Knife X Slash Patterns 02

Knife X Slash Patterns

I was trained in a technique that I would call an "X" slashing pattern. This technique utilizes economy of motion in combination with very precise and routinely drilled footwork. The basic concept is that with edged weapons such as a machete or knife, or with sticks or even bare hands in a chopping configuration, an "X" pattern can be extremely efficient in delivering strikes on target.
