Ok. I like a lot of what I've seen so far on Funker Tactical. But several things suggested in this video will just get you killed. One physical experience trumps 1000 expert opinions. And my experience, limited as it may be says, fights don't work out that way.
Hey, Doug, I'm a lefty, and so I'd be using this knife in my left hand, but the weapon is designed to hook onto my right pocket. How would you recommend that I store this karambit in my left pocket to ensure that I can still effectively whip it out and flip out the blade?
The common problem when flailing a karambit is it's catchable by the grip, so don't do it unless your enemy is under control or in submission hold…. in that way you can harm him without lacerating!!!
I've been looking to get a folding karambit. And I like the idea of the pressure point manipulation with the blade closed. That's the main reason I want a folder. But my concern is with the Emerson wave feature. That's great for quick deployment, but wouldn't the "wave" impale your finger upon impact if striking with it while closed?
Knife manufacturers should really start making trainer versions of their knives and just sell them paired up with the actual knife. I'm tired of training twice just to get the same level of skill I attained with a trainer. What a waste of time.
Good video but I wouldn't use the flipping in a real combat situation, cause it makes you extra vulnerable for a possible disarming, and not recommended as an impact weapon (by flipping) with it's only 100g weight because the damage you can cause is absolutely futile, in a leather jacket he wouldn't even feel that, slashing with only one finger in the ring can break your finger just from the blade getting caught in the opponents clothing. Flipping with a karambit is nice show-off before friends and looks good in the movie, but there is no place for it in a real combat.
That's not your "mcp" (metacarpal phalangeal joint) 4:00. Those are your pip and dips (proximal interphalangeal joint and distal interphalangeal joint)
That thing doesn't weigh more than half a pound. Whatever you're doing at 7:00 is pointless and you're better off throwing a real punch.
In a actual fight your adrenaline will be up and all dexterity will be lost. You should just stick to holding the knife the way it's designed to be held.
I don't like this because you are putting people at risk of being hurt in a real fight with these flashy moves that are impossible to effectively use. They just need to use their common sense on the most stable way to use a knife.

Suuuper Doug
you are simply great Doug
is great Mr marcaida
Please tell me you have more vids on this
lel, i could just walk up to this guy with any normal knife and just stab him, karambits are ass.
I know that they are fantasy knives, but could the "Chronicles of Riddick" 'ulak' knives be used similarly to a karambit?
That's One Fucking!!!! Dangerous,…. Weapon!!!!….

How well does the linerlock hold up on this knife? Has it ever closed on you while in use?
Does the folder karanit the same as a pocket knife

i think the "flail" attack style should only be used with double edged karambits
I noticed the spiderweb tattoo on your student's elbow. What gang was he in?
doug marcaida sir how about having a karambit in both hands is that wise or a bad idea?
Cali
mmmm salamat po

such a brutal weapon and martial art, sounds like someone's gut is hanging, I like it.
Jesus help us i love the karambit i hope i never have to use it in self defense

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.ca/itm/122079111130
are these legal in Texas?I've heard that if a blade is no longer than 5 inches then it's okay to own one
Just sayin', he said to hold the karambit between the 'mcp', but the rest of the vid he holds it like he said you shouldn't.
wrong info or bad acting?
does doug have shares in Fox knives ?
I actually have one
I've been watching your videos for a while I've never said thank you. Thank you thank you & thank you again sir
He seems like a really cool guy, I wish I had a teacher like him
