Discover the Mediterraneo Navaja Spanish Knife and Balisong Fighting Method
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- The Spanish Navaja and Balisong method have several crossover tactical applications. One of them is the Mediterraneo Grip - the edge up orientation that opens up new avenues of study in both arts. The Navaja uses impeccable shoulder coordination to implement the cloak to disguise the Mediterraneo Grip, while the Balisong methodology uses exceptional hand manipulation to setup its counterpart- the Manila opening.
In this episode, these two methods become hybridized in one of Cold Steel’s most underrated designs - the Luzon XL. Designed after one of Lynn Thompson’s favorite Balisong, it is a proven yet affordable design that excels in both combative and utilitarian contexts.
I hope you enjoy this video! 🙏🏽🔥👊🏽

An adaptation in clothing is to use a button up shirt for the cloak and dagger methodology. Jackets are hard to justify in warmer climates or seasons. It’s a lot easier to wear a loose thin button up shirt with a thin T-shirt or tank top underneath. Winter is coming so I think I’ll start practicing that with my flannels.
Also, the Filipino openings are really slow. The Matanga method is really good. It’s something similar to what I use for cutting string for my job.
Hello Rolando. Did you try the Cold Steel Hidden Angel balisongs? Really great TANK builded balisongs.
I have not! They’re discontinued yes?
Gotta pick up a Luzon now! 💪🏼
🙏🏽🔥👊🏽 Train it once you do!
Absolutely!💪🏼

Great share!
I've got the 6" Luzon and 4 other of their XL folders. In some ways I like the Luzon more than the others. The blade design is the most versatile of all of them and its got the best deployment of all of them as well imo.
I almost didn't buy it because I normally don't like the steel it's made of. Cold Steel has the tempering and heat treatment aced on this steel. I was pleasantly surprised after using it to carve hardwoods. It held its edge better than the other knives I have in the same steel and its easy to put a razor edge on it.
I'd love having one in 3V steel with the tri lock like most Cold Steel blades have. Dollar for dollar there are no other large folders that comes anywhere close imo. I like this channel, it's interesting to me. I've never used a knife in a fight but I have faced opponents with knives several times. I was stabbed in one of them and slashed in another. The other ones didn't land any cuts. All of them look in the mirror and remember why it's not a good idea to attack people with knives.😊 I had knives in every encounter but didn't use them because I didn't want the trouble it would have caused. I will use one if I have to but hopefully that never happens.
Thank you and I really believe that the Luzon is the most underrated big folder in the industry. $40 and it does double-duty. I have a friend who is a professional cook and he uses it daily.
Thank you for sharing your stories - I’ve found the same. Carrying actually keeps you out of trouble because you don’t want to use them. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
