Written Summary:

This video is geared toward a very specific target, namely the disarming of an attacker who attacks you with a short weapon ( knife, pistol, short stick ). This is another video from Paladin that is long on practicality and short on martial arts mumbo jumbo. This is the first video I have seen featuring Mr. Keating and I was impressed with Mr. Keating’s command of the martial skills shown on this tape. We are shown a few basic techniques that can be used against short weapons which does not sound that impressive BUT the variations off of these techniques were many ( I counted 48 ). Also, the basic techniques were not complicated and could probably be pulled off most of the time assuming diligent practice on the part of the viewer. Since the video is targeted toward actually disarming the attacker rather than terminating him, one must realize that the number of techniques available to do this are somewhat limited. While I have seen techniques that I would prefer to use over these shown by Mr. Keating, the techniques I am referring to did not involve a disarm. In other words, if you must actually disarm the weapon, then the moves shown by Mr. Keating are effective and appropriate.

Mr. Keating covers some basic disarming concepts such as emptying out, clearing the line of fire (vs a pistol), monitoring the the thumb, best ways to grasp a pistol, disarms vs a two handed pistol grip, and a myriad of other topics.

This video is intended for a very specific audience. Anyone who may be in a situation where the weapon must be extracted from the attacker will find the information on this video very useful. The techniques will work I believe, but be prepared to invest some serious training time to pull them off for real. I emphasize, very much, that some serious training time must be invested in these techniques. As will all disarming techniques, there is very little room for error.
