Facing the Blade: Principles and Concepts for Knife Defense (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798264190155)

Facing the Blade: Principles and Concepts for Knife Defense

A knife can end a life in seconds. Most self-defense systems fail because they treat knives like training tools, not lethal weapons. Facing the Blade cuts through the myths and teaches what actually keeps you alive.
Diego Plazas provides a streetwise, survival-first approach to knife encounters, focusing on mindset, situational awareness, and real-world tactics. You'll learn to spot hidden threats, manage distance, commit fully when action is unavoidable, and handle multiple attackers or improvised weapons. Legal, ethical, and first-aid considerations are integrated so that survival extends beyond the fight itself.

Packed with practical drills, case studies, and hard-earned principles, this book turns knowledge into instinctive action. When the knife comes out, hesitation can kill. Facing the Blade gives you the tools to survive.
