And pretty effective as well.

The Krav Maga knife style is really good.

Yeah but personally I’d say to look to the Brazilians when it comes to really hurting someone. They’re not just teaching competition legal moves down there.

There’s really no right way to go against a knife. I’m not sure I’d recommend disarming unless you’re really confident in your ability to outmaneuver them. Otherwise I’d say run or fucking hurt them, preferably with something that has better range than a knife.

The only thing they teach about knives is how to disarm. You will be cut, however, that is almost certain.

Rather, the style of knife fighting that Krav Maga teaches is good, or at least superior to other styles I've studied. Krav Maga knife focuses on cutting tendons and ligaments to disable rather than going for arteries to let the opponent bleed out.

Old joke: how do you tell the winner of a knife fight from the loser? - The loser dies the scene, the winner dies on the way to the hospital.
