Mishap on the home front

MMM 21 feet ..thats 7 yards....thats 7 steps= about 2.1 seconds = the average draw
a 4.4-40 is really fast....; )
Glad your Ok

On this note, some defensive training would help too.
Take some basic Tae Kwon Do. It teaches you a core set of defense techniques which would play into this area. A great technique for this would be to use the persons energy against them. As they charge you, you center your mass and when they are one step away, in a fluid motion step to the outside, grab the wrist and rotate your body insuch a manner as you force their arm to rotate with the palm facing up. This naturally causes the hand to open and to immobilize their hand and arm. They will drop the knife and you have full control. You can continue to roll the arm in the "police method" to lock it behind their back and then perform a take down.

No, because your knife will not penetrate my body armor and while you are trying to stab me, I will hit you with a palm strike in the nose, instantly driving bone fragments into your brain, while continuing my turn, drawing off hand out of my holster, racking the slide one handed on my leg, and firing the fatal round into your cerebral cortex.

If your gonna keep a defensive tool about keep it "hot"..... "Hey, wait a second while I find and load my gat" just won't cut it.

All you guys sharpen your knives before you put them in your pockets too?

Silly Internet Warrior..... I bought the chain mail headpiece that was in the classifieds, and wear it under my SWAT helmet, it has a piece that hangs down the neck. Of course, I wear Kevlar gloves that cover my wrists as well!!
