Modern Knife Combat : The Training Of A Knife Fighter

Rating:
Summary: Save your money
Review: Don't be fooled by the title of this book or even the description under "Editorial Reviews" above. There's no knife fighting instruction to be found on its pages; instead, you get to see countless pictures of the author with well-known teachers of the bladed arts (as in "look how well-connected I am"). A better buy would be Michael Janich's "Knife Fighting: A Practical Course", or Hochheim's "Knife Fighting Encyclopedia".

Summary: Excellent design, poor in contents
Review: This book has a lot of interesting photos, but lacks in real techiniques or traning hints (the traning target construction apart). The author explains only few basis and some philosophy of the knife fighter. By the way i suggest this book to whom are really beginner in knife fighting.

Summary: WHAT A WASTE
Review: this book stinks, it had absolutely no point to it what so ever. the plot just rambled on forever. the main character never had any growth throughout the book. he never mentioned any other characters, except for maybe "fig. A & B". the author never changed the plot or changed the direction of the characters purpose. my four-year old sister could have written a more entertaining novel than this. although it was extremely dull and boring, dry in all aspects of humor and adventure, it did have a great tutorial in modern knife combat. if your looking for a great scientific novel, don't get this book.
