A knife attack is one of the most chaotic and terrifying threats you can face in close quarters. There’s no time to think—only to react. It’s not about who’s stronger or tougher. It’s about who’s more prepared, who can read the situation faster, and who can act under pressure when everything’s on the line. When you’re facing a blade with nothing but your bare hands, you need to understand exactly what you’re up against—because in close-quarters combat, hesitation gets you cut.
