    Not at all mate.
    Often the most vociferous, are those with the least to say.
    Forum Mod Mike Brewer trained with Paul Vunak.
    Glad you enjoyed the clip.

    No such thing as "impossible"... Of course the odds may favor the guy with the knife and THAT'S why he's using it.

    "In all countries where personal freedom is valued, however much each individual may rely on legal redress, the right of each to carry arms - and these the best and the sharpest - for his own protection in case of extremity, is a right of nature indelible and irrepressible, and the more it is sought to be repressed the more it will recur."

    I'm still amazed at Vunak's bongo playing abilities...

    The pistol draw vs. knife attack was interesting as was Vunak's demo.

    I totally reject Paul's premise that you will go into shock and have about three seconds after taking a cut. Time after time I have seen that this is not true.

    To be honst a great many people report that they DIDN'T EVEN KNOW they were stabbed until after the fight. And these are people stabbed in the torso, even with vital organs being punctured.

    Adrenaline, aloong with a lack of knowledge of what is happening, often gets people through.

    A few short weeks ago I was first at the scene of a multiple stabbing incident. One guys was stabbed 6 times before he went down and, even then, there were two other protagonists smashing him about the head with hands and a bottle.

    ps - Kudos to TV for ass kissing the Mods again by finding footage of one of them in action.

    pps - why does Paul V feel the need to platy the drums?

    ???
    Which mod is in action?
    That's Paul Vunak!

    btw. The clip is showing cuts to the forearm.
    You should really read up on the radial artery, before showing your ignorance.

    'In a fair fight i would have killed you'
    'Well that isn't much of a reason for me to fight fair then is it?'

    Thai Bri I agree with what your saying. I've seen knife attacks and heard some nasty stories about knife attacks and more often than not the guy who gets stabbed says (if he survived) that he didn't even realize until after the fight. I don't think that Paul Vunak is entirely wrong in what he's saying. If you do get cut across an artery then your body can shut itself down frighteningly quickly. Knife fighting is very dangerous and obviously best avoided but its not impossible. Troll virus your attitude is one of the worst I have ever encountered, you come across as being very rude and very arrogant, learn a little grace.

    Personally.
    I've trained Karl Tanswells S.T.A.B program, but yeah, first option; run like Carl Lewis being chased by a Cheetah (shreiking like a little girl).

    It is not impossible. Dangerous and very risky? Yes. Impossible? No way.

    Like Mr. Brewer, I have had my share of personal experience with knifers.
    The defeatist attitude of the title of this thread burns me... Phui! Who in their right mind is going to "dance" around or try to go toe to toe with a knifer?
    That video shows well enough what can happen if you try to engage repeatedly from close range.

    What's wrong with kickboxing a guy with a knife? (everything)

    "In all countries where personal freedom is valued, however much each individual may rely on legal redress, the right of each to carry arms - and these the best and the sharpest - for his own protection in case of extremity, is a right of nature indelible and irrepressible, and the more it is sought to be repressed the more it will recur."
