ACE Knife Defense – 8 Hours
The A.C.E. Knife Defense program was developed by Winning Mind Training and is a simple three step system for defeating a knife attack regardless of the line of attack:
• Avoid – move off the path of the knife or penetrate to intercept the path.
• Control – control the delivery system (the knife arm).
• Eliminate – eliminate the threat by attacking vision/wind/limbs.
Avoid – Moving out of the path of the attack. Either disengaging or penetrating accomplishes this phase of the defense. Disengaging requires moving laterally, or to the rear to move out of the path of the edged weapon. Penetration refers to closing the distance, so you are inside the path of the knife.
Control – Control of the delivery system (the attacking arm) is a critical element to defeating the attack. This control prevents the subject from instigating further attacks with the edged weapon. This can be accomplished in a number of ways.
Eliminate – Eliminate the threat is the final component to defeating an edged weapons attack. Edged weapons attacks are lethal force threats and often call for violent aggressive action on the part of the officer to eliminate the threat. This involves grounding the subject utilizing the principles of balance, power, and mobility and ensuring they are disarmed, or cease to be a threat to the officer.
