Figures 1.02e–h. By positioning your knuckles down (“thumb to you”) with your palm against the back flat side of his hand (“prayer” hold) with your opposite hand also facing down and parallel, rotate the assailant’s hand down and away by taking a tsai-bake step. You know where the assailant’s hand is positioned so you need not look at it. Keep your eyes on the assailant allowing you to pan for additional threats. A devastating finish to this technique is a sidekick to the assailant’s nearside knee. Be sure to keep your elbows tight to your torso to maintain maximum control over the attacker’s weapon arm and, when turning, keep the blade away from you. Do not bring the blade across your throat or face while rotating his arm.

Figures 1.02i–l. To remove the weapon from his grip, use the palm heel of your “knuckles to knuckles” hand to punch his wrist toward him using your hips and upper body in concert. For added power, you may momentarily release your grip to cock your arm slightly to palm heel through his wrist. As you break the wrist’s posture, dig your fingers into his palm, wrapping around the weapon’s grip. Use your fingers to strip the weapon and pry it from his grip.

Cavalier #3

      Cavalier #3 is used when you have wrapped up the opponent’s weapon arm from the inside and find it easier to keep the arm wrapped and trapped to apply a wristlock for weapon removal. Similar to Cavalier #2, the Cavalier #3 wristlock involves moving from inside control of the edged weapon arm by trapping the assailant’s arm across your chest.

       Figure 1.03a

Figures 1.03a–d. After you have stopped the attack and sufficiently debilitated the assailant with combatives to establish firm control over his weapon arm, reach your hand across your chest to grab the back of the assailant’s triceps just above the elbow. Keep the weapon arm firmly in control across your chest. Rotate the assailant’s arm, forcing the back of his weapon hand until it is parallel to the ground. Secure the weapon hand “knuckles to knuckles” and peel the hand down placing great pressure on his wrist. Be sure to keep additional pressure against his triceps with your elbow as you strip the edged weapon away. Note: To use Cavalier #3, the attacker must have an underhand grip—not an icepick type or overhand stab.
