Knife vs Bare Hands - A Reality Check 

They ain't lying to you

Smart smart man. Not there dumbass wannabe badass instructors who are like “ yeah disarm him and make him regret pulling a knife on you” no, run. The best option is to always run. If your being mugged, hand over what you have, nothing is worth your life. And if your cornered and can’t run, put your hands up, protect you wrists, and try and take control of the arm that had the weapon. In it(and disarm him if you can) this is all easier said then done especially in the heat of the moment. Even if you can stall long enough to make an opening go run, do it. And if you do keep your hands up and protect your wrists and try and go for the arm with the knife, your best bet is to push the guy with the knife and just book it, but if you can take the knife(only try if your 100% positive you can) then take it then run. If this is all they had then it effectively took the weapon away and also gave them less of a drive to chase after you now that you have a weapon. And the best choice of them all is carry a gun. If I wasn’t a felon then I would but I did my crime and have to pay the price, so now I carry a sharp ass knife. Look up knife laws in your area. Even a pocket knife is better than nothing. But if your state is not strict like my state (Indiana) you can carry certain types of knives. If by the very small chance someone from Indiana sees this comment, our knife laws are very loose. You can carry a blade of any size, and you can also carry butterfly knives or switchblades.

What if he’s faster tho lol, than you have to fight.

You can't just run. There are some things to be considered.

@@stevenseagull7589 Right! People act like you can't defend yourself against someone with a weapon.

poor guy probably just wanted to cut veggies at the safety of his home and got domed by a 308

Yeah, you’re the kind of asshole who leaves friends and family behind to save your sorry ass. You “runners” always have the same answer, which might be why you never train for when the real fight comes, or pressure test your training. You are a coward and moron, you just don’t know it.

My college roommate got cut up pretty bad by a dude with a box cutter. It was nasty as hell. If he’d had a deer knife the guy would have been dead before he got home. We were broke as fuck at the time and he had just gotten paid after a shift bartending. Giving up his money wasn’t really an option but he paid dearly for keeping it.

The only training I do now is cardio.. used to be into football type stuff but unless you need to slam (you don’t) someone power cleans are useless in the real world.

The only time I got held up with a knife I pulled out a revolver instead of my wallet and the guy ran away.

This demo is shit. The defender clearly knows what attacks are coming. And in a cpl, the attacker is not maintaining aggression throughout.

Mind you i had zero training in anything, i just liked to fight, but have been humbled plenty of times by trained boxers and grapplers 😂

Right

4. Use your own knife and be sure the other guy dies too

Or carry a sheild and your own knife and kill the guy with good chance of not getting injured or killed

Also knife combat for armed vests outside the ceramic ones and stuff is also extremely dangerous, more dangerous then a pistol round according to tests. This is because the fibers in them are made to disperse impact, a stabbing weapon is EASILY a powerful and deadly tool to use against someone who’s armed and or armored

Its not like he can do much when grabbed

they get kneed in the groin , which is why im assuming they stop long enought to be tackled to the ground. but in a real fight like that i doubt that would be enough with all the adrenaline.

To be fair, Jiu-jitsu isn't designed for knife attacks haha. Sometimes I bring rubber knives to train. It's a great game to play and also gives you a good reality check. Doesn't even need to be a rubber knife, it can be just an old white board marker without the ink. I'm sure you'll be surprised by the results after 3 days of practicing.

@Justice for Nalu u definitely have a better chance of running away than beating the knife guy idk wat ur talkin about. he was in jail, not really anywhere to run, its different outside.

That's talking in a riot. In like yhe streets or something it is entirely possible to run far away, possibly towards someone who can assist you (like say police or something)

Thanks for telling me that you survived. I had no idea and thought you posted this from beyond the grave.

100% i usually take the knife the body still has parts you can twist and bend to incapacitate the attacker.

so true ugh

Yeah, slash test 2, that one contact looks like it's in the general area to potentially be a brachial artery hit (a pretty good spot to check your own pulse). That's not good. Like that's only below carotid and maybe femoral for spots you don't want to get slashed (and obviously aorta itself, but that's more likely to be from a puncture than a slash).

never block the knife avoid the attack till the attack is made. grapple on the extension and twist.. the aarm comes off or the knife drops ... every time.

Absolutely! What we see is the absolute best case scenario for the unarmed person , not even bringing up the fact that the attacker is obviously hesitating in some of his attacks to give the other guy a chance to demonstrate his techniques.

Also, the guy with the knife never used any smart attacks.

@@ThirdLawPair because he is emulating what a typical knife attacker would do. A skilled person with a knife is very rare in attack situations and isn't viable for a experiment like this.

@@lightingthief4482 Depends on where you go. In the Philippines, you might very well run into someone who really knows how to kill you with a knife. Even if the guy with the knife basically knows how to handle himself a little, it's reasonable that he might grab you with his other hand to create openings. I do get what you are saying about simulating a typical knife attack, but it still says something about knife defense technique that it's hard to pull off even against a moderately smart knife attack.

and the knife guys uses classic boxing stance, giving the defender leverage(catching the non dominant hand, slamming into his body, making sure the knife has less speed, swinging in large arcs). The guy who has no training and the guy who has weapons training will face you dominant hand forward holding the knife, good luck catching that hand with a knife in it.

If someone puts a knife on you, it’s most likely adrenoline and fear is a lot more kicked inside your adversary. Most people don’t realize that in a street fight, adrenoline is a deadly weapon. Both for the person with it and the person against it.

Yup, it's even worse if you're always doing downward stabs in pickaxe grip since you lose some range with the knife and they're the "easiest" to defend against (I say this as someone from a country where this is the common way to use a knife by thugs and junkies) Slashes are the most underrated way to use a knife. A moment that marked me as a kid was when I played GTA 4 and used the knife, the game actually used motion capture by Bas Rutten for the melee combat to give the player that vibe of being a military veteran with a lot of combat experience, point is? Niko would constantly switch between 1 or 2 quick stabs and some nasty neck slashing, quite similar to what's seen in the video here. A good knife fighter will use slashing, feints and some fencing basics, or at least that's the way I've taught myself also taking into consideration that some of the people who kinda know how to use a knife in my country do use fencing basics because they were brought to us from the spanish after getting colonized, it's even more prevalent among argentinians but I ain't from that country. If you're already 50/50 on survival chance against an untrained attacker, I don't even wanna imagine myself unarmed against some guy who knows how to move a knife. EDIT: knife defense isn't bs at all, it does work specially against an unarmed attacker, is it recommended to apply it? of course not, this is only for a hypothetical life or death situation, even more if sadly you're a slow runner like me. However the guy here does also miss a big important part which is creating distance and rotating around the attacker, distance not only helps keep you safe but also makes the attacker need to resort into stabs for the most part, which as you already mentioned are the knife's biggest weakness, rotating and parrying can also create an opening for escape while forcing the attacker to change angles and disorienting him. Barely moving like the guy in the video will only make the attacker's job easier since he can stab and cut with smaller movements, which are also harder to see specially with adrenaline pumping.

Majima

Especially kali or any knife fighting martial arts.

@@RealGedagedi i see you're a man of culture as well

as a 9 year second degree blackbelt in American karate the things we are taught first is depth perception and extreme acknowledgement of our surrounding area, then we are taught that the fist is less deadly than the knife so we go for the knife and straiten the arm to render it useless like in the video then its a game of leverage over the body

Also a big big thing forgot by this video is grabbing. I can assure you grabbing your opponents could have a massive impact in the fight on the both side, like if the attacker can grab an arm, he can then pull the defender and stab him. Or as the defender, you can go rushing for the armed arm and secure it. I am not a fight expert it is just what I think could have been shown

@@RU-vidOfficialReviewerAccount He tried to grab the knife but the attacker was moving his arm very fast. Hard to get a good grip.

@@astolfo-official he was holding back a lot.

@@astolfo-official He was holding back a lot. He's going in with wide telegraphed arcs instead of the straight fast stabs you see on crime footage, or even the overhead. This gives the defender more time to see the attack coming and isolate the arm. Once isolated the attacker doesn't try to free the arm or slash. In many stabbing crime videos the attacker doesn't just suddenly stop. They keep slashing at arms and hands, then when the victim is bleeding they go in for the kill and keep stabbing. No technique, but very dangerous all the same.

@@daesungkim1478 Police officers can just use guns and there is something called a Stab Vest that you could wear.

@@daesungkim1478 As Petrov said, officers have tools for the job to deal with the situation. Taser isn't amazing option, but the shock might be able to incapacitate them for an arrest. Pepper spray can blind, and force submission with pain, but bad choice. Better than none. Firearm, best choice you can get. Good shot placement, can end the fight. Simply having it drawn might make them disengage and run, which accomplishes what you set out to do. Protect first. Problem with guns, you have to draw them, similar to knives, and they are distance based tools. Closer you get, harder to use. Right up close, a gun is difficult to use. Especially in knife range, drawing it and putting shots where you need to may be borderline impossible if they have a hand on your gun or on your arm, or somewhere that may throw your shot off. If there is someone you have to protect, you need to consider your options carefully, and also choose what makes sense to carry for protection. Some places in some countries don't allow firearms despite them being the best tools for defense there is, so in those places you need to pick carefully what you feel is the best option for your defense if running is not an option. Pepper spray and tasers are the most common options, neither are perfect. Both have glaring issues. It's a bad scenario, but one you might have no choice in the matter of.

A marker leaves marks wherever it touches, but a knife, even though grandma could stick a knife right through your leg like jelly, requires some force to leave a cut or stab. that means if you block a knife strike with your arm its possible that the tip of the knife will touch you but wont hurt you, also its a lot harder to hurt someone with a dull knife, but you should always assume the knife the attacker has is razor sharp.

@@rayyanshaikh5591 yes. In a knife fight, you are going to bleed.

Jesus! Thank you! Finally a common sense comment. I was scrolling to see when this happens. I’ve doing martial arts since I was 8. Any time I’ve dealt with no bullshit teachers, instructors, or sensei’s they’ve all said the same thing. If you HAVE to get into a knife fight, just know you’re going to get cut. But if you train enough, your training will hopefully override your fear. Believe it or not people, training, determination, and will power will get you through some crazy injuries.

This was the same advice a krav maga instructor told me. Try to disarm anyway, distract, or hold onto the arm. This is my own--Identify which hand you can bear to sacrifice 😂

This. Although bare in mind it's much harder to kill someone with a knife than hollywood would have you believe, pretty much none of the injuries in this video would've been life threatening or fight ending. Look up any incident of someone being killed with a knife and they were stabbed and/or cut 20+ times minimum and likely took a while to bleed out.

what a beast

Interesting story, how did he take away the knife tho?

@@richko Can't stab a man if your skull's caved in

Fat power ✊

What a fucking chad.

I'm very much suicidal so I'm bringing a knife to a gun fight.

@@vhsninjaccoon7705 yo you alive?

@@Zach.1809 Of course. If I wanted to die it would be old age. That's a lot years longer though

@@vhsninjaccoon7705 I was joking

@@vhsninjaccoon7705 bout the first comment you said

Sir? U want me to turn my back around an armed maniac? What if he has more endurance than me and is potentially able to tackle me after running a few meters? Pretty sure having a stabber on top of you is...it's just over. Running is gambling. First u stall to see if u could take him on or not. If he is not scared of u then... take running as last option

And he knows the style of attack beforehand, he has his hands braced. And he’s a bit bigger then the attacker’s

​@@soulstice33 Yeah if he wants your wallet, your phone, your clock.... just give your valuables to him, they're not worth your life. The only reason to stay and fight would be if it was to protect someone you care about.

@@soulstice33 He has a knife not a gun, you have more of chance of surviving by running to a crowded area or somewhere with people some how some way.

@@Gamemote i take it you have never played assassins creed

bleeding from a knife injury can kill a person so easily in 10 mins

If cut deep enough he would lose function of those arms

You only have to protect your forehead eyes neck sides of shoulders and stomach. That’s the basics of it anything else can be injured and won’t kill you immediately so use it to take them down.

hard to explain but ill keep it simple and say that cant happen in a stab attack like that

being successful means that you survive

Its elligal in Sweden but I tend to carry knife anyway from times to time. Id much rather prefer a fine than my life

1st rule of a knife fight: Have a gun.

Same as kenjutsu

I live in Italy, where it's illegal to bring a knife with u, but if it isn't a proper weapon (if it has only one side blade or an unlocked blade) u can use an excuse, because Italian laws are trash, and if u have a combat knife u can say u need it to cut some bushes (in the center of the city)

@@MrCrumb34 knife win agains gun most of the time. Checkout mythbuster "don't bring a knife to a gun fight"

If you can't retreat you need to close the distance; the safest place to be is beside or behind your opponent.

Teacher was just showing you who has more experience.

My instructor choked me with a belt when i was a kid lol

@@Buckwheat0 bruh I'm gonna need context or that's just abuse wtf

@@ryanchow8881 nah. that seems like a standard modus operandi of oldschool karate teachers.

@@rodeoordeal4027 lol your right, what was I thinking 😆

Adrenaline is a bitch bro
