I'm not a fan of all the scooping and passing, but the directness and repetitiveness of the vital attacks show some functionality. In my own experience, anything more than a small scoop or ride often ends up with a committed, fast attacker redirecting his blade and getting you somewhere else. A lot of people better and more credible than I make it work with regularity, though.
I know you didn't post this to turn the discussion toward morality, but I have to ask what your exposure to this group has been? I'm not a big knife guy (I train it, but I don't really seek out new ideas with it, nor do I follow a lot of what's out there), but the camo fatigues and web belt tend to give me pause except under certain circumstances. My position on this kind of thing is very well known, so I won't rehash it and divert the thread. I was really just more curious as to whether the group in the video works mostly with civilians or soldier-types.
