EDGE WEAPON RESPONSE COURSE

Edged  weapons are part of the fabric of our society. They can be found  everywhere, they are silent, never jam or run out of ammunition and for  many people edged weapons bring on a fear like no other attack. Edged  weapon attacks are up close and personal. Many surviving victims of  edged weapon attacks will often admit later that they never saw the  weapon. Real edged weapon attacks are not West Side Story. Surviving  victims describe the sensation of being "punched". They  will recall when their attacker left them for dead. How they realized  they were bleeding, often by feeling the wetness of their own blood as  panic set in and they began to assess the severity of their injuries. 

While  no one can promise you will never face this situation, we can offer  training that will better prepare you to recognize an edged weapon  attack, minimize the damage you sustain and survive the incident through  proper application of principles, concepts and techniques to include  the use of your duty weapons and tactical medical procedures. 

Our  edged weapons response course is taught by seasoned LEO Instructors who  have decades of experience dealing with violence in prisons and in  society. They have personally dealt with armed attackers, interviewed  victims and assailants involved in edged weapon incidents and  investigated the causes of such incidents. In this course, students will  learn modern physical tactics skills that best deal with edged weapon  attacks and how to manage/control distance, to use barriers and to  integrate the tools you carry as a police officer to survive these  situations. This is a force on force program with the use of Simunition  training, Aku Strike and Shock Knife training aids as well as FX related  scenario effects (fake blood). 

*Can be combined with our Weapon Retention Course for a 4 day program. Contact us for pricing and hosting a course!
