Ladies and Gentleman. Craig Douglas will be in Michigan for his Edged weapons Overview class March 2014.

This class is a must have for edged weapons use and defense. Craig is one of the most sought after instructors in his field. If you carry a knife or if edged weapons defense is a hole in your training, this class is for you. You will not get better training at the cost of $400 for a TWO day class Period.


Date: March 1st and 2nd, 2014

Location: 10820 Pine St, Sumner, MI 48889

Cost: $400 Plus 20 Club fee

Course Description:


Edge Weapon Overview:

The Edged Weapons Overview course is a 16 hour focused overview of knife application methods that will give the student a fundamental and broad understanding of edged weapons. Like all ShivWorks courses EWO is contextually underscored and emphasizes conceptual framework applied through the minimalist, functional toolbox. All software is presented from the “reductionist’s” point of view to maximize retention and maintenance efficiency. Topics to be covered in the course include:

Day One:

The Criminal Assault Paradigm
Managing Unknown Contacts
Default Position and basic blows
Tool Survey
Robust Folder Deployment
Theory of In-Fight Weapons Access
In-Extremis application

Day Two:

Mobility and Zoning Issues of equal initiative encounters
Plyometric Fighting Platform
Point Theory, forward and reverse grip
Conventional Edge introduction
Refining the narrow angle
Reverse Edge introduction
The Functional Support Hand
Specialty and Improvised Edged tools (push daggers, icepicks, screwdrivers, etc.). This module is largely based on what students bring to the class and wish to see addressed.

Equipment Required: Comfortable clothes, wrap-around eye protection, mouthpiece and cup, preferred carry knives.



Advanced registration is required and this class is expected to fill quickly as a Shivworks Classes always do.

Looks like fun! I have played with dussack which is similar and was very popular in the middle ages. Have you guys played with Latigo y daga? It's more of a cold weather/winter sport because you need a heavy jacket.
Is there a charge for spectators in your classes? I'm 61 and would probably get the chicken soup beat out of my by you guys!

I've taken both EWO and ECQC from Southnarc. He is amongst the absolute top trainers in the world today. He stuff is real, from the perspective of a cop who spent a bunch of years working narcotics under cover. You will learn a bunch.

If you are serious about self defense and want ot know what to do when things go really, really bad, take one of his classes.

MDFI is hosting Craig Douglas from Shivworks for his Edged Weapons Overview class on March 1st and 2nd. This is a must have to learn both edged weapons defense and offense. I have trained with Craig numerous times and he is hands down one of the BEST instructors in the United States. The training you get for this price is unbelievable.

The class cost is $400 plus a $20 club fee. You have to pre-register with me and have your check in by February 14th. Do not miss this opportunity!!! The class will be located in Sumner Michigan in an indoor climate controlled building.

Email me for more information. Info@TrainMdfi.com
