Joe Maffei – The Reality of Edged Weapons

Joe Maffei – The Reality of Edged Weapons

When you find yourself facing an opponent armed with a bad attitude and a knife, your only hope for survival is a solid grounding in realistic knife tactics and the fighting spirit necessary to make them work.

In this groundbreaking video, JKD expert Joe Maffei rips away the myths of knife combat and shows you how to combine technique, physical attributes and attitude into the ultimate edged-weapon system. Featuring graphic footage shot on location in back alleys, swamps and prison cells, it shows you what it’s really like to fight with and against edged weapons and why many commonly taught techniques can get you killed on the street.

It also reveals how Maffei integrated his Brazilian jiu-jitsu training (learned directly from Rickson Gracie) with edged-weapons tactics to create a revolutionary knife-grappling system that has previously been taught only to his private students and the U.S. Army Special Forces. For information purposes only.
