The practical lessons you learn by adding knife training to your arsenal include quick reaction skills, physical and mental control, footwork and evasion tactics, distance control, and target precision. Knife training gives you a decided physical and mental edge and opens new dimensions that will deepen your understanding of the martial arts.This special volume contains books 6 through 10 of the Knife Training Methods and Techniques for Martial Artists series, with focus on defending and counterattacking with the knife (each book can also be purchased separately):6.
