DEFENSIVE HAND-TO-HAND COMBAT Hand-to-hand combat is not a sport; it is designed for emergencies when your life may depend on the ability to outwit or overcome an armed enemy, perhaps with only your two hands. In countering the upward thrust with a knife, both hands form a ‘V’ and are used to seize the wrist and arrest the blow. An effective and inconspicuous lead is obtained by placing one hand on the elbow to keep it from bending while the other hand secures two fingers and the thumb exerts pressure on the back of the hand. www.handtohand22.freehomepage.com /Page2.htm   (3844 words)
