Event Details

Gain essential skills to use your knife and/or defend against a knife in a lethal force encounter!

What you you will be doing this fast paced, highly interactive and hands-on course:

  • Legally using force to protect yourself or a third person
  • Understanding the force continuum
  • Making use of force decisions
  • Reviewing knife laws
  • Selecting an everyday carry knife
  • Carrying techniques
  • Drawing your knife
  • Gripping your knife
  • Opening your knife using various techniques
  • Cutting a practice target
  • Moving in and out of various ranges
  • Stepping and footwork drills
  • Practicing angles of attack
  • Performing alive hand / empty hand techniques
  • Activating pressure points with a closed knife
  • Defending against knife attacks
  • Deploying a firearm (airsoft) in Force-on-Force simulations
  • Using improvised weapons to counter knife attacks
  • Protecting anatomical targets
  • and More!

Please wear clothing that you typically wear on the street, including the same type of shoes. This is realistic training for the real world, not a gym or dojo!

Bring any (all) knives you normally carry, or intend to carry to class with you. While this course will primarily focus on the use of folding knives, we will be happy to discuss fixed blade knives as well. ALSO, contact Jim BEFORE you go out and buy a knife, especially if you are buying one to use in this course. You can spend a lot of money on a knife (Jim knows, he has and still does!) but there are good choices that are less expensive and work well. We highly recommend that you get/have a MANUAL knife with a THUMB STUD when first learning as they are the easiest to open, properly grip and use (besides being legal in the most states!).

 

Class size is limited and pre-registration is required!
