Reviewer: David Decker from Sempai Dragonfly Dojo I have read many books and viewed many tapes on knife fighting/defense over the past years and the one I bought by master Hanho is unequalled! In fact I have just ordered online the other two in the series for use in our Goju dojo and I want to thank you and master Hanho for providing such quality instruction! The moves are very similar to those we have developed through constant independent research and practice, they exhibit excellent flow patterns and are extremely functional, reliable techniques.
Reviewer: Damian Adams from Australia Well put together DVD by respected master Sang H Kim. Covers the basics of knife defense with drills to assist you in your defense. There are some exceptional techniques to immobilise and disarm your opponent.
