‘The average reaction time of a visual stimulus is 0.17 seconds. Plenty of time to take decisive action even in a worse case scenario.’
Not a knife defense demonstration, but a reaction time demonstration utilizing a training knife to illustrate the point that decisive action can always beat reaction even in a worse case scenario. In this drill we can learn that if we do not telegraph we can move at a rate that is impossible for a would be attacker to defend against in a static situation.
Thank yo to Mike Z. for helping with the demonstration with Sifu Dale Steigerwald.
