The no spin technique she explains well – that you are brush your finger down the ridge of the knife to retard its spin.

So yesterday while with Miles, I mentioned this old book I had read in the context of headbutting, namely “Secret Fighting Arts of the World” by John F. Gilbey.

Miles had read it too and remembered the story about the “dinky little poke” which was this “secret technique” where a precise shot (aimed thru hit up thru chin to cerebullum?) would rattle the brain and cause KOs. The book also has a neat one about someone weaponized breath and one with a Kiai master.

This guy has a whole series.
