In this important DVD series, Grandmaster Pellegrini, the Founder of Combat Hapkido, personally explains and demonstrates the use of the knife (and bladed weapons in general) in Self-Defense. This instructional course, presented in a combination of lecture and seminar format, is NOT intended to make you a "knife fighter" or an "Expert Instructor" of knife tactics. The "Combat Hapkido Defensive Knife" is a limited program designed to supplement and complement your empty-hands skills, and teach you the basic use of the knife in a self-defense situation against an attacker armed with an edged weapon. There are serious moral and legal consequences involved in the use of any weapons in Self-Defense, therefore carry and use a knife ONLY where and when legally allowed. Practice in safety and only with training weapons!
