Hard2hurt, this does not make sense. Karate and other Okinawan systems were never designed to disarm a firearm except unarmed fighting and melee tools. Why did you bring an overrated practitioner of Karate Do who never got involved in street fighting? He only have experienced point sparring and a MMA match. That's it. It is like me trying bring a Kendo dude to a live experiment to try out defensive methods against Mongol arrows in a historical reenactment of Tsushima invasion.
"I hit myself twice in the nuts yesterday with nunchucks." Sensei Seth is always on point for comic relief, haha. But yeah, I've definitely done that before too.
I love that Sensei Seth was just randomly hanging out in the background until he just interjects talking about how he hit himself in the nuts with nunchucks lmao.
"stuffing the weapon" is a long established technique that I LOVE. it's still taught and used by Military and Police today, but goes back as far as combat in cities does. when someone goes for a weapon, you go for their hands.
One thing I love about this channel is something I’ve said for years that Icy Mike reiterates most often. “If you don’t know how to fight with your hands, you won’t know how to fight with weapons.” 💯
I agree completely, but I'd like to add that if you don't know how to fight with weapons, you won't know how to fight against them. Far too many knife defence videos feature a knife wielder who doesn't know what they're doing.
@@Vlad_Tepes_III oh for sure. But being able to box would be a fertile ground for learning how to properly use a knife or club as a weapon. And even basic boxing skills would translate over to firearms training to an extent because you would need to learn stance, balance, timing, and accuracy.
Another great video. Really happy to see how well the dynamic between Jesse (stable, careful, reflective) and Icy Mike (the master of chaotic energy) works here.
One of your videos about "I WOULD JUST SHOOT HIM" is among my favorites. Funniest, and most educational. Also, love seeing Jesse regularly adjust his gi during the video. So relatable!
This was actually a really good one! He always comes with such great energy it felt like he actually learned something out you really added a layer to his own understanding. This was like watching two Master painters collaborate.
The rational and logical perspectives that are portrayed in this video are phenomenal. It's so refreshing to hear instructors talk about the reality of a fight, as opposed to "here's the ideal thing to do." Freaking awesome.
I got a top five of my favorite social media martial artists. Some move in and out. Mike and your channel stay in the top. I've done security consulting and have this channel and playlist as homework for my teams. For not being live this is probably the best source of information period. That just happens to have some solid entertainment and personality and I want to reiterate that is secondary to the importance of the actual message that is successfully broken down each time. You truly are a great teacher. Thank you.
I love how manage to keep the balance between "here's how you defend against a knife" and "you don't fight someone with a knife". This is probably the closest to reality as you can get in training!
Y'know what I really appreciate about Jesse Enkamp? Of all the combat art content creators, he seems to have his ego in check better than the rest. Willing to take the role of the student, take instruction, and look like the newbie. Despite his skill, he's super humble and polite and respectful. I never seem him trying to push his knowledge as superior or try to show off. And for that I respect the heck out of him and I'm glad to see him setting a good example in a community where pride can easily get in the way of learning
The thing I love about all these guys (Icy Mike, Seth, Jesse, Kevin, Wonderboy, etc.) is the same vibe I get from a lot of the historical weapon youtubers I watch (Skallagrim, Schola Gladiatoria, Swordsage, Tod's Workshop and the like), and is also what I have heard about martial artists the world over since long before the internet - they have a deep and abiding passion for what they do, and they want to share their knowledge with each other for the sake of learning more about their shared passion. Basically they're a bunch of nerds who happen to be nerds about fighting.
I love that you guys picking up where you stoped. Last video with you two was about modern weapons and traditionel training methods. And here we are. Love it 👍
Someone send this video to Chael Sonnen. "I can't let you get close" may have worked against Wanderlei Silva, but it ain't working in the grocery store: AKA the most dangerous of all of the places. Just kidding! Good stuff, Icy Mike. Always nice to see a cool collab with another of my favorite UA-camrs.
One of the reasons I really like Wing Chun as a basis for self defense is because of that principle of sensing and filling the vacuum. Ip Man said "greet what arrives, escort what leaves, rush upon loss of contact" -- he was referring to striking down the centerline, but the same principle applies to jamming a weapon draw. One thing I really like for this too that I was surprised Jesse (as the champion of classical karate) didn't do is sweep. If you jam the draw for just a sec with one hand, you can get the other arm across the neck/chest and then scissor sweep behind the calf or you can collar tie and foot sweep. This gives you an opportunity to run or drop into side control on top of the weapon, or soccer kick the guy's head or whatever. I've done this a bunch in this same drill. Classic Hard2Heart. Simple common sense principle. Direct training drills.
Ohhh feel the sensitivity, I love that. I think for my students, I'm a very new teacher and I am by no means good at weapons yet, so I'll probably start off super basic.
i have been waiting for this collab for so long! not finished with the video though because it came out 1 minute ago i couldn't have seen it but probably good as always!
I love that during these collabs there is always some other martial artist at Mike's, like Sensei Seth at 6:57 (who probably lives there by now). Great content, thank you to both Mike and Jesse.
Awesome stuff Mike and Jesse! I’m just a sword nerd, and in HEMA or JSA there are techniques for jamming up on your opponent so they cannot draw their sword (since they often have a 3 foot long blade). These are much more intense drills you’re working with, with tiny margins for knife and pistol defense! Some hard work to become proficient in such a rough spot. Keep it up.
I hate Karate but from what I see in Videos Jessie is always so humble to learn and take in criticism, he's happy to show videos of him getting a beat down and even though he knows there are other ways of fighting, other styles, other mind sets and philosophy that maybe are superior then his. Jessie doesnt double down by screaming "my art is better, yours is rubbish" he absorbs the knowledge, excepts tines have changed and then stays true to his traditional art, because its what he loves and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. I couldnt do that as my goals are different but mad respect to Jessie.
Rule 1 of all martial arts should be: avoid conflict, at all costs. Luckily I live in the UK where guns aren't such a big issue, but I've had a knife pulled on me (by an adult, when I was 14 and in my school clothes, no less) and not ashamed to say I ran tf away.
So happy to see you all hanging out making content. Great content all around. Love that it's about reality, not what's cool, yet Mike admits having fun is still part of training. Some of the most level headed content on fighting, self defense, and training I have seen. I watch Everyone who appeared in this video, you are all awesome.
This is the best 12 minutes of weapons defense I have ever seen. Any introductory weapons defense course should start with 12 minutes just like this. This is more important than any technique or planned defense. I've been to so many weapons defense seminars where we spend hours on "What if it's a slash from this direction?" and "What if someone's holding a gun on you in this specific position?" All of that stuff is basically useless. It's just hours and hours of wasted time. If someone is already in your range and swinging a knife at you, you're probably going to get cut. If someone already has a gun on you, you're probably shot if that person wants to shoot you. And a sudden movement might make the person want to shoot you even if he didn't really want to shoot you before. So many weapons seminars start from a position where you have basically already lost the fight. The whole fight is to not let this person get in a position to where he can stab or shoot you. It's so insanely difficult to not get cut when someone has drawn a knife and has freedom to slash and stab at you unpredictably. This idea that you're going to catch their arm as they slash and stab at you and throw them with a wrist-lock is crazy. I have never actually seen that happen with a live, unscripted opponent. Not once. And if someone has a gun drawn at close range, it's basically impossible to not get shot. I've been to Krav Maga knife seminars where they give you plastic knives with lipstick on the outside. Everyone starts with their knives already drawn. And then everyone ends up with lipstick all over them. And all you learn in those seminars is that, if someone already has a knife drawn and is in range, it's basically impossible to avoid getting cut. Thank you, that will be $99. You can learn better knife defense by just watching this free 12 minute video and regularly training in wrestling, BJJ, or some other kind of grappling style where you can learn how to feel and control an opponent.
I loved this! The look @karatebyjesse gave the camera in the intro during the "we have gun guys here in America" part was golden. Another excellent video as always
Icy Mike you have opened this video with the mind set that I have been saying for a long time. To much reliability on a gun or on a, weapon and not enough time in practical hand to hand fighting. Thank you guys this video.
Mike used the Thrust of Freedom to make space from Jesse and the knife! Ameri-Do-Te proves to be the best of all and the worst of none, again. Don't forget to re-stomp that groin!
I am very proud to say i am a gun guy who began training in large part due to this channel. Been training mma for a little over two years now. Icy Mike made me realize i was delusional, training made me realize just how delusional i was.
I think this is a really great useful video, first of all. The focus is to prevent the knife attack prevent the gun attack from happening. Because once that weapon is drawn, your safety is diminished greatly within a few seconds. This is one thing I do want to say. You do not want to be in a position where you're stepping back to strike because even if you knock the person out with one hit if they have the weapon in their hand and they already have their finger on the trigger, they can miss fire and still shoot you as they're falling to the ground. It's not safe. You do not want to get into a punch and kick situation. I feel like knife attacks are very, very dangerous. And so yeah, the more you can do to prevent the attack from happening, the better. There are way too many variables to ensure safety.
I train stopping weapon draws from the close range/clinch Blindfolded in my FMA/Combatives class. This method lets you develop a "feel" for a weapons draw.
Jesse throwing the knife reminds me: when you gonna cover throwing knives/spikes/shuriken/etc for self defense? Gotta be easier to carry half a dozen throwing stars than one of those co2 launcher things.
Very True Icy MIke! I practice 3-5 times a week at the draw and fast shooting ect, every week! Practice is key! Get to the weapon before its pulled out!
Something like this may have been mentioned before in the nearly 500 comments but...Craig Douglas aka SouthNarc said "a gun is a problem solver but you may have to solve some other problems before you introduce a gun into a fight". Craig's ECQC course was an outstanding opportunity to learn some of the best practices of working the problems when you are at clench distance and you and/or your opponent are armed.
That was fun to watch! It reminded me of some time I spent with a DBMA group. I was already training Kali, JKD and BJJ. The Dog Brother coach wanted to explore what happens when you're on the ground with someone that pulls a knife. No perfect solutions. I "died" so many times!
There is a Boker knife, which i use in my day to day- one could say- "carry", which is very cheap- so should one be forced to use it, it won't be much of a pain to give it to police afterwards- but also has this little wonderful feature, that you can clip it to inside of your pocket or another option is what in gun terms could be called "appendix carry"- trained with it a lot and i have to say, that in situation, where somebody is already grappling you or even exchanging blows with you- the natural way of bringing your hands to the guard lends itself beautifully to drawing that thing. Keeping knife handle in front is great way of carrying it
In my paratruper unit teach us to fall down (on your back) in close combat like you show us or knife attack... and pull gunt out while fall back and shoot from graund ..we spare scenarios to learn to have right distance to efective pull and use gun ..we train not to push in ..but to fast get out with fall on the ground and same time pull gun out and shoot
I was listening to a podcast with a former member of the SAS who was asked about EDC in the uk and top of his list was a torch/flashlight. Not on the video topic but it was cool to see more people recognising the humble flashlight.
The best part about flashlights is that they're genuinely useful piece of equipment, so not just in very specific circumstances, and are practically unregulated so you can carry them everywhere!
A very nice Video. The Interesting Part ist that this Situation ist the Most trained Situation in Aikido. Cause of this they Push If they Grab the wrist. Most people say its BS but in this Situation it makes absolute sense. Techniques Like Sankyo Work great in this Situation.

It's not safe. You do not want to get into a punch and kick situation. I feel like knife attacks are very, very dangerous. And so yeah, the more you can do to prevent the attack from happening, the better. There are way too many variables to ensure safety.
I train stopping weapon draws from the close range/clinch Blindfolded in my FMA/Combatives class. This method lets you develop a "feel" for a weapons draw.
Dude, is so wholesome when I see all of you guy together. I just viewed the Seth`s video and now this one. Waiting for the Jesse and Kevin videos.
Jesse throwing the knife reminds me: when you gonna cover throwing knives/spikes/shuriken/etc for self defense? Gotta be easier to carry half a dozen throwing stars than one of those co2 launcher things.
Werkz holsters are the shit. Super comfortable and very functional
Jesse is legit 👍 Took the video to another level.
Very True Icy MIke! I practice 3-5 times a week at the draw and fast shooting ect, every week! Practice is key! Get to the weapon before its pulled out!
It's awesome to see Jesse back in the States doing videos again!
The humor in all the wrist lock control and taking the pistol, early in the video cracked me up.
reasons why your the best defence channel..
Something like this may have been mentioned before in the nearly 500 comments but...Craig Douglas aka SouthNarc said "a gun is a problem solver but you may have to solve some other problems before you introduce a gun into a fight". Craig's ECQC course was an outstanding opportunity to learn some of the best practices of working the problems when you are at clench distance and you and/or your opponent are armed.
I absolutely love this collaboration stuff!!!!
That was fun to watch! It reminded me of some time I spent with a DBMA group. I was already training Kali, JKD and BJJ. The Dog Brother coach wanted to explore what happens when you're on the ground with someone that pulls a knife. No perfect solutions. I "died" so many times!
thanks mike, i wish more gym showed some of these techniques but until then im glad to have your channel. keep posting brother.
Definitely the best rapport on hard2hurt
Love this drill! Definitely want to try and work it in this week.
There is a Boker knife, which i use in my day to day- one could say- "carry", which is very cheap- so should one be forced to use it, it won't be much of a pain to give it to police afterwards- but also has this little wonderful feature, that you can clip it to inside of your pocket or another option is what in gun terms could be called "appendix carry"- trained with it a lot and i have to say, that in situation, where somebody is already grappling you or even exchanging blows with you- the natural way of bringing your hands to the guard lends itself beautifully to drawing that thing. Keeping knife handle in front is great way of carrying it
good video. very good drill and principle, to pay attention to the disappearing of the hands
You guys are absolute legends.
Hello.
I actually learn this technique many years ago in karate. (Wado Ryu) My sensei said it was used to prevent from drawing the swords or knifes.
Nice to see hard2hurt with KARATEbyJesse. Thanks for the vid
You two are very informative and entertaining. Thank you.
Jesse is a huge guy, never realized this before. Bro is in shape.
Mike is also not a tall guy ;). But yeah I was also surprised at how big Jesse seems here.
THANK YOU for mentioning we NEED lights on our pistols. So many people I talk to who carry concealed COMPLETELY MISS that point!!!
one of the most realistic arm defense videos I've watched so far..
In my paratruper unit teach us to fall down (on your back) in close combat like you show us or knife attack... and pull gunt out while fall back and shoot from graund ..we spare scenarios to learn to have right distance to efective pull and use gun ..we train not to push in ..but to fast get out with fall on the ground and same time pull gun out and shoot
11:38 The Hip Bump? Nah bro that's the Thrust of Freedom from Ameridote 😂
I was listening to a podcast with a former member of the SAS who was asked about EDC in the uk and top of his list was a torch/flashlight. Not on the video topic but it was cool to see more people recognising the humble flashlight.
The best part about flashlights is that they're genuinely useful piece of equipment, so not just in very specific circumstances, and
are practically unregulated so you can carry them everywhere!
A very nice Video. The Interesting Part ist that this Situation ist the Most trained Situation in Aikido. Cause of this they Push If they Grab the wrist. Most people say its BS but in this Situation it makes absolute sense. Techniques Like Sankyo Work great in this Situation.
Best karate channel on YT, but he still get his dojo canceled. xD
This video is pure gold
