    CLOSE QUARTERS COMBAT KNIFE
    & Empty Hands

    October 1, 2017 - Shaefferstown, PA


    TOPIC: The knife culture on the streets is growing, not shrinking. Knife attacks are up world-wide and in some instances, racking up the same body count as active shooting events. Most people are grossly under prepared when it comes to handling a knife-wielding assailant. Knife training is the best way to survive and counter a knife attack. Many people include a knife in their every day carry, but few are trained to use it. That changes now.
    This introductory course presents the basic system of skills with the knife for use as a personal defense weapon or as a backup to your concealed carry firearm. This course will give you the skills and confidence you need to effectively employ the knife tactically, while increasing your ability to detect and defeat potential threats.
    Special emphasis will be given to:
    • Recognizing Knife Motion & Patterns
    • Flow & Directions of Knife Attacks
    • Footwork to Protect Yourself
    • Counter-Offense to Neutralize the Threat
    • Realistic Empty Hands Counters Against Knife Attack
    • Hand to Hand Combatives Training, AND MORE!!
    GEAR REQUIREMENTS
    Rubber Training Knife (Boker training knife recomended)
    Eye protection
    Hyrdation & snacks for sustaiment during training
    Boxing mitts, hockey glove or other hand protection gear is recommended, but not required.

    Default Re: Urban Survival Weekend - Combat Pistol Level 1 & 2 and Close Quarters Knife

    Do you train without one in the chamber like the Israeli's do?
    Gotta say, Im not much of a fan of that.
    But the rest of the class looks great.

    No one is a fan of that. Trust me.

    The idea of the class is to expose shooters to something new (actually more different than new). The takeaway from that class has NEVER been - "It is ok to carry empty chamber", it has always been something else.

    There are a few aspects of the israeli method - point shooting at close quarters for example, that do appeal to me. Others obviously have different takeaways.

    I have taken that class so many times, i just jump right to Level 2. Level 2 is a lot of fun and yes NO ONE carries or trains empty chamber on that day.
