A unique glimpse into this little known but brutally effective (yet elegant) form of knife fighting. Having fenced all through college I recognized some of the positions used; footwork is very similar and I can tell you that a 'good' fencer can cover an incredible distance in very little time. Always interested to see books like this that preserve fighting arts that few are aware of.

Was searching for a book about Sicilian Defense and all I get was this book about a sicilian blade usage and how posture and the position of the knife could be lethal in the right hand and mindset. It was interesting detour to my reading world tour and comeback.

Nicely and simply told truths on knife fighting and self defence in general.
