Ok, let's get real. How many people have you ACTUALLY SEEN get cut, stabbed or die defending against a knife. Or are your assumptions based on classroom settings where peeps practiced "knife defenses"?
The reason is that it is their specialty. Nothing more. I could say the same for striking based systems and standing based submission systems. And it would not be any more logical than your statement.
As an aside, anyone who fights a knife wielding attacker bare-handed willingly is an idiot. Environmental weapons are your friend.

There are two types of Chinese martial artists. Those who can fight and those who should be teaching dance or yoga!

Forget real, it's more fun having guys in fantasyland tell others they're in fantasyland.
I think reality left the forum long ago.

I bet this guy expended a lot less time and energy than rastlin' him to the ground.
Plus it's funny as hell.

I'm finding quite a few instances of crap TMA working when you need it and they aren't top level MMA either.

Most of the joint locking should start from standing and end on the ground. Only when your opponent is on the ground, your joint locking is then complete.

Unless you use standing joint locking such as "chicken wing hold" to escort your opponent to the police department.

I've had ONE encounter, and he was disarmed through a freakish series of events that happened to work in my favor.

Over the years, I've known quite a few people who got cut badly from knives. A couple died.
Their specialty is submissions. That's why they've figured out that standing submissions don't work very well or very often.

Why are you attempting to hijack a thread about chi na and submissions into one about TMA kicks working or not working?

Too bad it's almost impossible to take someone down like that.

Not intentional, but the subject has veered in that direction a few times with all the TMA is a waste posturing.

That guy have had some really stiff wrists or low tolerance to pain to drop that way. It's like movie fu where the guy stays on the floor unconscious after that kind of move.
BTW, that's not how I learned that one.

I assume you won't believe this can be used to take your opponent down to the ground either.

Maybe if your opponent is a 12 year old girl.
You can check out just about any competitive venue where takedowns are part of the ruleset. There's a reason you never see either of those types of takedowns even though it is common both for an opponent to grab the other's arm and for one opponent to get behind another.

Who is talking about "competition"?
