Written Summary:
This tape is an excellent value for the money. How can you go wrong with a $15
tape, a full 2 hours long, that's packed with 25 knife defense techniques?
If
you're like me when it comes to knife defense, and you're watching/evaluating someone
else's techniques, you may not always agree with ALL OF THEM. A couple shown on this
tape, I personally would have a problem using in a real street situation. I wouldn't
want to add/use any technique, that I feel comes with a strong chance of getting
cut. Be it not securing the wrist, allowing the forearm to easily be slashed, or
the ribs. Now I'm not saying that there are a lot of "cut proof" techniques,
because I don't believe there are. However I do feel that some techniques carry
a higher risk of that than others. But to each his own. There were over 20 techniques
I liked. And for $15, why miss out on adding a good knife defense tape to your collection?
