    subtle and incredibly effective. utilizing the tip of the knife to not get hung up, stance changes to give you the vital space needed in a pinch, utilizing a circle motion facing your opponent to flank and most importantly stepping around aggressor to avoid reach. Practical defense skills on display here!

    In the 80s I remember a story on the Sturgis Motorcycle rally held every year. What stands out was knife fighting competition with a referee.Yup..with steel knives. When you draw blood you got the point.The knife tips were rounded,so only slashing techniques were used. One finalist was a big Indian over 6ft tall,long black hair. My jaw dropped when he took his shirt off before the fight,as his chest had maybe 100 old knife scars from what looked like a lifetime of knife fighting.
    I cant find any Internet info on it but it really happened.

      Good insight! 😃
      It's my understanding that we adapted fencing techniques from the Spanish when they invaded our land back in the 1500s and 1600s.
      Every family has their own style, some more systemized than others. None the less, there's a common thread, a shared spirit.
      Our Warrior Ways are adaptive and change with the times while managing to stay the same; it's a balance that I am proud of.

      Its not. In reality your opponent moves as fast as you do. You CANNOT do two moves while they remain stationary or only do one. Reality doesn't work like that. Watch full speed testing of this and it all falls apart pretty fast. That's why every culture invented longer weapons......to increase your odds of survival because in a close up knife fight they aren't good for either opponent.

    Hello from Finland! Me and my friend created sort of a knife fighting form of martial art (my backround is from military, karate, taekwondo, muay thai and shoot fighting. My friend had trained the taekwondo and judo). So 2014 we decided to train these basic techniques and after a while we realized that using these steel toe shoes gives you advantage if you know what you are doing. For example: Man with a knife V.S man with a knife = you must do combinations like approaching your opponent starting from unorthodox stance (knife in right hand) and kick at the opponents knifehand, move to right direction and 1-2-1-2 (left fist face, knife to the gut, left fist face, knife to the throat) etc. Offcource you use plastic-rubber dagger when you train with a partner but use a real one when you train on your own because it removes your focus if it aint real and you will end up with your own knife in your leg.... Yes - it's for self defense, but if that situation comes in front of you, there is no time to think about your opponents health if theres a three bad guys robbing you or something.

I've watched quite a few videos of real knife fights on the street by people who really want to kill each other. I have never seen moves demonstrated like I have here. Perhaps the ones doing the real knife fighting should learn from your skills and technique. Perhaps a sparing match with safe knives and safety referees to keep everyone safe. I would very much like to see that on video. I think we would all learn so much. Thank you.

    The movements are very good, since all usable systems are the same, regardless of their geographical origin. People everywhere have two hands and two legs. The important thing is not only to copy the external form of the master's movements, but to be aware of why things happen that way. The intention that guides the movement is important!

      Believe it or not some Historians stated that Spanish Explorers ( Conquistadors) brought with them a contingent of conquered "Filipino Warriors" with them to the new lands ( ~1600s - 11700s Latin America & early North America) fought alongside the Spanish with their short swords, long swords and knives ( daga). Dan Inosanto's demonstration at the Smithsonian talks briefly about it. The Spanish used early muzzle loading rifles & armor. The Filipino warriors were ambidextrous & keen on hitting the major arteries. The native Indigenous Peoples were similar in warfare.
      Apache ( & many others ) were very skilfull with bladed weapons & firearms. The Apache were the last to surrender & submit to rez LiFe.
      My dad spent time in the rez in the 60s. Dine.
      The switch & hammer technique trains the left hand in combat This is a very good drill & demo👍

    • @jajabinks92123
      @jajabinks92123 5 місяців тому +1

      After that the Spanish were "removed" and the land retained again by the natives (including what happened in Mexico to the Aztecs regain of their land. Through the Spanish conquest they claimed upto what is now parts of California, Arizona, New Mexico Nevada and upto Colorado, etc...but it was a claim because the native Indigenous (Indians) tribes lived there Souix, Dine, Mescalero, Apache etc lived in those ateas)
      Then the pilgrims & the colonization & expanse westward. In the late 1700s to 1800s Some Historians stated some Filipino Warriors jumped ship ( Spanish Armada & trading ships ) & settled in what is now Louisiana ~ 1650s or early to mid 1700s.
      Much is lost to time & decades of conflicts & westward takeovers.
      The natives must've fought hard as seen in this Apache combat demo.
      If only there was a project collaboration of Indigenous Peoples & Historians to gather data & research history for a Documentary of these events....a Movie would be Great!
      I imagine it would enlighten us all of the past history of how the Americas were explored & conquered (taken ) & "taken again. How people on both sides (all sides involved ...the indigenous Natives against the Spanish & then (some...some welcomed & formed alliances with the whites ) against the white colonists (Washishi)& the Colonists against the then British oppressors......even the conquered Filipino warriors were wanting to break free from the Spanish) They were all fighting for their WAY of Freedom back then. Now we have some sense of unity.

      So KoRyu?? What “Samurai” art exactly. I learned how to fight with a katana but I have never learned how to be a samurai because that is not a fighting style it is a form of employment. You’re basically saying I learned knight sword fighting. That is not how historical martial arts are taught, they are either lineage styles or rediscovered styles neither have legitimate claims to being actually from the samurai. All of your fighting techniques in Japan tradition can only be traced back to after the samurai were actually dismantled. Anthony Cummings and other people who do try to revive the samurai culture along with the KoRyu or traditional sword techniques do so from manuals. There are no living samurai to confirm what is actually proper.

      The one you practice and spar with the most will be YOUR best one, which is the most important.

    Its an interesting question. Did native americans have a type of fighting boot camp they would put their warriors through? Was anything written down? Was knife fighting systems standardized ? Was the knife even their primary weapon ? I would think spear would be more important?

    • @robinprice7032
      @robinprice7032 5 місяців тому

      There was no written account of training as the natives did not have a written language. Training was started during childhood, starting with games and evolving into more concentrated training by the Elders and warriors. Everyone carried a knife as it was an everyday tool. The primary weapon was the warclub and bow and arrow. When the Europeans brought metal and firearms, everything changed. Unfortunately, If not for family traditions, most of the warrior arts have disappeared.
