Wee" To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Subject: [Eskrima] Re: Conceal Knife Recommendation Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net On the eve of Xmas, my wife wa robbed right in front of my house. My wife, who has no prior martial art training nor an athletic type, raised her shin straight into the guy's groin, broke her umbrella over his back and pressed the auto gate's remote controll to release our two dogs. The 2 robbers fled. During the whole incident, she was so scared that she can't even mutter a word. I was right at the back of the kitchen preparing the turkey and only realised what've happened when my dogs barked. I thank God that she reacted so fast that the robbers have no time to hurt her, but next time she might not so lucky. I am thinking of getting her a concealeble fixed-blade, something easy to conceal and fast to deploy (she had a can of pepper spray in her bag dueing the incident but can't get to it on time). Something menacing enough to keep the threat away from her long enough for her to scream or get her pepper spray out. Your recommendation will be vey much appreciated. Thanks. S. H.

I have been a member of this group for a while. I have never responded to, or have started a discussion thread. For some reason this thread got to me because it is a tangible attack against a loved one . An attack that could have happened to any of our wives, children or significant others . This is not a story of a hero from Ancient past or about a bar fighter, or a discussion on the application of a particular technique or concept. To the gentleman below , a brother in the arts , Here is my recommendation for a small fixed concealable blade http://www.hideawayknife.com/main.php Geojazz " You put what in my drink !!!!"

I think a punch dagger is pretty fail safe for a woman, as it doesnt require alot of skill to use, and can be quickly applied with great power. --__--__-- Message: 5 From: Ray Subject: Re: [Eskrima] Re: Conceal Knife Recommendation To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Date: Tue, 27 Dec 2005 08:29:38 -0800 (PST) Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net > , a brother in the arts , Here is my recommendation for a small fixed > concealable blade > > http://www.hideawayknife.com/main.php The little hideaway is a good way to go.
