Well that was gory. Still, I don’t suppose one should be overly squeamish when fighting for your life. That’s when you should go all-in, no-holds-barred, hoping that the resulting blood spatter belongs to your opponent. To that end, most gun guys carry a knife as well as a gun. I don’t now about you, but my knife-fighting skills are just this side of non-existent. Ninja juggling one of my way cool survival knives (which I use for kitchen prep), JWT told me there are two schools of thought . . .
You can stab, slice and dice your opponent’s center mass or “defang the snake” – cut the control cables to the arms and leg. And then go, as Jon puts it, “all stabby.”
Psychologically, I’m ready to do whatever needs to be done to return home after my shift. Practically, I’ve got a razor-sharp Emerson Wave that I carry exclusively for life-threatening emergencies. I carry a second knife for recalcitrant steak and obstinate packages.) But I ain’t got game.
What about you? Do you have a clue what to do when the bad boys come for you and it ain’t no fun ’cause your gun don’t run?
