Description
Bringing the New Year in Old School Style!
Our latest DVD [Black Box 6] has just been released. The video is just a wee-peek at the kindest bit of info included.
Broadly we cover 6 Major Areas of Historical Combat
One-Throwing Hands “Street Dentist” Style
Two-Rough ‘n’ Tumble Clinching
Three-Fat-Out-of-the-Fire Groundwork Combination Fighter Style
Four-Frontier Trade-knife
Five-Mark’s Submission Candy Corner
Six-Old-School Unleaded Conditioning
For a deeper delve into the 6 topics I offer the complete syllabus for Black Box 6 gratis.
[Keep in mind, just because some terminology may match a modern correlate do not assume the details and tactical applications are also equivalent. Au contraire! The Devil is Always in the Details!]

Vicious Weaponry: Frontier Trade-Knife
Get ready to dig deep into this topic for several months, kids.

- The Spine
- The Skinner
- The Digger
- The Why of Four?
- Non-Uniformity of Tool
- Easier Transference of Skill to Improvisation, that is, one of the four will work with most any object you can lay your hands on.
- A knife ain’t a sword or a stick—lose the idea of any “Angles of Attack” rooted in lengths or ranges not in your hand.
- Frontier Trade-Knife is more about Spheres of Attack than Angles.
- The Grip-Drift Drill
