Just got a knife pulled on me

Kizzou · 2020-06-10T19:16:29+00:00

Bro he pulled a weapon on you. Dont let your pride and honor be your downfall. Your life is worth more than that. You did the right thing

A mexican taxi driver once told me what his mother told him; "there's plenty of graveyards filled with honorable men".

boy_named_su · 2020-06-10T18:02:38+00:00

Matt Damon did lots of knife training for the Bourne series. His coach said "so, what do you do if someone comes at you with a knife for real?". Damon says "well, I could do this technique or that technique". The coach interrupted, "no, you run the fuck away"

edit: here's the clip https://www.youtube.com./watch?v=fGO2rsMPNoI&feature=youtu.be&t=1332

I was high on shrooms when I saw it, so I paraphrased...

skyrunner22 · 2020-06-10T18:16:25+00:00

He caught you slipping. Happens to the best of us. Doesnt matter how big or strong you are if the guy has a weapon. Main thing you can do is understand you have to be situational aware of your surroundings always. Have to always be on point, never know when someone is plotting

IXseed · 2020-06-10T17:51:36+00:00

Bro it's a fucking knife lol. You're good. Listen, dudes pull blades out on people as a means to avoid having to fight you. He was after your green and was using that as intimidation.

If you're not hurt, you good.

sherlock98 · 2020-06-10T19:00:10+00:00

Well, you're here typing this. You won

valientote · 2020-06-10T17:50:19+00:00

Dude I had been in the same situation. Yeah it sucks but thats life you are not always going to be in a situation were you have the power and thats fine.

Solic · 2020-06-10T19:53:53+00:00

no matter how tough you wanna be if someone pulls a knife on you, You run or give whatever they demand. Pride over death? thats pure stupidity you did the right thing

mrpoopistan · 2020-06-10T20:00:59+00:00

As someone who has been in what I believe is a well-above-average number of confrontations with armed people, I'll tell you this:

Your best weapon is a calm demeanor.

Generally, people are put off by calmness in bad situations. It puts them on the back foot.

I'm reasonably confident in my ability to handle such a situation physically, but it's never Plan A nor should it be. Use your words and stay calm. If the person was committed to harming you, they'd have done it while they had the element of surprise.

The coolest thing I've ever said in my life was with a gun pointed at my head when I was 16. I knew the guy, and he apparently thought he was going to show me up for some offense. (I'm built like an NFL defensive end, for some context.) Eventually, I got bored with his shit and told him, "If you're not going to shoot me, I'm going home." And I walked away without looking back.

The only time I consider the possibility I'm going to be killed is if the other guy has numbers and his friends seem genuinely interested in a fight. That's rare. Most people don't have it in them.

In conclusion, based on my experience, ya did fine. Try not to ruminate too hard. Ideating about violent scenarios is a good way to end up on the wrong end of one.

HurricaneHugues · 2020-06-10T17:51:53+00:00

You did good though. You disarmed him with words.

2020-06-10T17:49:11+00:00

Ideally should've stiсked the knife up his fucking arse. But realistically if you are alive and well, doesn't matter if a drug addict thinks you are pussy.

Rolfenstien · 2020-06-10T17:51:38+00:00

I understand the frustration. We humans strive for control over our lives and when it’s suddenly taken away from us we feel like we’ve lost frame.

You reacted as any sane person would, if you had money you would’ve likely have it to him. Just because you’re huge and he’s 5’5 doesn’t make you knife proof and invincible. Honestly if you had tried to make a move you’d be an idiot. Who cares if youre even a “pussy” for not doing anything, you’re still alive.

Better to be a pussy than to be dead

i-am-the-prize · 2020-06-10T19:37:40+00:00

Jeff Cooper's " Principles of Personal Defense " is more than just about firearms. You should have seen his body and the knife, ideally. If you're sitting in public, at a place of business where others can assume you have funds in a time when many are bitter, angry and withouth means (covid+Floyd), you MUST be on alert.

As for what to do,

1) you retreat, if possible.

2) you can try words, as you did, good that it worked.

3) if retreat is impractical (ie You have your kids in the store, you're gimpy) and your words fail, as your last resort: you fight back if your life is truly in danger. How? see Jeff's book.

Pay more attention to your surroundings , buy a gun.

hibloodstevia · 2020-06-10T20:56:26+00:00

If talking your way out is not an option, this is what G. Gordon Liddy had to say on the subject:

First decide which arm you want to sacrifice. Then move towards the attacker. If you back away, he takes one swing after another.

If he gets you in the arm, he's done, now take the knife away and fuck him up.

Liddy was in the Army, FBI, and in the federal pen. Not the worst guy to speak to on matters of personal defense. Plus he's a total badass.

flatox · 2020-06-10T21:23:29+00:00

Well i have done krav maga and while i have trained an so many different knife scenarios- if you're in a relative safe country, just give them wtf they are asking for, it doesn't matter how tough you think you are, just do it, then run.

Never lean in/down towards the knife, and always keep your eyes on it, and run as soon as it is "safe" to do so.

If you are in a country that is not relatively safe, and homicide is something that happens often like in brazil etc., then read the situation, and if your gut is telling you something is wrong and this is about to turn real bad, well i would say do what is necessary but without training you're not gonna get far. Just never ever try to fucking grab hold of the knife, because you wont, your hand will slip and you will fucking die. Your best bet depending on the knife postion, is a swift and hard palm-punch to the knife away from you, with an instant follow up punch to the face, followed by a hard kick to the groin and fucking bolt out of there.

Check yourself for stabwounds asap after because there's a good chance you wont have noticed if you got one, mosy people who are stabbed think they just go punched because they dont feel it at first.

But really, train krav maga if it's just for the sake of everyday protection. It's developed for iranian military with a focus on the most effective way to eleminate a threat. No rules, no regard for the life of the enemy.

If you want to also compete, then i hear brazilian jiu jitzu should be pretty awesome too.

4LW4YS0NG34R · 2020-06-10T18:20:50+00:00

Bro, in a knife fight each part die, the first one dies in the scene, the other one die on the ambulance. Your life matter more than some cash, and be aware, in a combat, the one who get the first shot has the better hand, so, if you're surprised by a sneak attack, de-escalate the situation. Muscles cannot stop a knife, cannot stop a bullet, cannot stop a explosion. If you're met with a fight hand to hand situation, defend your integrity, if you're on a knife fight or on a gun fight, defend your integrity, but in this situation integrity means health and being able to get out alive, ready for the next day.

intl_plyrs_clb · 2020-06-10T20:26:31+00:00

When I was ~16 I was in a phonebooth and pulled out my fancy new camera phone to look up a number since I had no calling credit on the phone.

Group of guys around my age surround the booth, start asking about the phone, asking to see it.

I realized I was in a bad situation, no way I'm fighting off 6 guys. I start trying to talk my way out of it.

One guy grabs the phone out of my hand and draws a knife then they all draw knives of all types: butterfly knives, butchers knives, steak knives, pocket knives, tactical knives, you name it , they had it. And I'm cornered in a phone booth.

They took off running and I chased them. Gotta get that phone back right? I'm not going to give up without a fight right?

They run into a project building and as I chase after them and turn the corner one guy swings a butchers knife onto my shoulder.

The blade just bounces off my shoulder, must have been dull or maybe it hit at an odd angle. Doesn't matter because right there and then I relized that the phone wasn't as important as my life and health.

Was my ego bruised? Yes. I had to meet up with my girlfriend at the time who was with her mom and sisters and they walked me to the police station to file a report. The next day my parents took me driving around the area so I could see if I spotted the guys to give help the police with a better description. All of this while I just felt like a shrivel of a man, but I was alive.

The feeling will pass.

Don't get into fights unless your life absolutely depends on it. You can make more money or buy a new phone, but not a life.

The prize for winning that fight would be "you get to walk away with the same number of holes you arrived with".

The prize for not having that fight was "you get to walk away with the same number of holes you arrived with".

Your goal, when faced with a force multiplier you don't have, is to survive. You survived. Good show. Best possible outcome.

What would I have done? I'd filled him full of 5.7mm or 9mm holes, depending on what I was carrying that day. I may have a couple of black belt ranks and a winning fight record, but the reason I win fights is that I don't voluntarily enter them without a tactical advantage.

You did only 2 things wrong:

Be out and about in public without a weapon on your person.
Be unaware enough to let him get close to you.

W_O_M_B_A_T · 2020-06-11T00:44:34+00:00

Why did this dude pull a fucking knife on me?

So, he was willing to go to jail for assault with a deadly weapon and armed robbery.... to earn pocket change? Willing to risk getting high velocity lead poisoning from someone with a concealed pistol?

The issue was the guy was a class A fucktard, and probably withdrawing from fentanyl or something.

Not a clinical retard, he was merely fucktarded. You can identify fucktards from the fact that they do buttersnap fucktard shit.

Wouldn't give him big odds of being sober.

I've heard that opiate withdrawal can be like getting a full body muscle cramp while rolling naked down a hill made of broken glass or IV needles.

I can’t do anything against a fucking knife no matter how big I am.

I mean, if he was a skinny short junkie chances are you might have gotten cut on your arm or stomach, before you curb stomped the guy. But is it worth risking getting a massive laceration to save a few bucks and prove some kind of point? Probably not. So you made the right call.

I know my words got me out of this situation.

Nicely done. You kept a cool head.

I think what you have is called having an ego. Your ego wants to paint you as being some a "pussy" because you decided talking it out was a better option than trying to repeat violent fantasies you'd seen in movies and TV.

The Ego sure loves it's fantasies and narratives.

If this was, say, a small mediaval town and chances are you knew someone who knew who guy was, I would definitely recommend getting together with your bros and hunting the bitch down, then breaking a couple of his fingers and teeth.

The problem is, people haven't quite forgotten the small town or tribal mentality even though most people live around fairly large cities with hundreds of thousands or millions of citizens.

Learn Krav maga or buy a gun. You lost at lack of preparation. In the situation you were in, no, there was no other course of action. But are you going to do one of either now?

Sweatingtoomuch · 2020-06-10T21:11:34+00:00

The dude clearly has nothing to lose and you probably do. You made the right move by not fighting back because it could’ve turned ugly and would not have been worth It.

Not sure where I saw this but I think it was some professional martial arts self-defense guy talking about even if you are highly trained, the chances you are wounded if you opponent has a knife is like 3/5.

It's just not like the movies, never fight someone with a knife. Things move too quick and you will get cut or worse.

You are not a pussy. You just got got. I would, like you feel tremendous shame in having been in such a vulnerable position. Maybe for you it's even more emasculating as he was 5'5. Perhaps it's the closest thing you've had to a potentially violent encounter, and you shattered the tough guy self image created for yourself. All I know is that it's a very humbling experience when another has the option to take your life if he so willed it. The anger will go away soon, but make sure to never let your situational awareness be so shit again.

TheTrueLordHumungous · 2020-06-11T00:14:34+00:00

He had a weapon, you did the right thing. Next time though toss the money on the ground and shoot him while he’s distracted.

asskisser · 2020-06-11T00:26:11+00:00

I did martial arts with various weapons for long. Short blades like knives are the most dangerous weapon in melee dude. This shit can fuck you up and end your life it’s not joke.

This isn’t a movie, if you have to run away or be a “coward” you are going to be a coward. I am sure if your daughter was there you would protect her, other than that there is no reason to act like Rambo, it’s a good opportunity in wasting your life

Aymen_B-Rabbit · 2020-06-11T00:27:00+00:00

I had the same thing happen to me, except the man stole my phone out of my hand and pulled the knife and told me to let go or he'll hit me with it, I panicked and let go and than ran after him but it was too late, the shit was traumatic, my pride and my ego took a big fucking hit and it fucking killed me with overthinking alternative scenarios but there's nothing you can do, it'll take you days to recover, but I still think about it 1.5 years later

Skylights1000 · 2020-06-11T00:28:49+00:00

Understand you’re stronger for not fighting to protect yourself ego, then to actually give in.

Let it go mate. There is no point ruminating about the situation, you have dealt with that in a correct way.

Sometime walking away from stupid fights is a best option. If you are good in martial art, mma or boxing then it would have been a different story. But as you don't have these skills then one stupid move could have got you injured and you would have ended up in hospital.

Nobody knows how they’ll react until the situation actually happens to them. Life isn’t like the movies. In a way I think it’s cooler that you stood your ground and didn’t run away... but cooler could also get you stabbed. If you ever find yourself in a similar situation you’re better off running away

akihonj · 2020-06-11T06:49:33+00:00

Listen dude you talked your way out of it, with a knife, take this from somebody who studies martial arts, you did the best thing you could do.

You'll see on films that the hero takes on somebody with a knife and wins without a scratch, not real life, not in any way real life. If you get into a knife fight with somebody the best outcome is that you get to the hospital first and are still alive when you get there.

That you didn't have any money on you, I personally never carry cash for exactly that reason, took away his motivation to carry on with it, why rob somebody who isn't carrying anything worth robbing.

You did ok, put this to bed and move on.

jacknifejones · 2020-06-11T07:04:03+00:00

Hello. Martial arts instructor here.

As other posters have said, by the time you were aware if the knife being pressed at your side in a seated position, there was very little you could do. At this point the tactical options would have been very limited and only a few martial arts like krav maga actively prepare practitioners to deal with this specific situation. So even a boxer or Muay Thai practitioner's skillset, as awesome and useful as they are, would not give them awareness of what to do in that specific situation and chances are the knife would go in if a physical response was initiated.

So let's say you had drilled in krav maga for that specific scenario. Even so, initiating a physical response would be a dangerous proposition and the chances are high that you would get stabbed, slashed or cut in the process. This is because of several factors: 1. Action is faster than reaction. All the attacket needs to do is thrust he knife several inches forwards while you are trying to do a series of large co-ordinated movements to stop him before he can do that.

Adrenaline dump is real. Even if a skill is trained in to the body, adrenaline and fear will quite frankly cause you to be shittier in application than you are in the gym or dojo. The only compensation for this is to have drilled the skill into your muscle memory through thousands and thousands of reps.
Body positioning of the attacker relative to you and being seated in close proximity. A lesson in itself. Real fights started by criminals are never mano y mano. Why would a criminal want to engage in a man to man contest. They ain't trying out for ufc!

So what you are feeling is loss of ego and face for not standing up to the bully. Ignore that ciltural programming bullshit. Thinking in terms of pure tactical necessities, you made the correct choice.

5t3fan0 · 2020-06-11T07:52:04+00:00

deescalate is better than running which is 10000x better than fighting. the knife doesnt care if you're a 7ft or 5ft, it cuts arteries just the same.

you did good bro, shouldnt have done any different imo

Crixusgannicus · 2020-06-11T10:27:27+00:00

1)Get some fucking situational AWARENESS! This dude sneaked up on you because you were sitting on your fucking ass with your head UP your fucking ass. Be aware of what the fuck is going on around you and WHO the fuck is around you AT ALL TIMES.

2)You ARE the walking dead. He had you. COLD. If he knew what the fuck he was doing and wanted you dead you would be dead right now. DEAD DEAD DEAD. Guaranteed.

Fuck, if he DIDN'T know what the the fuck he was doing he had an EXCELLENT chance of killing you or at least fucking you up SEVERELY.

Here is one way out of THOUSANDS to kill you FAST with a knife. GENTLY put your hands on the either side of your neck. Feel that movement? You have two carotid ARTERIES on either side of your neck. Slice one or two of those open and you WILL bleed out (DIE!) pretty damn quick.

3)Size? " I’m much bigger than him"? Don't mean SHIT! You think you could stop Bruce Lee from fucking you up? You actually think you could have stopped THAT guy from fucking you up when he had the advantage of surprise AND a weapon?

Back to number one. SITUATIONAL AWARENESS IS EVERYTHING.

4)"Having" a gun is no guarantee. USING a gun is no guarantee unless you know what the fuck you are doing and doing RIGHT and do it IN TIME. Don't take that the wrong way though. I'm not saying a gun or other weapon is useless, it's best to be ARMED, ideally legally, but depending on the circumstances, always remember, better tried by 12 than carried by 6.

A motivated knife attacker WITHIN 20 FEET (about 6 meters) even if you HAVE situational awareness can close the range and attack faster than MANY people can draw a concealed pistol.

Even if you draw and fire first, unless you get a CNS (central nervous system hit, spine or BRAIN), he can still keep coming. To do that you need SKILL and PRACTICE.

I could go on and on on the topic(s), but time for morning exercise.

WRXLad555 · 2020-06-11T11:21:10+00:00

A knife fight is different. It's all about who bleeds to death first. Doesn't matter whether he is 5'5 or 6'4, he can still inflict damage with a knife and you can be lying down bleeding to death. Best off avoiding situations like this for your own good.

In this situation you’re obviously better off complying or just running away, but I gotta say, a lot of the time anyone who pulls a knife is a pussy. Sounds backwards but carrying a weapon just shows you’d be nothing without it. I know a guy who had a knife pulled on him and he responded very calmly like “okay, and what big man?” Or something along those lines. Won’t always work but the guy with the knife on my mate backed off with no hesitation.

Your life is worth more than a few bucks.

That sucks and I have been mugged a few times. I know the anger that comes with it.

You did the right thing and lived.

That's smart and brave to suppress your natural urge to pull that guy's head off... you might have killed him and been arrested.

Glad you aren't stabbed and dying!

Been chased by a group of dudes with knives through a parking lot. Kinda sameish scenario, they came up to me and asked if I remembered them. I said no and they said I owed them money. It was 3 AM and nobody was around. Ran for my life and made it out. For a long time it made me feel angry and I had thoughts about finding them and killing them for doing this to me.

My ego felt hurt, but years later and I have completely forgot about it. You're fine

Most experts agree the best thing to do in knife fight is avoid if not run. They almost never end well. Yeah you're bigger and prob could of overwhelmed him and maybe could of even avoided his knife but the potential for serious damage to your body is too great. Lets say even if it's a 25% chance he stabs you before you immobilize him, that 25% could be life threatening.

Yeah I had a similar situation happen to me. Got held up at knifepoint when i was on vacation. Yeah you feel like a bitch afterwards because it's emasculating. Don't sweat it man.

You did well man but if someone pulls a knife on you be prepared to book it

You used the best weapon you had at the time available to u...your wit. Don't underestimate that.

Also, check out some youtube vids on self defense how to disarm a knife attack. Not saying you should try it, but it'll at least give you an idea as to what goes into being able to take a knife away from an assailant. You might realize that you did a great job and not be so hard on yourself.

Man there is no glory in winning a knife fight. Imagine you got stabbed with this shit. God knows what could have been on the knife.

Give him your money. Fuck you mean. No time to player super hero out here. You wouldn’t be asking on reddit if you were actually a bad ass. You would have smashed the boy as soon as he pulled it

So which one was it, he held it to your stomach or your throat? Feels like a LARP, go lift.
