This manual is a combination of instructions, drawings and diagrams created by me to help you better understand the strategy and mindset behind the system that I teach. This is not a book like the others, because all the drawings are made by me. I decided to leave them in the original version, also trying to send you some of the energy, and the time invested by me to create this manual. This material comes as a support in the process of learning and must not replace face to face training. In this manual I try to share some information’s and instructions that I think can help you develop a good set of skills regarding the knife. Everything requires time, dedication and a lot of hard work to achieve a level of mastery. The illustrations that I draw is one of the elements that differentiate this manual from other knife combat materials. I wanted to create images that can help the student understand better this topic by giving them visual explicit content I share in this manual knife tactics, techniques and strategies, teaching you orthodox and unorthodox methods of training, ways of ambushing and how to prepare for counter-ambush situations but also about the philosophy and the combat mindset behind the system that I teach.
