Apparently, Filipino footwork = run
He uses a lot of footwork techniques that look suspiciously like getting the fuck out of the way.
Rossco 599 or back up! LOL
you could just say you ran away don't Bullshit lol
Being Filipino I know Filipino footwork works good for catching dogs and cats.
The ancient filipino technique of "run around the termite mound to not get gored"
Nothing like braining them at 4 feet after some fine Filipino footwork!!..
We like to call this method the "Thompson two-step". 😁
He used a Filipino martial arts technique called PopACapInYoAss.
I love the jokes but you gotta admit, that was freaking legit!
I love the jokes but you gotta admit, that was freaking legit!
Proof Manny Pacquiaos has been training Lynn Thompson.
Lynn Thompson: *backs up*
Also Lynn Thompson: "that was a move I learned from Philippine martial arts"
TBF, his reflexes have been chiseled to near perfection.
@@flashn00b too bad his body was chiseled to look like melting icecream...
@@mushinshinobi6562 damn boi😂😂😂
I can't remember laughing so hard while having so much respect.
"Guys knives are tools not weapons"
Cold Steel:
"see how easily this cuts through a fake finger"
William:"Guys knives are tools not weapons"
Cold Steel:Observe
"Allow me to demonstrate hacking this pig with a sword. It's the perfect human analog!"
Anything can be used as a tool or a weapon just like how you can strangle someone to death with your shoe lace
Bowie? Switchblade? Boot knife? Bayonet? Those are weapons.
It worked 1000s of years ago it still works today swords and knives are epic damage dealer's.
Lynn Thompson is like that cool uncle at boring family gatherings who tells all the crazy stories and is a little "out there" himself, but dialed up to the max level....and I love it.
Why do I have the suspicion that in order to get a promotion, I'd have to defeat him first?
In some sort of Philipino martial art
@@tomoftheford8213 that he doesn't actually know...
@@KB-kw8ni if you don't know a guy like this then you are the guy like this.
Chuck Norris and Lynn Thompson are unbeatable!
@Thomas Lynn Thompson is a pud. He reminds me of the guy everyone knows. I'll bet he has a ton of hentai in his collection too.
Thanks again for having us! This was a fun one to film.
It was good to watch, i've still got my Absolute Proof DVD.
Oh, while I'm here, when is the Luzon coming to the UK?
Cold Steel sup!
@@AdvancedKnifeBro Hey buddy! Hope you're well.
Cold Steel Love your knifes👍🏼
Great video, thanks guys! Love my Cold Steel knives!
Hey anyone who doubts Lynn Thompson.. he drew that side arm fast as fuk against that buffalo.. that takes a high level of skill under pressure PERIOD
When he was talking about the boar did the hunter drop dead or the boar? Got me kinda confused there
@@nikosfilipino me to for a sec. The boar bled out at the hunters feet.
I actually thought someone behind the camera took the shots at first. That was pretty dang good work. Props to the buffalo as well for that catch lol.
Lmao dudes got skill
@shannonandsheila1 Damn where the hell were you at
Say what you will about this guy but he's got balls of steel and is cool as a cucumber when he needs to be.
No excuses, just a genuine person.
He just does the things we secretly want to do.. but he has 0% shame about it. That’s respectable and sooo comical all in the same.
Gotta admit tho, how many on here have ever tried to even throw a spear....much less hunt a live 1000 fkn pound water buffalo with one....and when missed they have the ability to shuffle out of the way and presence of mind to pull out a fkn hand canon and THEN actually make the shot in a split second? I mean....he kind of a bad ass If im honest.
Lynn is a badass
Don’t get me wrong.. The Filipino footwork shuffle transition to the Dirty Harry ‘make my day’ smoking of the beast was freaking awesome.
Comical? Are u fucking shitting me? Have you seen how he dealt with that buffalo? How many people you know that have the skill to pull that shit up? This guy is a true legend.
Once you get rid of the "conformist middle class" attitude life is so much better, they live in lie anyways so bother!!
How he handled that wild buffalo just proves Lynn Thompson is the real deal. He just remained cool as a cucumber the whole time, even afterwards. Takes a lot of self control. I've definitely decided to check FMA's out now.
I'd love to see those keyboard commandos do that sidestep draw and brain shoot a charging buffalo and put it on film too... like him or hate him he's got some mad skills under pressure👍👍👍
I've done the exact same thing with a charging steer, only using my fist instead of a gun. That thing staggered away three steps, fell over sideways and died on the spot. I'm not even kidding. It was a sick animal and I'm 100%certain it was the exertion putting too much stress on the heart that did it and it had exactly zero to do with my weak ass punch, but my point is that dodging a charging bovine that you can see and are facing, and hitting it back, is really not difficult at all.
@@lancerd4934 lol that's kind of funny, but a buffalo and a sick steer are slightly different
Real man right here!
That was pretty legit actually.
@@hrvsmart not really...
Normal president of a company:
Everyone else:
Lynn Thompson: I wanna go kill a Buffalo with a spear
Film crew: ummm-
Lynn Thompson: yes this is a great idea
FILIPINO FOOTWORK !! Thompson for POTUS 2024
Got my vote
I agree
Hell ya brother
🤣😂🤣😂🤣 I was gonna leave the same comment lol
Lynn is the only one who could beat Trump! Lynn Thompson for Pres 2024!
I want 4 more years of winning and then more winning!
Thank the Lynn this is just what I needed on a Friday morning. Better than a boot full of meat!
Agreed 👍
You need to go pratice those philippino moves for your next machete buffalo hunting video...
Did you volunteer your bamboo for the Great Lynn to destroy?
There was steak in the boot! Classic.
I think you may have mispelled "meat". I would have had a oot full of something else...
These stories are absolute gold. You the man Lynn. Much respect from Wisconsin.
The greatest moment was when Lynn said, " I know... I'll start a knife company". Thanks Lynn!
I'd watch a full length feature film just only about the beginnings! Hopefully 100% factual
Lynn Thompson has done so much for the knife community, and I can never take that away from him. But I wish he could loose the weight to insure he'll be around another 15 or 20 years. Because when he's gone, I dont have a lot of faith that his company will survive without his leadership. The way the world is going, we need visionaries like Lynn to show a new breed of conservative American entrepreneurs how to do things that people find offensive, and make it incredibly successful.
yea, fo sure. if he keeps eating like that, he will be gone in 2 more years.
I love how he admits when his products break instead of denying it. That speaks character to lynn and how hard he works. Wish I could get a chinese war sword but I cant afford it.
it's called to be just honest, nothing more
This is the most American 6 minutes I've had in a while 😍😂. Thanks Lord baby Jesus for those lifesaving Philippino moves though !
Try this

MERICA! Yup!
Cold steel cameramen putting bodies on the line for art since 1995
I used to think this guy was kind of a joke until I saw more interviews with him and saw him talk about blades and his passion for them. He changed my mind.
I love Lynn. he's 200% the real deal.
I vote for more videos and stories from Lynn Thompson #ColdSteelKnives #CutAnything #BladeHQ
Nice draw on that buffalo. You were almost his trophy.
Agreed!! Cool under pressure.
Can you imagine if LCT's final fate is an early grave due to his exploits instead of age or heart condition? I mean, die with your boots on? That's way better!
Kind off wish he was his trophy
Hans im Glück Stfu you edgy, teen loser
I love cold Steel. Picked up their drop forged boot knife today and am very impressed. It's got this great attachment clip that basically clamps down on absolutely anything, right side up, upside down, sideways, whatever. Awesome little dagger
"Bamboo takes a long time to grow"
... bamboo is one of, if not, the fastest growing plants in the world and is heavily invasive across the United States.
I laughed so hard cause by the time he planted it it would be all said and done when he wanted to harvest it. Hell if he wants to pay me a living wage and provide the necessities, I'll grow n harvest bamboo for him n tell everyone I work for LCT. As fast as time goes it couldn't be a long time in just five years. Thst goes by as fast as a week does to a child.
It takes a while for it to grow big in diameter I got tons of it right out the window.
@@secondswell I got a bunch of it and to get that diameter would take awhile.
MrBendyarms yep it grows up really fast but it takes a long time for it to be as thick as they use in the videos
i'd love to sell him some with an iron bar down the middle, just to see his face when he hit it.
PHILLIPINO FOOTWORK 🤣🤣😂😂😂😂 what an athlete!
Fall1ngN1nja 😂😂😂 lmao he got that Filipino footwork baby
Its proof Lynn is training with Manny Pacquiao.
Well I think everyone knows how to go side ways😂
Lets see you sidestep flying swords and charging buffalos.
2:34 " when your own the ground and being kicked it's good to know you can pull out your Chinese greatsword and cut through their boot as u lay in foetal position"
Thank you guys for this...Lynn is a beast and Icon. Great personality I can never get enough of this guy lolol.
This f$&?ing guy.... “brained him at about 5ft”. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
4.
My only resentment against Thompson is discontinuing the best blade for the money they had... the Talwar.
I still carry mine everyday. I've had two of them. They're not impossible to find on the internet, just alot more difficult now. Lol
Chuck Norris checks under his bed for Lynn Thompson⚔️
Haha nice one
Lynn thompson couldnt break wind on chuck norris... Chuck would beat The fat right off of lynn thompson.
Derek Vinyard rude
@@javanbybee4822 ouch
Chuck Norris doesn't check under his bed for Lynn because Chuck sleeps on Lynn's stomach
I love this guy! I want to hear more. Philosophical and spiritual interviews .
6:12 “Dropped dead at his feet he actually bled out.” Then the shows over. Lynn is Hardcore.
Oooh myyyy
I didnt get that part who died the boar or the hunter
@@gamer__grandpa5421 i actually think it was the boar
why would the hunter immediatly bleed out from a boar attack
i would understand if its a buffalo and he impales him with his horns but not a boar
@@robinkonig5828 boars have tusks
Simply steps back, "right there I used Filipino foot work"
press F for respect for the professional hunter who bled out somewhere in the bush
Great video. I have big respect for Mr. Thompson and to hear him explain the skill required to effectively pull off these demos I've watched for years increases the respect to a new level.
Every item I've bought from ltspecpro is top notch and wows my friends to no end. Thanks for all you do Lynn Thompson.
Lynn thank you so much for sharing these stories!!
l am so greatful that having done all that you can to
protect yourself still God's protection is
This dude crazy af, I love it!
I would watch Lynn all day.
This guy is a riot. The best is him describing combat with a sword. I’m sure he’s never been in combat with a sword. What century does he think he’s living in? Looks more like combat with a sheet cake. Still makes a decent beater knife, but man his rhetoric is historic haha.
I loved how you said to have power and control is hard, that's exactly why I don't swing full speed 90% of the time.
Accuracy drops really fast so best if you don't care what it hits you just want it to be obliterated, and always swing is sweeps not curved.
Cool video!
Wow Really Awesome Cold-Steel Video's👍😄👍!!!
Perfect timing, I had just watched some of his ridiculous stuff last night for the first time
Love this video as much as I love my COLD STEEL KNIVES. I have used my SRK for over 25 years. Bought it when I retired from the USN and did some security work. I couldn't list all my CS knives here, but I really miss the small folder you made in the 90s that opened like "flicking my bic". It was a great EDC and I used it all the time at work. Please bring it back as I lost mine. My favorite machete is the original Kukri machete that had the Kraton handle. Much less shock upon chopping versus the newer ones. All great knives and we love to see the master use them.
I love their videos! I have a bunch of their swords and knives and they are excellent.
I didn't know I have been practicing Philipino footwork all these years.
Lets be honest you mess with Lynn you become that water buffalo
I finally made it to Cold Steel’s factory showroom in Ventura (I live in nearby Ojai). But Lynn wasn’t there. Dammit! They were sold out of many knives because of the holidays, but it was still an enjoyable visit even though I’m not into swords or big knives. I think it’s cool we have a knife company in our own backyard!
Awesome. I love Lynn Thompson , he's a Beast . A lot of people have their opinions about the guy , but secretly want to be him. How cool would it be to spend a day with Lynn Thompson. I gotta save up and go to that Big Yard Sale Cold Steel has every year and meet him , what a blast it would be.
I did in 2016 and I'm very glad!
@@ssunfish I'm trying to save a little now for the trip. I live on the East Coast.
So when you were buffalo hunting even if you would’ve hit him in the shoulder. Did you just expect him to die immediately
in a quartering angle like that, the vital organs, specifically lungs and liver, are behind the shoulder. Considering the solid inch of penetration he got on the buffalo's horns, I don't have any trouble believing that his spear would go through the flesh of the shoulder and into an organ. Even then, death takes a while to come. You're right though - had he hit a bone like the shoulderblade or a rib, it would only wound the buffalo.
If you're hunting any big game at close range like that, it's a good idea to have a powerful gun handy, and the ability to use it. Lynn had both, and that's why he's alive to tell the story
You forgot to show us his EDC arsenal 😪
They didn't. Check out their video Top 7 Cold Steel knives with Lynn Thompson.😁
Love Lynn and love this video. Thanks guys for doing this.
I love cold steel I started Growing Bamboo them a little bit over 4 years ago keep up the good work guys ...
Legend once said a buffalo die in 5sec after trying to chase Lynn Thompson Filipino moon walks!
Lynn seems like the kind of guy people like to underestimate, then he shows his mutton. All doubt is gone!
While watching this video, I immediately began playing with my Voyager Vaquero XL!!!
Thanks 2 this guy I saved money in my quest for the ultimate apocalypse blade, the cold steel machete katana, I love it and recommend it, Its lite balanced. It weighs alot less than traditional katana
That damn Filipino footwork gets em every time😏
Too bad you didn’t put up a clip of your stick fight with Mark Denny.
As much as I like Lynn,... Filipino footwork??? Lol.
I spent my teenage years and early 20's working around cattle. Some where pretty wild. And on several occasions a old range cow, with horns, tried to take me. The trick is let them get close then just step out of the way. No fancy foot work needed.. Oh and you cannot outrun a water buffalo, or a north american buffalo for that matter.
My favorite Lynn Thompson video is the one where he spars with a guy with a smallsword with his ""Espada" knife. His sparring partner would be right at home with the Washington Generals. He had to work pretty hard to loose that ridiculous match up.
Misses the spear throw, unloads a revolver into it hahahahaha
Filipino footwork??? LMAO, that was great...
Oh wait, he was serious?
I don't think so, I hope he's joking.
Although he was exagerating a bit, those are actual "Filipino Techniques", but in a simular way to how a basic punch is a "Kung Fu" technique.
Natural reflex in that type of situation will almost always make you stumble and fall, especially being as large as him. To be able to back up in a split second like that without notice, and to keep a stable balance while doing so, requires specific footwork and training.
Easy to talk shit on the internet, but willing to bet that giant can move quite a bit faster than you.
No more goofy than you and your profile pic.
Oleg. Do you always stumble and fall when you have to rely on reflexes? He didn't even have to jump or pull a leg out of the way. He just moved backwards. Nothing special, at all. Except for clumsy people, I guess.
@@Oleg-oe1rc i was referring to how he made it sound like he planned the whole thing. That was just "oh shit" footwork.
Oleg, you have no idea who I am or what I'm capable of so assuming shit makes you sound stupid. I promise you he can't move quicker than me. But that doesn't matter cause my dick is longer, hahahaha. Jesus Christ, quit being a child.
Fact is, his first mistake was to hunt an Australian buffalo with a spear, even if it was pretty small for a buffalo. He isn't a bushman, as is shown by how many shots it took him to take the buffalo down with his pistol AFTER he missed with the spear. Lmao.
This is why I ordered a recon 1.
I have purchased so many Cold Steel products after watching his videos!
"Filipino footwork" he's such a great bullshitter I love it
He did kill a buffalo charging at him. I would have just shit my pants.
@@007wetz I'm talking about backing up from the knife
@@007wetz Ehhh....."Charge" might be a strong word. That buffalo saw that termite mound, got confused by it, and stopped while Lynn shot him. And let's hand it to Lynn that he managed to find the dumbest buffalo in the herd who let him get that close.
Lord Lynn, provider of all memes for us knife guys.
Yes Lynn! Yes I did! Love it! Good ole lynn!!!
This video made my day!
I wonder if he can Filipino footwork his way out of heart disease.
Bruh
I am without words. Thank you, BladeHQ.
WOOO LYNN THANKS FOR SHAREING
I like Lynn Thompson. Not many CEO's will put themselves directly in the line of fire, and not many CEO's are passionate about their business. Lynn clearly loves blades, and he certainly puts himself in the line of fire.
"I used a technique from Filipino martial arts"
-->Runs sideways, crossing legs.
Yeah sure dude
This is the dude in high school that wore a trench coat parachute black pants with all the metal hanging off it and had safety pins on them. He also ran through the halls making dinosaur noises.
J W Yep, but I would bet he has more money than 90% of the folks commenting. He plays and acts a role that draws attention to his company. Even the haters bring attention one way or another for better or worse.
Harley clearly he has more money. He’s the president of a company. Now he can buy all the trench coats and black nail polish he wants.
I like that Lynn Thompson and team they try their stuff and so they have at least a few cool stories to tell. Good thing that there are still some adventurers left out there.
I could watch and listen to Lynn all day 😉😆👊🏽
Lynn Thompson: king of the mall ninjas
Yes he is. And king of the used car salesmen’s.
@@peterv1318 he uses used car salesmen for practice.
"You'll probably laugh at us..."
Oh, so you know now?
Love this!!!
Great video! Lynn is awesome! More like this please.
I love him but 1- Philippine foot work I think not, there was no technique there, why you gotta make shit up Lynn? And 2- that Buffalo mate, weak throw, you were only ever going to piss it off.
Look at how fuckin fat the dude is ..
“Pilipino footwork” 😂 what a joke
I got bamboo for ya. Where I'm staying. I actually used the cold steel Frenzy and ti lite 6 inches to hack down bamboo stalks and it was still good and sharp. Didn't cut a lot of them cause I didn't want to push the limit and I wanted to save the edges for something important but I cut a few down.
Not gonna lie, that buffalo clip is pretty bad ass
Buffalo... Lynn Thompson fucked him.
I was waiting for the punchline of of this, obviously, joke video....it never came, this guy was being 100% serious!!!
This guy is gonna die like Robert Baratheon
Amazing knife/weapon producer, he is a warrior- no question! Greetings from Germany
This is gold! That buffalo wasn't expecting no humbuck bywas!
poor armchair
cringey as ever! well done Lynn!
For the next version of the video game Mortal Combat 12! The player has to faceoff against "Boss "Lynn Thompson of Cold Steel! He 1st attacks you with A Esapada XL ! Then he suddenly pulls and attacks you with 2 limited edition Lynn Thompson Serrated Voyager Vaquero XL ! Then a Fatality with his San Larado Bowie !
Awesome. Thanks Lynn.
Crappy video content the past month, then this...
It looks like he is really putting on weight. Hopefully he can work less and focus on that a bit more.
It's not weight, it's "counterweight"
Lynn always was a "Fire Plug"
You’s have one of the most awesome jobs, I’d love to test blades for a living. Much respect Cold Steel
Long time ago I bought a recon tango in Carbon V steel..some neighbor know it all said I was ripped off, put a glove on, wrapped the lanyard round tight and stabbed the hood of his pick up to the hilt..twisted it to make a key hole and pulled it out with only minor surface scratch..how much you want for it was all he said..still sharp..still good to go
