good as probably another knife, but at least it will buy you time.
03:41Okay, the other one would possibly be a book.
03:44A book is good because you can still hack, hack, or hack, hack, and still use time to strike it.
03:50So these are very good.
03:52If you have no other thing, maybe a shoe.
03:55A shoe is excellent.
03:57A hit, you can hold it like this.
03:59If there's a good heel here, you can hit the hand here and back here.
04:03You can be holding on the side of the foot if it has a good leather sole.
04:06You can still do a lot of these things and it will do the job.
04:09If you don't have anything else, even a ruler, anything.
04:13I'll be honest with you, but even a hit here on the hand, fingers, strike, eyeball, this will give you
04:19buy you time.
04:20I will use a cell phone, however you'll probably be able to use it.
04:24You can use this to throw one back, and you can use this, or even this portion here buys you
04:31time so that you can get into another position.
04:34A clipboard would be excellent.
04:35It doesn't have to be much, but you can release, smash, smash, and it will give you that extension.
04:42That's all you're asking for is an extension.
04:44If you have a palm stick or a room stick, even this much is good enough because you can go
04:50back to that position here and use this position.
04:54Use the hand, you can always use this back in many ways.
04:58Whether you use it as a composition, well, like this, let's do this to be the same thing.
05:05I started in Filipino martial art, in and out of it as a child, but not really seriously.
05:12And I really got into it heavily around 1959, 60s, 61, and still not as heavily as it was in
05:21the latter part of the 60s.
05:24Every Filipino martial art instructor taught some form of knife fighting.
05:30Some taught more single stick or double stick.
05:33Some Filipino systems had double dagger and single dagger systems, and some taught only how to defend against it.
05:40So, usually, like in the Lacoste system, we learned a single dagger, double dagger, nine methods of the double dagger
05:48system.
05:49And then we also learned how to defend against it, empty hand, and with the stick.
05:55So, the main people that taught me, both in the Los Angeles area and in the Stockton area, which is
06:02my hometown, was John Lacosta or Juanita Lacosta.
06:07And he taught me in the L.A. area, and he taught me in the Stockton area.
06:11And the next person that taught me from my hometown was Master Regino Ilostrisimo.
06:17The other person that taught me in that area was Max Cerminto.
06:23Most of these people are past L.A. rate.
06:25And the other people that taught me in the Los Angeles was Sam Tendancia, Jack Santos, Pedro Apolado, and Pascual
06:35Ovalos.
06:36They all taught me some sort of knife defense.
06:40And in the area, because he used to come into my area quite frequently, was Tuhan Gahi of the Bikiti
06:46Tertia System.
06:47He also taught me knife fighting.
06:49And I also learned from the Sioxx.
06:53And I also learned from Aegis Lutti and Latter-Days.
06:57And they all had something to offer.
07:00But basically, my main knife system comes from the Lacosta, the Ilostrisimo, the Bikiti Tertia System, the Bilbreo Lagusa System,
07:12Jack Santos, and obviously Max Cerminto.
07:17These are the main people that taught me knife fighting.
07:19And they all taught a little bit differently and stress different things and different elements with me.
07:25The training method in single dagger, double dagger, whether it was in the reverse position or in the heavy position.
07:33We call it the reverse position.
07:34And we call it the heavy position when the knife is up like this.
07:38But the training method is different.
07:39Most of us would train with a round stick, a dowel.
07:43And it would be 12 to 15 inches.
07:45And then it would be a flat wooden stick.
07:48And later on it became a metal dagger.
07:52But the cutting edge was filed out.
07:55And in the latter years we started to use everything from different types of plastic knives to different types of
08:01wooden knives to different types of aluminum knives.
08:05But in the beginning we used wooden sticks.
08:08And sometimes we would go to Chinatown and get these burning incense and light the incense and try to quick
08:17burn as to get the action of what it's really like.
08:23But each one was very unique in which they practiced.
08:28Some people would roll up a newspaper or a small magazine, tight roll it.
08:33And that would be the practice dagger when we sparred.
08:37Others would get a rolled up magazine.
08:40Some people used candles and see if you could break the candle on the person.
08:45So every Filipino martial art instructor that I trained under had a very unique way of training it.
08:52And I think it's all good.
08:55Later on I used to make my people spar with these felt pants and try and mark the t-shirt.
09:02So there are many ways.
09:03You're only limited by your own creativity and I think your own imagination.
09:08So what's the state of some things that I think are very important.
09:11You will have a person that attacks you from a tall position.
09:14He will either backhand, he will slash you here, slash you here and go over here.
09:18Or he will be in the slash position, he will thrust, thrust.
09:22So I'm going to do a simple first and show you step by step.
09:25If this is an overhead grip, you want to work to the inside position.
09:30There's a chance that you will be cut by the cutting edge here.
09:33So when you come, make sure you come here and you strip it.
09:37You can use this portion.
09:39Rare occasions you can use this little portion here.
09:42Okay, one more time.
09:43Notice on this side, notice how it fits the chest.
09:45This is stripped.
09:46You can sweep your body if you want to.
09:49But what I would like you to do, the first one here on the basics, hit, turn it, strip out.
09:56Also, there's sometimes a chance.
09:59When you're over here, you can stand side.
10:01You notice the body weight, you see how it comes in.
10:03And you take it out.
10:04The knee is very, very slow.
10:05This is the inside technique.
10:06See, in or in here, and then strip out.
10:10You do not have to go, understand when I'm around here, you can go up to the throat, but
10:14I don't have to go up to the bicep here.
10:16You don't have to go here.
10:17See, this is good enough.
10:18Let's see, move the body.
10:19And there, you can align here.
10:21But this is what we call the inside position.
10:24Okay?
10:25And then you can go here.
10:26You can use this portion.
10:28You do not always have to use this portion and this portion.
10:30So, from the standpoint of morality, I think this is good like that.
10:34You go here.
10:36You can move into any type of line.
10:39Okay?
10:39So, the first principle of this, on the overhead, is left hand in, turn the blade, go in, eject
10:46one more time.
10:48Go in, return it, strip it.
10:51Now, you can hold onto the blade and keep it, or you can strip it here.
11:00Immediately, this now goes into an empty hand type of situation.
11:04Okay?
11:04The other position now is overhead.
11:06It goes overhead here.
11:07Notice where this is referred to as the can opener.
11:10I'll do this three times.
11:12Notice when it comes over, you come in, you strip it.
11:16Okay, last time for the can opener, one, two, or two, two, and strip it.
11:22If your skill is good, in route, you can do it slowly.
11:25See how it goes in?
11:27I'll do it very slow again.
11:28You're going to go in route.
11:29This is still outside.
11:31Again, right here.
11:34In route.
11:37Now, a lot of times your left hand, when you're here, you'll have to go in and you force it
11:42here.
11:43The position here, see, the blade is going to come out.
11:46Very slow again.
11:47One.
11:48I move here to the outside.
11:50Again, a lot of times I can't do this.
11:52So, you bring it back to this position, using your elbow, and you take it out.
11:57And there you can go into kicking, striking, elbowing, kneeing, punching.
11:59You can almost go into any martial art after a weapon of your contract.
12:03Okay, again, see, your left hand is in.
12:05Your right hand goes out.
12:07You move in.
12:08It's possible that you won't get out.
12:10Okay, one more time.
12:12Okay.
12:13You're in.
12:13You come out.
12:15You strip it.
12:16Okay.
12:17Now, sometimes the left hand is out, like that.
12:20And when you're coming in this position, you want to drop body weight.
12:23See?
12:24The dropping of the body weight helps you off balance the person.
12:29This is what I'm doing right now.
12:30The body weight, because right here, it's just only arm strength.
12:33As if I go to my knees, I'm using my whole body weight here, and the hand can come back
12:38to this point.
12:39Okay.
12:39One more time slowly.
12:41Okay.
12:41This is the body weight position here.
12:43I pull and bite over here and extract it and come back to this position.
12:49This is now for this attack over here, coming either from the vertical, okay, coming from the diagonal.
12:57Sometimes, on a rare occasion, you're going to scoop it.
13:00The hand will be here.
13:01I'm sorry.
13:04Okay.
13:04So, this hand again, see?
13:06It goes here.
13:08You have a choice.
13:10Once you follow suit here and you go to the eye, you can extract it.
13:14Keep this.
13:15And you move to this position in the bar.
13:17One more time, very slowly.
13:19Okay.
13:19So, when you come to this position, notice where the left hand might score.
13:22Notice where the right hand might score.
13:24And you hold it here.
13:25If there's enough space, take it out.
13:26Slash.
13:27And you come to this position.
13:29Again, very, very slow, okay?
13:30You skip.
13:31You come to this position.
13:33You strip it.
13:34Fingers.
13:35Hand.
13:36Remove to this position.
13:38All right.
13:38Now, there's a couple of things I want you to recognize over here.
13:42When you scoop it sometimes, sometimes he will come back this way.
13:47You follow the flow.
13:49One more time.
13:50See, if I scoop it here, he might come back this way.
13:53He's going to slash me this way.
13:54So, you stop it.
13:55When you turn your body, see?
13:57The hand's going to be on like this.
13:59Okay.
14:00One more time.
14:00Very, very slow.
14:01So, if he comes here and he scoops it to here and slashes it, that's what it's going to
14:05be.
14:06He's going to come back here.
14:07Come back to that position.
14:09All right.
14:09Now, this is very important here.
14:12Sometimes a blade is on that position.
14:15You want to curl it.
14:16You want to bend this so it comes toward the person and then strip.
14:20See?
14:20It's still the same basic.
14:22You can turn it all the way around if you want and do as many, as numerous of the things
14:26you can do.
14:27Okay?
14:28So, again, sometimes you stop it.
14:31Sometimes you hit.
14:32You scoop it.
14:33And then you can either take it here or here or here.
14:37If you look closely, once you stop this position with the left hand and I scoop here, you can
14:43strike here, but I'm coming off the radius here.
14:45See?
14:46One is here.
14:47That's one ejection.
14:49If he turns the corner on that, see?
14:51I won't have anything here.
14:53So, this is your second ejection.
14:56Okay?
14:56Your third ejection, if I come to this position and I can't do it here and I can't do it
15:01here,
15:02if you cut your hand like that, take it out.
15:06One more time to get slower, okay?
15:08So, the first one I showed you is what we refer to as a kunci.
15:12It does not work out here.
15:14You satisfy your half pajamas and you have to put it in like that and take it out.
15:18Okay?
15:18One more time on the kunci.
15:20The kunci is your right hand is up.
15:22You stop it.
15:23It must be spaced here.
15:24If it's out here, it doesn't work as efficient.
15:26So, you want to bend the wrist right about here and strip it.
15:30Okay?
15:30If you stop it with the left hand, see, you come on the bottom hand, you strike it,
15:36you kick it to this position, and you peel it off.
15:38One more time to race slowly, see?
15:40Stop the force, ride the force, either strip it here, or strip it here, or strip it here,
15:47or take the person down from that position.
15:50Okay?
15:50Now, the other thing that I think is very, very important is what we call buhaya, or the crocodile.
15:55Your hand is like this.
15:56And when you bring it down, see when I let me in, how do I do that?
16:01One more time.
16:02You notice that the right hand is on the top.
16:04So, when I swing it, see?
16:06It might be going to be ejected to that position.
16:08Excuse me.
16:12Okay.
16:13Come on, hold on.
16:14Okay.
16:15So, again, if you stop it here, see, you swing it.
16:19And usually I would use body weight for the training so you don't think that's what you're doing.
16:23You notice that when I body weight, see what happens to the body?
16:26Now, so this will usually go forward, okay?
16:29But for the purpose of showing it on the video here, the right hand is on top.
16:33You swing it, strip it, okay?
16:35Now, if you have the other buhaya with the back hands on the top, notice one hand is like this.
16:39So, you shoot it through.
16:41Okay?
16:41One time very slowly.
16:42You stop it.
16:44And sometimes you go like this.
16:45It won't go, but you just...
16:47All right.
16:48Now, any time it doesn't shoot forward like this, see, on the buhaya, that's when you turn
16:54it and shoot it off to the side.
16:55Okay?
16:56One more time.
16:57Plus, back, it won't work.
17:00So, you have to feel it.
17:02So, the first movement, if it doesn't go up, you turn your body, switch it off.
17:07Okay, last time.
17:08Okay?
17:09So, when you turn this body here, switch the body, switch it off.
17:13If it doesn't work, you move it.
17:21There's a lot of systems in Filipino knife fighting.
17:24Some are very good.
17:25Some are good.
17:26Some are average.
17:27But the majority of systems are good.
17:29And we teach by principle.
17:31So, in order to be a good defender against knife attacks, you yourself have to be somewhat
17:40understanding of the principles of knife fighting.
17:43It's not always possible to eject a knife.
17:45So, I'm going to start off with some principles as they teach it in the Lacoste system of a
17:51scream of Kali and Salat.
17:52A lot of times, to teach the empty hand skill on this particular movement here, sometimes
17:59when it hits over again, we teach the weapon first and then teach the ejection.
18:05So, this has here.
18:06This has here.
18:06You can use your imagination.
18:08There's only ways you can prevent it.
18:09So, now notice that my grip is down.
18:11So, one method is to go backhand into this position, turn it so the blade won't cut you
18:17here, and eject it.
18:19Okay.
18:19One more time again.
18:21Okay.
18:21This will, of course, change the complexion of the game.
18:25Okay.
18:25Now, some people, rather than the thrust of the backhand, they like to slash up.
18:32And when they slash up, they put it on the top and the ejection is here.
18:35One more time again.
18:36Okay.
18:37Now, I know showing this, a lot of people, I have to wrestle with my own consciousness in
18:44showing you a material like this.
18:45But, I'm sure that everybody will use this in what I call proper morality.
18:51I don't want to ever have knife fighting and glorifying knife fighting as things for
18:55people to do.
18:57But, in a situation, if you have a situation, sometimes it is appropriate to use it because
19:04it's your last resort.
19:05Okay.
19:05This teaches the empty hand skills.
19:08So, again, you have one that goes here.
19:10Okay.
19:11One that goes into the armpit.
19:13One that comes, strikes here.
19:15One that slashes either forehand or slashes backhand.
19:20Then you peel it here.
19:21The peel and the extraction of this weapon here could be on the bottom when you strip it.
19:27Or, it could be on the top when you strip it.
19:31It doesn't matter.
19:32Okay.
19:33Now, sometimes you will have a knife this way.
19:36When it's this way, you always can go, the basis is still the same.
19:41You notice closely here, the basis is still the same.
19:44Whether I go into a vital spot like this, or I go into another spot that's vital, it doesn't
19:50matter.
19:51The basics will still be the same no matter what you hold in your hand.
19:56Okay.
19:57For instance, in this position over here, okay, when you deliver this shot and it's more vertical,
20:05you're going to cup it.
20:07You'll notice that this will go into the armpit.
20:10These are the principles that when you do an empty hand, we always practice.
20:15Or, in here, we can go in rally.
20:21You notice again, you notice again, it is in rally.
20:25Sometimes, we go here to disturb the base.
20:29In rally.
20:31Okay?
20:32The position here, it doesn't matter what you use in your hand.
20:36Because you're still going to either come inside, like this, and strip it.
20:41You're either going to go outside and strip it.
20:46And, sometimes, you might even go inside this way, here, and strip it.
20:51That is the same strip as if you hold it down.
20:54So, no matter what you hold in your hand, let's say it comes, again, overhead.
20:58See?
20:59You notice I did this now with the empty hand.
21:01That is the same principle.
21:02Whether I get here and strip it, or I throw it here and I come on the top.
21:08Whether I hold an implement like this and take it out.
21:11It's just a pump can break it, a pump can be used.
21:15When you strike it, you're here, here, strip it.
21:18All right?
21:20So, the principle here, no matter what we hold in our hand, the principle is the same.
21:25You can do these principles even if you're holding a foot or a butt.
21:31You see, the principle is still the same.
21:35All right?
21:36Again, slow motion.
21:37If I come here, notice I hit here, but at the same time, I hit here.
21:41So, you're here.
21:41Okay?
21:42So, when you come to this position and you hack it here, if you do this motion,
21:48if you have a bandwagon in this position, okay, it is still the same basis, see?
21:54So, no matter what you're holding in your hand.
21:57Now, it is very possible you might hold two implements.
22:02It could be two pins.
22:04If you notice, mostly, one pin is stripping.
22:07See?
22:08You have one here.
22:10So, your pin is an implement that you can use.
22:14Okay?
22:14If you go to the bottom, see?
22:17This is on the bottom.
22:18You see it strips?
22:20But still the same basis being used.
22:22Because you can use it this way, this way.
22:25See?
22:25I'm going to turn back.
22:26All those movements can be used.
22:28Okay?
22:29This is an effective weapon.
22:30Even if you don't disarm, if you just go one, two, that might be enough.
22:34So, the next blow will probably be this way.
22:36That's okay, too, because you're going to strip it.
22:41You can have a pin off, or you can throw one.
22:44You can do a throw.
22:46You can use this as a projectile weapon.
22:49Many different variations.
22:51So, all the movements that we teach.
22:54If you backhand, this motion here.
22:56If you backhand, see?
22:57That's why we go here.
22:59And it's still...
23:00That's the principle.
23:01See?
23:01If you backhand with a slash here, see?
23:05You go under the tunnel, like this.
23:07Over here.
23:08You go to the top.
23:10You clip it here.
23:11Still the same basis that I got to use.
23:14So, whether your weapon is...
23:15We refer to it as the single-edged or double-edged.
23:18It doesn't matter.
23:19So, this is now what we refer to as the earth grip versus the heavy grip.
23:25As opposed to the earth grip versus the earth grip.
23:28If you come to this position here.
23:30And you are now in the earth grip.
23:33And he's backhand in this position here.
23:35You notice the switch there.
23:36It will be here.
23:38Okay.
23:38Let me do this slow so you can see.
23:39Notice the stoppage is here.
23:42Notice the ride of the ninth.
23:44See?
23:44And he ejects in this position.
23:47Okay?
23:47Again, slowly.
23:49Okay?
23:49When you move to this position here, okay?
23:51You stop.
23:53You ride under this way.
23:55Or you ride outside this way.
23:57You come under.
23:59Straight.
24:00See?
24:00Raise it.
24:01Turn it.
24:02So you drive.
24:04These are the movements.
24:05Now, if your left hand is on the top of the backhand's it, you strike here.
24:09See?
24:10You distill it.
24:11Okay?
24:12This is why when we do this technique.
24:15See?
24:16It's the same.
24:17Because we follow the movement of the ninth.
24:20Okay?
24:20One more time again.
24:21Slow.
24:22Come up here, please.
24:23Okay?
24:24So, you tap.
24:25See?
24:25This could be in the armpit.
24:26Notice how ejected.
24:28See?
24:28But if I don't have the left hand, it's the same principle.
24:32You can headbutt.
24:33You can knee.
24:33You can elbow.
24:34Swipe.
24:35The follow-up are numerous things that you can do.
24:38But it's important that we realize that the motion of the hand follows the motion of the blade.
24:45Okay, let's take a great comment on this.
24:47A great comment.
24:48Sometimes you are in this position.
24:50And the hook for us is high.
24:53So if you're single-edged, you can sometimes smash into it.
24:57If you're single-edged, sometimes you can scoop.
25:00He's going to come to this position.
25:01Notice how I cut here.
25:03I move here.
25:04One time again.
25:05So you can just see.
25:07So when the scoop comes to this position here slowly.
25:09One.
25:10And he scoops to that side.
25:11Two.
25:12There's a cut here.
25:13See?
25:13The hand is going to be.
25:15Okay?
25:17You'll do it again.
25:18Sometimes I was banging his hand here like this.
25:21At the point here, he's going to come to that position.
25:24See?
25:24The hand is going to be here.
25:26You do not have to go to the net.
25:28I was always taught that when they come to this position here, this is more of a war up here.
25:33Okay?
25:34This is more of a self-defense.
25:36If you scoop it here like that.
25:38Any scoops here?
25:39You shoot it here.
25:40He keeps it in this position again when we're done.
25:43One.
25:43If you come to that position, you go back here.
25:46So it's just here.
25:47But moving over here, as you do it, okay?
25:51Slowly.
25:51You can handle how it catches here.
25:53My left hand is on the top.
25:54So I come here on the right hand.
25:56You can see how this fatal is coming up to the net.
25:58Then you can put it in the fingers.
26:01So all you want to throw.
26:03But sometimes when you're in this position and you scoop here and he comes to this position.
26:08This time it's the left hand, right?
26:11Otherwise, your reaction time when he scoops it, it will be with your right hand.
26:16So you go like this and you scoop your left hand.
26:18Okay?
26:18One more time again so you can see this here.
26:20Okay?
26:22When you move this hand here, okay?
26:24When it's on the high line and you came to this position, see my hand, it goes here.
26:29It can go directly to here and then go to this position.
26:33Okay?
26:33So there are many different ways you can do this.
26:35This is when you receive with the right, receive with the left, come back, take it out.
26:41Okay?
26:42Receive with the right, receive with the right, so you can go here and strip it here and take it
26:46out of this position.
26:47Now, in the event that you have no weapon, if you scoop it, I receive with my left.
26:57And he scoops it again, see, and you see with the right, see, same thing.
27:01Back.
27:02Whatever you want to do, you can do.
27:04Because it doesn't matter what you use in your hand, as I said before.
27:09Sometimes, if you have a chance and he scoops, you can go directly to the scoop like this and go
27:14here.
27:15Or, you can go directly to the throw, then scoop, then go here, and then take it out of this
27:20position.
27:21Okay?
27:21Many different variations.
27:22Or, you can use a Pakal position here, here, and take it out of this position.
27:27So you can use many different variations of that.
27:30That is why when we learn it, we learn it with a single weapon first, and then we learn it
27:34with a double weapon.
27:35And in some systems, like Picasso, we learn it first with a double, which means we learn it like this.
27:41See, you want Pakal, and then scoop, you go one.
27:44Two, see, three.
27:47Strip, six, seven, eight, or whatever he comes in the concept.
27:52These are just some of the principles that I like to go through.
27:56I was always told by Lacosta not to teach knife fighting.
28:00He says, go ahead and teach the double stick.
28:03Because it will translate into double sword.
28:05When we say sword, it's what they call the long knife, because the sword is only like 30 inches long,
28:10or 26 inches long, or 36 inches long.
28:13Possibly 42 inches long.
28:16But in the beginning, they said it's okay to teach double sword, and single sword, and single stick, and double
28:22stick, and stick and dagger, or sword and dagger, and sword and shield.
28:26Or what we call staff in the left hand, sword on the right hand.
28:30Or sometimes we had the reverse.
28:33We put the staff in the right hand, and simulate a shield or diamond on the left hand.
28:39But it's funny, because when it came to teaching, actually, the knife, in and of itself, they frowned upon it.
28:46And a lot of times when I wrote my first book, they said, please don't put in knife techniques.
28:51Because there's a morality in it.
28:52He says, you don't want to popularize this, and you don't want to make this person like the three musketeers,
28:59as they said.
29:00And he says, you don't want to glorify that.
29:02I think that's what they want to mean, not to glorify knife fighting.
29:05So they were very pushy on that end, not to expose knife fighting.
29:12It was taught as a very serious part of the training.
29:16But there are things that you don't know who, or what the morality of the person you're teaching.
29:20So when you teach the knife, make sure that he is at a very high level, and make sure that
29:24his morality, make sure that no one's perfect, but make sure that his morality is very high.
29:29Because knife fighting in itself, even if you put a knife in an untrained man, he's very, very dangerous.
29:35A man with a knife is very, very hard to deal with.
29:38In boxing, you can afford to take one or two or three shots.
29:42Kick boxing or Muay Thai, you can afford to take a kick here, a punch here.
29:45But in knife fighting, one cut, one slash, one thrust, you know, that could be it.
29:53And therefore, they considered whoever I'd pass on the art to and pass on the knowledge that it was for
30:03the best possible reason, and to make sure that the person was of my morality.
30:09You can use any numbering system.
30:11We use seven numbering systems at our academy.
30:14For the person who's in the instruction, I'm going to use the Likasa system, the numbering system, which he himself
30:19has several numbering systems.
30:21And later on, you can feed it randomly.
30:24Okay, so the number one blow or the number one slash, number one is on the juggera.
30:29That's one.
30:30And number two is on the juggera or karate.
30:32That's two.
30:33Three, on this side here, is the small intestine.
30:38And four is the large intestine.
30:41Five is to the abdominal.
30:42Six can be to the chest, to the throat, or the eye.
30:47Seven can be here.
30:48These are the areas you want to protect.
30:51And eight, which sometimes they call the zipper, can be anything from here to the lip, to here, to this
30:58position.
30:59Nine is usually at the femoral.
31:01And 11 and 12 are the uppercut to those lines.
31:05And then we also have a horizontal, high horizontal, three, and a 14.
31:10And then the zipper on this side here.
31:12Then the reverse slash, number two, and the uppercut.
31:16But in the beginning, we stay with the first 12 numbers.
31:18When you practice with a partner, you should practice with different blades.
31:22I highly recommend that you use a training blade.
31:25Do not use the real knife.
31:26If you use a real knife, dull the blade.
31:29So you should practice with a single edge, which is one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10,
31:3911, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and then 17 is the uppercut.
31:45These are the basic ones.
31:46You should practice with many types of training blades that can be metal.
31:50And I feel this is practice even with the rubber blades, single edge or double edge.
31:55This is still the angle one, angle two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, high three,
32:04high four, vertical one, reverse two, and uppercut with the number five.
32:11Okay, these are the bent.
32:12And the same token, it should be done in the reverse position also when you train.
32:17See, this is five, this is reverse, these are what we call tears.
32:21Okay, so down here, uppercut and uppercut.
32:24Again, very slowly.
32:26See, that's angle one, angle two, angle three, angle four, angle five, angle six, disengage, angle seven.
32:34Rip with this.
32:35That's the tear.
32:36The uppercut line, uppercut and thrust, thrust.
32:40And this is what we call the rip.
32:42Turn and uppercut.
32:43Because a lot of times when your body's out, see, well, let them use this.
32:46See, if you let them up here or here, you want to be able to turn.
32:49So this is, we use this as a numbering system.
32:51And we learn of the knife system in the left and in the right.
32:56Again, I want to emphasize that you're not glorifying knife fighting.
33:00Knife fighting is ugly.
33:02It is terrible.
33:03And it should only be used in self-defense.
33:06And in order to beat a person in the hand with a knife, you yourself should be exposed to every
33:12nasty trick that's out there in a knife fighting.
33:14Okay?
33:15So again, I would recommend even training with a smaller blade.
33:19A blade could be anything like that.
33:21This is a wooden.
33:21Wooden is good.
33:22It's safe.
33:23Just be careful with splinters.
33:24And I still, again, just practicing 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14,
33:3415, 16, and 17.
33:37Okay?
33:38And you'll notice with a smaller blade, you'll be harder at this large.
33:44Okay?
33:44This is wooden.
33:45Do the same thing because it's hard to see.
33:49And this is a general knife.
33:51Of course, I'd like to show you.
33:53This is also good for the trainer, so he knows all the different angles, what to feed.
33:58Okay?
33:59This is very, very important, I feel.
34:01Okay?
34:02So if you train a person, always start slow.
34:06So when he learns to respond, see?
34:08See 2.
34:09See?
34:10This is angle 3, slowly.
34:12And 4.
34:12Notice how slow I'm going.
34:14So he learns to correct this 6 and 7.
34:17What's the zipper?
34:18This is going to come right through here.
34:209, 10, 11, 12.
34:22Uppercut.
34:23Now the 13 is going to be here, see?
34:2614 is here.
34:27The 15, you have to be very careful.
34:28The 16 is the reverse.
34:29And then uppercut on the 17.
34:32This is very important.
34:33If you were using the reverse grip, this is angle 1.
34:37This is angle 2.
34:38This is angle 3.
34:39This is 4.
34:40And I pump it once, twice.
34:42Notice I disengage.
34:43You get the 7, okay?
34:45And I rip with this.
34:46See?
34:46The option here.
34:47Then I uppercut.
34:49I uppercut.
34:49I uppercut with this.
34:50I uppercut.
34:51Now notice what I'm coming now.
34:52Okay?
34:53I rip here.
34:54So he has to defend against that.
34:55See?
34:55I rip with this hand here.
34:56And I switch the base here like this.
34:58Notice how he moves away and zones away.
35:00And then you start off in the floor.
35:02So this is very, very important.
35:06Okay?
35:06What we're going to do right now is just familiarize you with how to strip at the back.
35:12And it is best to strip on the backhand side.
35:16Okay?
35:16Then you strip.
35:18So what I want you to become accustomed to is sometimes he might thrust and he might slash
35:24through or scoop through.
35:25Okay?
35:26And then you come back to this position.
35:28Or at the low line here.
35:31He might thrust here.
35:33He might scoop it.
35:34He might tack it to this position.
35:36You cut through here.
35:37And then you strip it through here.
35:40Or.
35:42He might do the center thrust, which is here.
35:44You want to accustom yourself to those positions here.
35:47And then take it out.
35:49And then you come back in bargain position.
35:52Or.
35:53He might slash.
35:54And you might still have to right it through like that.
35:56Because you come here.
35:57Slash.
35:58And then strip.
36:01Or.
36:02The slash.
36:03Can be here.
36:05And he might come to this position.
36:07And you want to thrust.
36:09And then take out.
36:10And control.
36:10These are very, very important positions that you have to have.
36:14So we're going to do it very slow.
36:16So the first attack that I want is the high thrust.
36:20Use out to here.
36:21You can do any disarm.
36:23And then.
36:25The second attack will be the hook thrust.
36:27Just here.
36:28You're going to slash or back out.
36:31Take it.
36:32Get it back.
36:32And keep it.
36:33Okay.
36:34The next attack will be the thrust.
36:36At the midsection.
36:37Back to here.
36:38And he'll keep it.
36:39And take it out.
36:41Alright.
36:41The next attack will be the slash.
36:43That will be the slash.
36:44In the beginning it's good to widen up the motion.
36:47And then narrow it down.
36:48Because it's not going to be like that.
36:50Okay.
36:51And the other one will be the slash here.
36:54And you have to thrust.
36:55Okay.
36:56Most people.
36:57If they come from the forehand side.
37:00They're going to do two things.
37:01They're going to either thrust it.
37:03Okay.
37:04Or he will either slash it.
37:06And that's all you have to get used to.
37:08Okay.
37:08Again.
37:09If he comes from this side.
37:10Whether it's a thrust or a slash.
37:12He's going to come back in that position.
37:13He'll slash it back.
37:15Okay.
37:16He'll come back in that position.
37:17Or.
37:18He will.
37:19When he comes in this position.
37:21Thrust it back.
37:23But you're going to have the same thing.
37:25If the knife does not come out.
37:26Or does it eject.
37:27You can continue with the flow.
37:28For instance.
37:29If I come here.
37:30And I start to go here.
37:32And it doesn't come out.
37:33For some odd reason.
37:34He just continues the flow of the knife.
37:36In any pattern.
37:37Horizontal thrust.
37:39You can get to position.
37:40Anytime there is a failure.
37:42In any kind of ejection of the weapon.
37:44Like that.
37:45You continue to flow here.
37:46And back.
37:48But if you can't.
37:49Always into this position.
37:50Here.
37:51And back.
37:53The same scenario is very very important.
37:55If I have a knife.
37:59And I start again.
38:00And he has no weapon.
38:01So you have two methods.
38:04Right now.
38:04At the inside line.
38:05One is called cover and hit.
38:08Both hands are going to come out.
38:09And then you scoot.
38:11Alright.
38:12Another method.
38:14Will be to ride up.
38:15With this hand here.
38:17And then you come out.
38:19Okay.
38:20So let's look at this.
38:21If he covers and hits.
38:23And I tap it.
38:24He's going to disarm this line here.
38:26Okay.
38:27If I slash here.
38:29See.
38:30And I come to this position.
38:31He brings it back.
38:32And takes it out.
38:33If I do the center thrust here.
38:36And takes it out.
38:37Okay.
38:38Now.
38:38A lot of times.
38:39I will slash here.
38:41And he might scoop it.
38:42Now.
38:42When he comes back to this position.
38:44Take it out.
38:45Okay.
38:46So again.
38:47Now.
38:47If I slash up.
38:48Using this motion here.
38:49I'm slashing up.
38:50And I come back in here.
38:52He's going to take it back.
38:54These are all different variables.
38:56That a person should acquaint with.
38:58Or if I do a weapon.
38:59So if I put anything in his hand.
39:00He should be able to do the same thing.
39:02Okay.
39:03Another most common one.
39:04Is that he might take twice.
39:06He might take once here.
39:08Twice here.
39:08And then.
39:09He might come up a third time.
39:10And then he might have to take it.
39:11At the fourth motion.
39:13Okay.
39:13If you bring it down.
39:15To this position again.
39:16This slow motion.
39:17From there.
39:18If you notice his hand is here.
39:20He's cupping it here.
39:21Okay.
39:21And then.
39:23He can keep the weapon.
39:25Or.
39:26He can strip the weapon.
39:28From this position.
39:30Go for logical view.
39:32Okay.
39:33One more time.
39:34So no matter if I take once.
39:36Twice.
39:36Three times.
39:37Four times.
39:38Five times.
39:38Five times.
39:39This is very important.
39:40Because this exercise here.
39:41Reflex.
39:42Is now going to develop.
39:44This reflex.
39:44Because you can know.
39:45A hundred techniques.
39:47But if you don't have a reflex.
39:49You will not be able to do it.
39:50So we call this reflex training.
39:53And see the hand position.
39:54Where I'm going at.
39:55And we start off.
39:55The trainer.
39:56I'm the trainer.
39:57And I'm going.
39:58I would say.
39:58Watch my left hand.
40:00Watch my left hand.
40:02Okay.
40:02Watch me sleep up.
40:03See.
40:04You just saw.
40:04Now.
40:04When I switch the body like that.
40:06See.
40:06I can come back to here.
40:08Yeah.
40:09I can switch to his hand here.
40:10I can use my left hand.
40:12So his left hand.
40:13Is being educated.
40:14And his right hand.
40:15And he's looking at me all the time.
40:17Usually when I train the person.
40:18I say.
40:18Watch the blade.
40:19And I say.
40:20Watch my left hand.
40:21See.
40:21Because I want him to realize the left hand.
40:23See how I can possibly cut the hand here.
40:26Okay.
40:26If you move back over here.
40:27So this way.
40:28I'm constantly talking.
40:29Because I'm the trainer.
40:31Okay.
40:31Even if I get cut.
40:32This is very realistic.
40:33I might step up.
40:34Break the rhythm.
40:35I might enter the rhythm again.
40:37Come back.
40:37This is a training method.
40:38And you have to have a training method.
40:39Right?
40:40You notice one time.
40:41If I go like this.
40:41It's like slash.
40:42I remember where.
40:43I move down.
40:45Yeah.
40:45Somebody move it again.
40:46See what I hit you here.
40:47Because in reality.
40:48You want to hit as much as you're defending.
40:52And then I think this is important.
40:53If I let's say I cut him here.
40:54I'll do it again.
40:55I'll go with the sword.
40:56And when I cut through there.
40:57I'll move behind him all the way.
40:59Yeah.
40:59See that way he understands where the weakness would be.
41:03A lot of times I will fake high and punch low.
41:05See.
41:06So when I go like this.
41:07If I fake high and low throw.
41:08Now he gets you ready for it.
41:09See.
41:10And if I.
41:11Well I fake high and low.
41:11And I'll say now disarm.
41:13See.
41:13See.
41:14That way you're constantly talking to your student.
41:17And developing and reflexing.
41:18Because I think this is so important.
41:20In the training.
41:21You have to have communication between trainers.
41:24You cannot make this person.
41:25A person.
41:27Very efficient.
41:28If you don't have a reflex drill.
41:30A reflex drill.
41:31Is probably 80% as important.
41:34As the technique of itself.
41:36Because if you cannot respond.
41:37To this motion like that.
41:39See.
41:39Because a lot of times.
41:40If I go half motion here.
41:42He has to wait for the motion here.
41:43See.
41:44That.
41:44So if they're not getting it.
41:45We slow it down.
41:46We go fake.
41:47Move.
41:48See.
41:48Now he's getting used to it.
41:49Now if he's used to the first fake.
41:52He's getting used to it.
41:53Then I find value in this position here.
41:55Fake.
41:56He's getting used to it.
41:58See.
41:58So it's like.
41:59When you learn any skill.
42:00You want to go very very slow.
42:02And then pick up the speed.
42:04And go a little bit harder.
42:05On the.
42:06Like in the beginning.
42:07I would just recommend.
42:08Just barely touching his stomach like that.
42:10See.
42:11But making him move to know.
42:13Now see how his angle is now.
42:14How he changed the angle.
42:15Now because when my hand is like this.
42:17You will compute him from this side.
42:19When he touches on this side here.
42:20You're computing the move.
42:21To that position before he can take.
42:23So he can take the right body efficiently.
42:25Okay.
42:26Again.
42:27When you start the flow training.
42:29This is the flow training that I want.
42:31Now you see.
42:31Again.
42:32I over exaggerated in the beginning.
42:34So you can see how the two comes here.
42:35And the three.
42:37And the four.
42:38See.
42:38And the five.
42:39Now this is the Lacoste's system.
42:42And the eight.
42:43See.
42:43The nine is at the decap.
42:45And then eleven and twelve are up again.
42:46Repeat that very slowly.
42:48This is defending.
42:49Angle one of the Lacoste's system.
42:50The angle two is here.
42:51Angle three is here.
42:53Angle four is here.
42:54Angle five is here.
42:55Six is here.
42:56Seven is here.
42:57Eight is tricky.
42:58Because it comes down here.
42:59Nine is at the decap.
43:00Ten is at the decap.
43:01Eleven and twelve are at the uppercut line.
43:04That's the Lacoste's system of feeding it.
43:06And then you can feed at random.
43:10Let me try to explain this to you.
43:11And I'd like to show you what to use the very cost of here.
43:15How we teach our team.
43:16Remember, in order to better deal with a knife fighter, you yourself must have to be a knife fighter.
43:24At long range knife fighting, we don't use the rear hand.
43:28We just slash with that.
43:30At middle range and close quarter, whether we hold this in the call position, which is this position here.
43:36Or whether we hold it in the long end position, which we hold the position like this.
43:40Right?
43:41When we use that left hand here, that's just slash.
43:44So the reason why we're doing this right now is to accustom the person to the angles of fluctuation in
43:50knife fighting.
43:51So right now I'm going to use the Regino Illustrational System of knife fighting.
43:55I'm going to mix it with the Lacoste and the Little Rayo and the Bikini Tertial System of knife fighting.
44:00They're all good systems.
44:01And really it's the individual.
44:03So this is the purpose to be aware of the different line that you can be attacked with and to
44:09find out the range and distance of the knife.
44:12Okay?
44:13So if you have a student here, you have him do the scissor motion with the slash.
44:18Okay?
44:19Again, slash.
44:20And he thrusts.
44:21Now I'm going to get horizontal.
44:24I'm going to hit horizontal.
44:26I'm going to back that down.
44:27I'm going to thrust.
44:28I'm going to do the uppercut.
44:30I do the uppercut and the thrust.
44:33And then I'm going to have to stretch.
44:35One more time.
44:36So we take this very, very slow.
44:38We're going to do it three times.
44:40So the first one is diagonal slash.
44:42Notice that I'm not trying to make a miss.
44:44I just want to touch it.
44:45Come back to that position.
44:47Thrust.
44:48I'm going to do two uppercuts.
44:49When he comes into here, you can use any disarm.
44:52He's going to slash.
44:53Thrust here and eject.
44:55Okay?
44:57Again.
44:58Third time.
44:59Okay?
44:59Now he slashes.
45:01And thrust.
45:02Slash and thrust.
45:04Slash and thrust.
45:05Slash and thrust.
45:06Slash and thrust.
45:07This is the first thing we talked about.
45:10And then he's going to disarm it.
45:11And eject.
45:13All right.
45:14Now, that position here is what we call heaven position.
45:18We call it lani.
45:20Now this is what we call duta or yuta position.
45:23Or pakal position.
45:25Any system in the Philippines has a different name.
45:28Okay?
45:28So now, notice he will slash and thrust with the backhand.
45:33And back to here.
45:34And down.
45:35The target he chooses at the first stage of the disarmament and throttle is backhand.
45:40Now I'm going to come up here.
45:40Now I'm listening to the flash up.
45:42And eject.
45:44We're going to do this two more times so you can watch closely what's happening.
45:47Okay?
45:48Come up here closely.
45:49See, that's one.
45:50See?
45:51That's a two.
45:52Horizontal.
45:53And I die on the tap.
45:55A midsection thrust.
45:57An uppercut thrust.
45:58And up with the thrust.
46:00And the thrust.
46:01And then eject.
46:03Last time.
46:04Okay?
46:05Now, we'll get slowly.
46:07Slash and thrust.
46:09Slash and thrust.
46:10Slash and thrust.
46:11Slash and thrust.
46:13Slash and thrust.
46:14Slash and thrust.
46:15Slash and thrust.
46:17And come up.
46:18And here.
46:19Inject.
46:20You notice closely now.
46:22I'm going to substitute this weapon.
46:24By coming over here.
46:25And giving him some sort of tool.
46:27This could be a stick.
46:29It could be anything.
46:30I'll place it in his hand.
46:32And he will have a choice of using a stick like this.
46:36Or like this.
46:37Or placing it in the middle.
46:39This could be any implement that you can think of.
46:42Okay?
46:42And the same way now.
46:43Because it doesn't cut now.
46:45He might want to hit the radial nerve.
46:48And back.
46:50One.
46:50See?
46:50Two.
46:51Three.
46:53Four.
46:54Five.
46:55Six.
46:56Seven.
46:57Eight.
46:59And eject.
47:01One.
47:02Now I'm going to change this object again.
47:05I'm going to give him a pen.
47:06Because I want you to see where this comes about.
47:09Okay?
47:09So now he can use this pen many different ways.
47:12It can be open.
47:13It can be closed.
47:14We'll move over here.
47:15And then we start again.
47:16One.
47:16See?
47:17Two.
47:17Now notice this draw now.
47:19It's just giving you a little extension.
47:22Back in this position.
47:23Back in this position.
47:24And he's going to thrust.
47:25And eject.
47:27Now I'm going to give him another tool.
47:29Because he has to learn how to adapt.
47:32Now sometimes the tool that I get him.
47:34It can be a clipboard.
47:35It can be a skateboard.
47:36It can be anything.
47:37Go on with the better.
47:38Okay?
47:38Now this man he's going to hit.
47:40See?
47:40Half.
47:41Okay?
47:41Two.
47:42Three.
47:43Now he's not going to go like this.
47:44This is a training method.
47:46When I say a training method.
47:48This is just going to give this person a chance.
47:51Now he hits.
47:52And then he hits.
47:53And then he ejects it.
47:55Now.
47:56We now come to this position here.
47:58Well he will have no weapon.
48:00So this one now.
48:02He lets it go.
48:03He will pause it.
48:06And he's slashing here.
48:07Slashing hit.
48:09Slashing hit.
48:09Back.
48:10Hit.
48:10He's still protecting.
48:12He's going to try to swipe my face.
48:13And then that position here.
48:14He's going to strip it.
48:16One more time.
48:17We're going to do this really slow so you can see.
48:19He'll either scoop it or block it.
48:21Notice the first slash.
48:22I'm coming here.
48:23See that's a hit.
48:23He's going to scoop it.
48:24See?
48:25He might hit you here.
48:25I might tap it and get it here.
48:27See?
48:28Pack it.
48:28I might swipe it here and get it here.
48:31And then back and I tap it here.
48:32See?
48:33Alright.
48:33I might move to this position.
48:35I might uppercut.
48:36I might uppercut here.
48:38This is just a craning drill.
48:40I'm going to move it out.
48:41And into my body.
48:43Or strip it.
48:44Okay.
48:45Let's try this slowly again.
48:46Notice now he has an empty hand.
48:48Alright.
48:48Again very slow.
48:49See?
48:50Up here.
48:51The position.
48:52That's one.
48:53So he turns it in and scroops it.
48:55Okay.
48:55Notice how he taps it.
48:56So I might release it like this.
48:57And he scoops it down.
48:58There's it.
48:59Then I come back to this position.
49:01He might scroops and trap it.
49:02Back to this position.
49:03Scroops and trap it.
49:04Notice how he controls my body.
49:06Got it uppercut.
49:07Now watch again when I thrust.
49:09He strips it into my body.
49:11Or he can strip it immediately.
49:13And keep it.
49:14Okay?
49:15One more time very slow.
49:16Okay?
49:17So again.
49:18Any object can be held in your hand.
49:20It's better to hold an object in your hand.
49:21But let's say I hit again.
49:23Notice the cover here.
49:24And he scoops it.
49:25Notice the hit every time he moves.
49:26See?
49:27He might wipe it this way.
49:28Or he might tap it like this.
49:30And give the next line.
49:31See?
49:31What?
49:32Notice how he controls in here.
49:34See how he's hitting me here?
49:37Now I'm going to thrust.
49:39See?
49:39You try to put it in it right there.
49:42But for training right now.
49:43See?
49:43I let him go up to the eighth angle.
49:46And then hit.
49:46And then strip.
49:48Okay?
49:49These are the bases.
49:50As I said before.
49:51Any tool can be used.
49:53Let's say that we have.
49:55An object like this.
49:59Well the purpose is to demonstrate.
50:01So he doesn't hurt me.
50:02And I'm safe.
50:03Let's say he has an object like this.
50:05This could be a purse.
50:06Which I don't carry a purse.
50:07It could be a bag.
50:09But now you notice where the hip will be.
50:11It will be on my face.
50:13It will be on my hand.
50:14And while this is really not as efficient as a knife.
50:18It will still hurt.
50:19When you come back back.
50:20Pack.
50:21See?
50:22Same thing.
50:22You see how it hits my hand?
50:24The bottom.
50:25Just be careful that you don't strike the person here.
50:27Nice.
50:27Right here.
50:28Over here.
50:30Like that here.
50:31This will give you the range.
50:32And you can take it out.
50:33If you so desire.
50:34See?
50:34And strip it here.
50:37Okay.
50:37I'm going to break this down very slow.
50:39A lot of times if there's a slash here.
50:41And you have to come in.
50:42And you can hold.
50:44Some people are very strong.
50:45So you want to pull here.
50:46And extract.
50:47And notice closely.
50:48I'm using my forehand.
50:49I'll do it again.
50:50I'll do it three times.
50:51That's one.
50:52You bring it down.
50:53Two.
50:53And extract it.
50:55And put it in the forehand.
50:55Okay?
50:56Again.
50:57One.
50:58Two.
50:59Extract it with the forehand.
51:01Okay?
51:02Now if it's a slash.
51:03Sometimes you will enter on this side.
51:05And you're going to use your forehand.
51:07To flip.
51:09One more time again slowly.
51:10One.
51:11Two.
51:12You notice that one time I went on the inside.
51:15I brought it down to here.
51:17And I extracted the forehand.
51:19As the other time.
51:20I went out to the outside.
51:21And I extracted it.
51:23Either with my forehand.
51:25Or you can extract it with my tricep.
51:29Okay?
51:30All right?
51:31So again.
51:31Over here.
51:32If I switch it.
51:33You can extract it with the tricep.
51:36You can extract it with the forearm.
51:39Or you can keep it like this.
51:43And keep the blade.
51:44A lot of people when they come to this position.
51:46And they strip.
51:47See sometimes they will switch to this hand here.
51:49I'll do that slowly again.
51:51When I go like this.
51:52And they extract it with their hand.
51:54Sometimes they will put this into an inverse position.
51:57Sometimes they will put it into a backhand position.
52:00Okay?
52:00One more time.
52:01So you're either on the inside.
52:02Switch over.
52:03And out.
52:04These have to be very, very quick.
52:06Obviously.
52:07And the timing must be.
52:09Precisely.
52:09It's so important to do nice sparring.
52:11Because a nice sparring.
52:13Well actually.
52:14Okay.
52:15Any strike that comes from the number two angle like this.
52:19You want to bring it again.
52:20You still use the forearm.
52:22Or you use the tricep.
52:23There are some systems that use the inside of the thigh.
52:27There are some systems that use the outside of the thigh.
52:31My preference is not to use the thigh.
52:32Because you might stab yourself here.
52:35Possibly stab here if you miscalculate.
52:36But you use your tricep.
52:38Or on number two.
52:40On the angle like this.
52:41You pull.
52:42You put it back.
52:43That's right.
52:44You'll notice closely.
52:45If the knife is smaller.
52:47It becomes very hard to extract.
52:50Because the point is right here.
52:53The point of this.
52:54Unfortunately.
52:55You have to pull like this.
52:57And you won't have very much room here.
52:58So you want to run it.
52:59And extract it.
53:01But more than likely.
53:03This portion here will be the hardest to extract.
53:06The smaller the knife.
53:07The hardest to extract.
53:09Okay.
53:10Anytime you hit the three.
53:11It is best not to go on that side.
53:13See again.
53:15That's very hard to do.
53:17Because you have to kick it to the throat.
53:18And extract.
53:19However.
53:20Sometimes if you go across.
53:22You have to pass it.
53:23And now he'll come to that position.
53:25And sit back.
53:26You look closely again.
53:27On this side over here.
53:28If you pass it like that.
53:30You sweep.
53:31You come here.
53:32See.
53:33You eject it.
53:34You come to this side over here.
53:37Back.
53:37You pull it.
53:38Use the tricep.
53:40You eject it over here again.
53:42Slash it.
53:43Coming back here.
53:43And now I'm going to use my hand to have the knife come out.
53:47One more time again.
53:49For three points again.
53:50If you extract the blade.
53:51Okay.
53:52You can use your tricep.
53:53You can use your forearm.
53:55I perfectly do not like this.
53:57But there are some scissors to do that.
53:59And you can use your hand.
54:00These are the most common ways to extract the blade.
54:04On this pacal position.
54:05As I've explained before.
54:07You will get cut here.
54:09That is why important.
54:10Is to twist the blade.
54:11See how the blade is fit this way.
54:12So when you switch it.
54:13It will come out.
54:15If you had a choice between it in your chest and in your throat.
54:18Even if you get a little cut here.
54:19A little bit.
54:20If you twist.
54:20See.
54:21The blade is always here.
54:22And you can extract it with the hand itself.
54:24Okay.
54:25One more time again.
54:25See.
54:26Because it's going to be one and two.
54:28Okay.
54:28If you come back again for a review again.
54:31When you come to this position here.
54:33If you come around.
54:34You have to say anything.
54:36Okay.
54:38When you come here.
54:40And I scoop.
54:41I put in increments.
54:43That's one that goes down.
54:44That one that goes through.
54:46Make sure that you do not cut your edge.
54:49So use the forearm.
54:50And the third variation.
54:52Is this variation here.
54:54Okay.
54:55If the knife is close like that.
54:56You won't be able to do it.
54:58Feel it close here over here.
54:59It's very hard to get your hand in there.
55:01See.
55:01Sometimes you might reverse it now.
55:03Use it this way.
55:05Okay.
55:05One more time again.
55:06If the blade is tight.
55:07And you can't take it out here.
55:09Switch the blade out.
55:11Make sure you don't cut the edge here.
55:12Make sure it comes out.
55:13One more time.
55:14Okay.
55:15So if it's in tight like this.
55:16And you can't get it out.
55:18You switch your weight.
55:19Put the body weight.
55:20See how the body weight comes down.
55:21Then extract it like this.
55:23Anytime you cannot extract it.
55:25You go into the striking.
55:26And the hilly.
55:36Now there's a disarm here.
55:39If you take it here.
55:40One method is to strip it this way.
55:42And this again.
55:44If you hack.
55:44It goes in.
55:45See.
55:45You strip it.
55:47Sometimes when you slash here.
55:49You're going to ride it to this position.
55:52Insert.
55:54You clip it with the thumb and index finger.
55:57And you jack it.
55:58And hold on to it.
55:59Or you let it fly out.
56:01By stripping it.
56:03The other method.
56:04Which is commonly used.
56:05If you slash here.
56:07There's going to be a cut.
56:08Now you cut the strips.
56:10The third method.
56:12Is when you come in here.
56:13You go across.
56:14You hit the bone here.
56:15And you strip it on the right.
56:17Okay.
56:17I'll repeat again with the method.
56:20After you meet it.
56:21You cut it.
56:22You can strip it.
56:24And the next method.
56:25Which is common.
56:26You meet it.
56:26And you ride it.
56:27You clip it with the index finger.
56:29And the thumb.
56:31Eject it here.
56:33And the other method here.
56:35Is there's a cut right here.
56:37This will loosen up the grip.
56:38It's going to come out.
56:39The other method again.
56:41Will be here.
56:42And just going to be here.
56:42This will do something here.
56:44The hit on the right.
56:45The ball can be stripped.
56:47Conclusion on this tape.
56:48It's very important.
56:49That you practice in safety.
56:51I would recommend you wearing goggles.
56:54Wearing any kind of eye protective.
56:57So that you won't get poked the eye.
56:58Because you can have it.
56:58Particularly for beginners.
57:00They will poke the eye.
57:01And their control will be bad.
57:02I would recommend using blades.
57:05That will absolutely not cut.
57:07You want to shave it off.
57:08Or you want to use a training blade.
57:10With a plastic.
57:11Or wood.
57:12Or some material.
57:13That does not cut.
57:15Because we want safety.
57:16Safety.
57:17And handgun is the first thing we learned.
57:18Safety in knife fighting.
57:21Is very important.
57:23Because we don't want anyone hurt.
57:24On this tape.
57:25And again.
57:26I want to bring up.
57:27This is not the glorified knife fighting.
57:29This is the last resort.
57:30They would use knife fighting.
57:32To defend yourself.
57:33소nd.
57:40The last resort.
57:49The last resort.
57:57This is the last resort.
