In a Battle Between Knife Vs Stick, Who will Win? KarambitKnives,com

qcreek11 Sep 24



In the battle between a Knife and Stick, who would win? Of course, it depends who wields these weapons in combat. We’re not talking about stick here as an alternative to a bolo, but rather “a stick” as “a stick”.

Much as the stick will have its reach advantage, the knife literally and figuratively has a lethal edge against it. The reach advantage of a stick may get an opponent a number of bumps, bruises, cuts and even Knock-Outs but just one “in” on a kill-point means death for an unforgiving knife.

Unfortunately, the mean streets have no regard for “competition points”, “heritage”, “tradition”, “culture” and “arts”. In a street fight, weapons are rarely witnesses, they are often complicit and decisive. Hence, it is important to respect the practical law of the streets… “survive. don’t get yourself get killed.” This is why self-defense skill precedes the cultural value of any martial arts.

What I am imparting to you in this video is not only based on martial arts passed down from the FMA forefathers, but from actual street experience. If you don’t believe me, go checkout volumes of police blotters and court cases.

    I mean it's reach and defense versus raw damage potential.

    Totaly agree
    Also one thing
    Even if you have stick or any weapon
    The knife user can throw the knife in your face or your stomach then ur done !!!
    So please for everyone dont act like a hero trying fighting a knife unless you have a gun
    And even tho it stills risky !!!

    A good video for making any practitioner think how to deal with that situation. Ive trained a little in Kali, but more in Boxing as a youngster.
    The jab or the thrust with the Kali stick would be how i personally would defend against a knife. Many thrusts to the head or throat area as in jabbing in boxing has a real disorientation brain shaking effect if done correctly like anything else.
    It all depends on many factors, controlling your thought process by deep breaths under the pressure of a adrenaline surge.
    Un freezing yourself into action.
    I personally would rather have a Kali stick or any stick in my hand in that situation.

    There is a reason people are stabbed multiple times before they die i.e. dozens pf times like in prison or the streets. Stabbing someone to death really isn't as easy as people think it is, even if stabbed to the heart, lungs, or throat. They may die inevitably but they still have plenty of strength left to do something.

    Only defense against a knife attacker is be faster than him or her on foot and run away. If you don't run away, you will be stabbed. No ifs, or buts about this fact, you're going to get stabbed and probably killed possibly. This video is the most real video out there with baton/stick vs knife because the knife attacker is always going to close the gap, and with adrenaline rushing through both people, you won't feel the baton or the stab from the knife. Look at Mike Tyson how many taller people with longer reaches he knocked out just because he can close the gap. All a knife attacker has to do is jump at you, or anything really and you're screwed. Just run if you can outrun them and be faster. If not, then well, try to go for their eyes.

    Today a psycho/drugged patient tried to enter my appartement luckily he was so bad that he picked up a spoon instead of a knife, still he broke my window and the only thing that stopped him were the bars outside of it, I picked up a fry pa and wait inside for police to came, I was naked with a date doing you know what, I have never felt so vulnerable now I’m obsessed on how to properly defend yourself of a knife attack

    but as a professional trainer you should be able to provide useful solutions. this video is useless

    U why did you make this video without giving a solution, in my country many people have been stabbed to death without being able to defend themselves, it is true that street fights are difficult to predict.

    The thing most people seem to not understand is that there is no such thing as a "perfect" weapon. A knife will work very well in some situations and not in others. So will a stick, a gun, or a flexible weapon like a chain or weighted rope.

    But none of them are gonna be able to do it every time, in any situation.

    …and that's without getting into the variable of the person holding it: What's their skill level and experience with what they've got?

    Lastly is the "plain dumb luck" factor… that thing that causes a very skilled and prepared individual to lose the fight because something completely outside of their control happened.

    Oh, and one last thing: Anytime I'm outside of my home, be assured that I have 3 things on me:
    A 36 inch long dogwood walking stick… one or more knives that vary from a 3.5 inch blade all the way up to a 6 inch one… and a gun.
    And even for all of that, my best weapon is still nothing more than me paying attention to what's going on around me, and not getting "blindsided" by some ass hat I never saw coming.

    Let me ask you this. Would you rather defend against a knife wielding attacker with a knife yourself, or a weapon that allows you to stun, break the hands, and possibly even kill your attacker if need be? In my state and country we carry firearms but in the event an intoxicated/angry person attacks me with a knife, id prefer to defend with a baton personally if not a firearm.

    Ive trained kali for two years. I’d take the stick against a knife any day.

    i agree chief,your opinion is better than a particular krav maga instructor who said the stick is more damgerous than a knife due to longer reach

    In the Philippines wood is not considered a deadly weapon. That blade will get you filipino prison food for the next ten years.

    Best defense is to learn how to throw knifes

    The problem with all demonstrations where someone is wearing head protection is that it doesn't communicate the power of the stick. In the past six years I've trained Kali, I've accidentally hit myself in the head half a dozen times twirling a stick, utilizing, of course, only the power of my wrist. This happens after lengthy practice bouts when my form gets crappy. Now, when I get hit in the head with the stick (rattan bat) the stun affect is enough to stop me from continuing any kata or form I was in the process of doing for at least 5 to 10 seconds. What I experience during these seconds is a sense of complete disorientation. So, if I had a knife and was launching an attack at someone and I got hit anywhere on my head even with such MINIMAL force, my ability to continue the attack would be degraded to the point where the person with the stick would be able to get a second head shot in, perhaps with the punyo (butt end of the stick), assuming of course the person is trained with the flow concept of linking multiple strikes together. So, it comes down to the skill level of the person wielding the stick or a baton and the extent to which the attacker with the knife has been able to practice outmaneuvering people with a superior reach. However, a person with a high tolerance for pain can withstand hits to large fleshy parts of the body and continue an attack with a knife. So the lesson is that against a knife wielding opponent, it is better to give up the idea of hitting the hand and concentrate on hitting the head, if you have a reach advantage with your weapon. The concept of "defanging the snake" (that is, striking first at the weapon holding limb) works, in my opinion, mainly in situations where neither combatant has a significant reach advantage.

    Disarming him or hitting his neck probably the only way to shut him down to the ground one good strike to the neck area
