Anyone can be the subject of a knife attack. Maximize your chances for survival by learning realistic aspects of knife attack and defense.
Forget what you’ve seen in movies and on television—a knife attack is usually fast, furious, and often fatal. When it comes to increasing your chances of surviving, even the best martial arts schools are no match for the hard lessons learned in brutal institutions like Prison.
These deadly techniques were developed in the violence of Folsom Prison and go far beyond what you learn in karate class.
If it’s true that, as a poet once said, “prison is like high school with knives,” then facilities like Folsom are the Ivy League of violence. Serving a sentence at Folsom is like earning a PhD in staying alive. Don Pentecost has done the time so you don’t have to.
Covers valuable information like:
Defending yourself against an attack
Going on the offensive
Training methods to maximize your chances of survival
