knife fighting

Burton, can you tell me how your approach to knife training has changed since working with Master Tony Diego? How do your new knife videos differ from your old ones?

Working with Tony Diego improved my sidestepping, and made me realize that I had to train the knife from some different defensive positions.
My SBG Productions Knife videos are all about reality, training against a resisting opponent. If you want info that can save your life in a knife attack, get the new tapes. If you want info for demonstrations and movies, get the old ones. Aloha!

I fully understand what you're saying about the reality part. I have trained extensively with Rey Galang, who heads up Bakbakan in the U.S. Kali Ilustrisimo's principles have been an eye-opening experience and invaluable as a reality based system of FMA. Thanks for your insight.
