Devastating Oblique Kick To Take Out An Attacker’s Knee

Simple But Devastating

The simplicity of this kick is exactly what makes it so effective. When adrenaline is rushing through your system this is exactly the kind of simple and effective move you will be able to remember and execute in the heat of the moment. This self-defense technique targets the knee, which as you know is a very vulnerable joint. Not only is it anatomically vulnerable, but it is rarely defended by an attacker who is much more worried about a punch to his face.

World's Fastest Drawing Knife.

You wanna try out the fastest drawing knife on the planet? Good. Because here's your chance to get it for FREE.

It even comes with a video showing you exactly how to draw this folder from your pocket (one-handed) so that it snaps open and is ready for action in the blink of an eye. (Your buddies are going to be sooo freaked out when they see this).

Breaking It Down

As Paul says in the video, it doesn’t get much simpler than this, and since most common fighting stances put one leg (the lead leg) in front of the other, most attackers will be sending you an open invitation to take out that lead knee.

The key to making this move successful is to strike the knee right when your opponent shows signs of throwing a punch. By making the move quick you will strike him first, taking out his ability to stand and deliver the punch, but keep in mind, this is not a lead-off move. Your attacker must be distracted in order to use this little self-defense trick.

Practice Tips

When you are practicing this self-defense technique be sure to have your partner keep his knee bent and aim for his shin. The knee is very sensitive and even at practice speed landing your foot on a locked-out knee can cause a lot of damage.

With that said, go practice this technique. It’s way too easy not to learn and adds one more self-defense technique to your bag of nasty fighting tricks.

  18. I have said this before and I will, without doubt, say it again. My favourite punch is a throat jab with a tigers paw fist (fingers folded), my favourite kick is to take out the knee. I have done both many times, always with 100% success. Size does not come into it, in fact, a heavier man goes down even harder. Now, once it is understood that ‘we’ know this method, it must be assumed that the opponent knows it too. Defense below the knee is complex, the best method is to just move it out of the way. Always understand that what you know they know. Knowledge is not the reserve of any one person. This knee kick is devastating, it puts the target into a position where you can ensure that they don’t get back up again.

  19. Robert Pippin, a very good point, fighting from a wheelchair is hard.

    An effective weapon to use from a wheelchair is a fishing sinker on a length of string. Half a metre, 18 inches to those in Burma and the USA, with a T-handle on one end and a sinker in the other makes a damaging hole in the target. Make one, play with it, see how it punches through a newspaper. Very easy to use, easy to carry, a low signature on a metal detector and it’s not illegal to carry like a knife is in many places, it also provides reach where reach is limited.

  27. Thank you so much for the videos. I watch them faithfully and remember.
    I am 71. When I was 7 my parents moved from New York to Georgia. I was short, overweight, very tanned and had a funny sounding name. After three years of having my butt kicked by bullies, my parents had me trained at Pete Rademacher’s gym in Columbus Georgia by a French kickboxer and Martial Arts expert who trained Rangers at Fort Benning. Wow, that shows how ancient I am. From age 11 to now, I attribute my self confidence and success to God and the martial arts training I have received over my life. Your videos are great. I recall the moves and play around with my 35 year old stuntman son in law takes every opportunity to let me know just how old I really am. Are there self defense programs for older Karate Kids like myself? You know, so I can surprise my son in law?
