Properly prepared • 300 step-by-step photos • Defense with everyday objects • First aid
Attacks with knives and stabbing weapons are becoming increasingly common, from assassinations to nighttime conflicts or robberies. How do you defend yourself against such attacks and threats? Even those untrained in combat techniques can protect themselves and others with everyday objects such as umbrellas, jackets, shoes, and legal self-defense weapons such as pepper spray. Numerous step-by-step photos demonstrate the necessary techniques and movement sequences, which even the untrained can learn in a short time. Numerous step-by-step images also show how experienced martial artists can successfully defend themselves against a knife attack using specific techniques. A separate chapter is devoted to first aid for stab wounds and cuts when others or even oneself have been injured by a knife attack.
