• Cuong Nhu Knife Defense
  All ranks » Master Donald Williams

  Will focus on 14 standard knife attacks and defenses against those attacks. Cuong Nhu Knife Self- Defense sets 1-5 applications for Attack #1 (Elbow, Bent Wrist, Pressing Arm Set, 4 Direction Throw & Behind Neck). As an introduction to knife applications, the student should be able to use these sets for each of the remaining attacks. Because of the significant danger involved in knife defense, the defender’s primary attention must be focused on the blade.

This will not teach you to be a knife fighter or not to be cut, but hopefully, allow you to survive.
