Re: Disarmament against non-traditional weapons?

Don't worry about disparaging me. If I'm on the wrong track, then please continue to speak up.

I suppose I was just looking for someone who could handle a knife attack in a way that was not the "big over the head" shomen, big looping yokomen, or step in straight thrust.

I cannot yet move that fast with intent - heck I can barely move slowly with intent! My goal is to be able to move with intent that fast or faster.

If my strategy is flawed, I'm all for learning. I suppose I just was commenting about how far my mental process had gone regarding non-symbolic attacks and that I never consider non-traditional weapons.

Thanks,
Rob
