Masters of defense

[Vaunripped]

knife training? you telling me there is more to it than the pointy end gose in the other guy?

 

[Artfully Martial]

that's the easy part...not getting stabbed is the hard one.

Of course, most traditional knife training is obsolete. It anticipates not only that your opponent will have a melee weapon, but that they will also be trained in basic knife techniques have a concept of self preservation. That hasn't been my experience in real life.

The hard part is empty handed versus knife, and that's where the training that might give you a fighting chance begins.

Generally, of course, if the fight is between you with a knife and your opponent with no weapon, it can hardly be called self defense...

I have a few. top Quality when Ray owned them.

 

[Dr Heelhook]

BTW, what knife of theirs did Michael Janich design?

 

[PunisherLcr]

Are you merely adept at self-defense, or are you a Master?

MOD knives are for Masters of Defense only. Any one else shouldn't even touch them. They are that tacti-awesome.

They seem to have forgotten that the best form of defense is ATTACK!!

That's why you need this:

You know it's made for warfare because it says so right there on the blade edge. ON THE EDGE!!

Damn, is that what I think it is?

It is a knockoff of a Darkops knife model that hasn't even come out yet. That just a whole new level of plagiarism.

You got that right, Punisher! A knife's tactical effectiveness is directly proportional to the amount of writing on its blade.

I think it's a linerlock folder called the "Tempest".

It anticipates not only that your opponent will have a melee weapon

OMG, is it +2CS on a successful D20 roll or what?
Melee weapon...

 

[sambo.]

The green smoke is what seeks out and devours weakness....

oh dear lord.

it looks like something designed by a mall ninja after a twelve month meth bender.

i think i'll have to get one of those. just to show the sheeple who get scared by my fallkniven WM1....

WTF IS that?! Or, should I say WTF is THAT?! Is that a blade catcher or a bottle opener at the base? Why is it serrated in so many places? This knife is a stroke of genius, the mere pictures have caused fear and confusion.

I own this knife. I love it. I had the same initial impression..wtf is this thing? Actually the highest quality and most useful knife I have ever used. Didn't mean to hijack or interrupt, just thought I'd throw in some input from a user of the blade. I do think however, that the knife is over kill, and would like a Black Raven, for a much simpler design, and still the quality.

 

[taddster21]

The original MOD knifes are amazing. However..since Blackhawk took over, not all that impressive. Still decent knives, but it doesn't compare to my old MOD by any means.

It is a fixed blade with a wave hook

not sure if serious...

 

[drillsgt71]

I have a Blackhawk Mark I. It's a good knife but not as good as the original. I real would like better steel, A US8 is not bad for a folder but 154 CM or S30V would be better for me. I like the style and the lock, but it's a BIG knife in your pocket. Good thing I'm a big man.

[GRIM 62]

I have an older MOD Keating Hornet,that was made in 98.The 154CM in that takes and holds a real good edge.I carried that knife daily for several years.Don't think I'd buy one of the new ones though.
