AMERICAN KENPO TECHNIQUES

In the following pages, we will examine the use of the American Kenpo Karambit with American Kenpo self defense techniques; however, I feel that I should address a popular (though incorrect) theory regarding the use of bladed weapons in American Kenpo. This theory is the Theory of the Continuous Cut. In recent years a small segment of the Kenpo community began to promote the belief that the blade of an edge weapon should never leave the opponents body. The theory is that the blade would then deliver a continuous cut over the opponents body, and, in effect, carve him up. There are several reasons to invalidate this theory. 1. This theory does not take into account the opponents clothing. Without sufficient force, the clothing itself can protect the opponent from harm. In addition, the weapon may become caught and thereby expose the defender to a counter. 2. A continuous cut results in only minor injuries. When you are faced in a life-or-death situation, time is of essence. Delivering only superficial cuts on the opponent will NOT result in an end to the confrontation. Only the use of force will produce the desired results. 3. By keeping your weapon arm extended, you increase the likelihood that your actions will be countered. The following American Kenpo self defense techniques will illustrate the proper application of the American Kenpo Karambit. As you experiment with the karambit, do not forget to adapt the self defense technique to take advantage of the capabilities of the karambit. The following American Kenpo techniques are illustrated: FIVE SWORDSsingle blade FIVE SWORDSdouble blade* SLEEPER GLANCING LANCE HOOKING WINGS
*The use of two knives in a self defense technique is popular with the American Kenpo community. We only include this example to illustrate this method. The careful student will notice the difficulties that arise when employing two weapons in this manner.

SLEEPER
As the opponent delivers a straight right punch (or a knife attack), step forward with your left foot and form a left neutral bow stance as you defend with a left inward parry. Your right arm is holding the karambit in Traditional Grip by your side. This may be as the result of drawing the weapon or to conceal your intentions from your opponent.
Pivot counterclockwise and form a left forward bow stance as you deliver an right Angle 7 pommel strike to his face. Your left hand checks the opponents right shoulder.
Step behind the opponent with your right leg to buckle his right leg. Set the blade of the karambit into the triangular notch formed by the shoulder, neck and clavicle. Grab your right hand with your left hand. Finish by applying pressure in an inward downward diagonal motion toward your body.

GLANCING LANCE
As the opponent delivers an Angle 5 Thrust, step toward 7:00 and form a left neutral bow stance facing 12:00. While holding the weapon in Traditional Grip, deflect the attack with an outward parry.
Control his arm by grabbing near his elbow as you deliver a right cut to his weapon hand.
Slide your left hand down and grab near his wrist. Set an outward wrist lock (straight arm). Prepare to disarm the opponent by placing the karambit against the flat side of the opponents blade.
Disarm the opponent as you execute an Angle 5 pommel thrust to the opponents eyes. The opponent reacts by moving away and leaning backward.
Note: Although not illustrated, a right front thrust kick may precede the disarm if circumstances allow; however, you must control the weapon and ensure that you are not moving into its path.
66 17
Leap toward 10:30 and form a left one-legged stance. Control the opponents right arm by hooking the weapon in an outward motion. Cover high with your left hand.
Deliver a right thrusting knife-edge kick to the back of his right knee. Plant toward the opponent and finish with a sandwiching karambit strike.

In the following pages, we will examine the use of the American Kenpo Karambit with the Practice Combat Scenarios (PCSs) of the Elite Fighter System of Modern Personal Combat. Though PCSs look similar to self defense techniques, they differ significantly in their overall structure, theme, application, adaptability, and method of training. For further information on Practice Combat Scenarios, please refer to the Elite Fighters Defender Level Reference Manual. We w ill examine the following PCSs: BEAR CLAW FLAME OF THE DRAGON THE UNICORN AND THE DRAGON STRIKE OF THE RAPTOR PHANTOM CLAW

FLAME OF THE DRAGON

As the opponent points with weapon and places his demands (such as your money), open your arms and ready your weapon (you may obtain your weapon in a manner in which the opponent will believe you are retrieving your wallet. Conceal your weapon behind your leg until you are ready to move (the picture is an exposed view).
Step toward 10:30 and form a left neutral bow stance. Deflect and control the weapon with your left hand as you simultaneously execute a right Angle 3 Slash (in Traditional Grip) to his wrist.
Follow through with this action and return with an Angle 4 Thrust to his kidney. Continue to control his right arm.
As you deliver a high Angle 4 Thrust to his neck, use this motion to bend the opponents right elbow with your right forearm (from behind). This is in preparation for the next move.

Set an outward bent arm lever and secure it with the karambit hooked at the wrist. Finish by applying pressure and forcing your opponent to the ground.

PHANTOM CLAW
As the opponent applies a figure four choke, draw your weapon and hold it in Traditional Grip.
With your left hand, counter grab the opponents grip to relieve its pressure. Execute a right Angle 10 Thrust to his groin or hip.

While maintaining hold on the opponents wrist, apply an inward wrist lock (straight arm). Simultaneously deliver a right Angle 5 Thrust beneath his arm.
