New Knife Combat Instructional Blog - Teaches Users How To Fight A Knife With And Disarm An Enemy

Nov. 21, 2008 - PRLog -- FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. –  Author, Andrew Curtiss has decided to give an all access tour into the teachings of his book Combat Application Techniques: Principles Of Destruction. This is a book on knife and hand to hand combat. The blog is an ongoing instructive piece on knife combat. The title of the first blog is, "So you wanna learn to fight with a blade? "Installment 1 of Knife combat instruction". This is the first of currently three installments. Installment 1 covers the authors background and individual perspective on knife combat. It also focuses on the mental aspect of this deadly art form.

The second intsallment teaches the user Curtiss' own "Knife Combat Imperatives". These are basic fundamental principles of Knife combat that th Curtiss also writes about in his book. The third installment is titled "Defanging the serpent", and teaches the reader how to disarm a knife wielding attacker. The third installment teaches two methods; one is with the user also armed with a knife and the other the practitioner is unarmed and faces an armed attacker.

When asked what made Curtiss decide to develop this instructional blog; he replied with.

   "I love to teach. I am constantly researching the internet for new ideas for training,
    and I see that there is no shortage of dim witted masters of fraud; who love to put
    out garbage on their web pages. I am not saying my way is the way, but there is a
    lot of stuff circulating out there that is just not practical. When I look at some of the
    web pages out there, there are guys claiming that their method is the end all, be all
    and "the way". Some of these "Masters" claim they've killed men and been around
    DEATH and have fought in thousands of knife fights. Think about it, if any of these so    
    called "Gurus", did half the things they claim; they would be sitting in the middle of life  
    sentences. I just want to bring real experience and material to the table for the public."
