People who carry a knife to keep their R9 company may be interested in Michael Janich's DVD's. He has had several articles in American Handgunner. He has several DVD's available. I have "Fighting Folders" available from Paladin Press.

Good stuff, when I'm CONUS long enough at a time, I assist teaching Kenpo classes at a local training center. We always teach knife tactics and knife defense....a whole bunch of folks carry knives without a clue how to wield one.

How true!
One of the more arcane passtimes in which I indulged myself in college was to join the fencing club. Our Master was a biology professor at the school who was also one of the coaches for the U. S. Olympic Fencing Team. My blade of choice was the Italian foil. (After each one-on-one lesson with me, I recall that the Master would signal the end of the session by ripping the foil from my right hand and sending it clattering across the floor in a move so fast I never did understand it. :-\)
Back to the subject, though . . . . What I thought was simply an enjoyable extracurricular activity in college proved to be of more use than I would have anticipated in later more serious training sessions with a variety of blades.
