ComTech Civilian Training Video

[Mancer]

Hi

Any of you guys seen the Civilian training video by Combat Technologys?

Im most likely gonna get it as well as my Gunting tapes since Ill be carring both a Civie or Matriarch and a Gunting.

Was wondering how good the techniques and training on that tape is for the Civilian.



Many thanx

Hi,
I've viewed the Keating Civilian tape and feel it is excellent. James goes through the "peck"ing strikes, hooking, concentric methods as well as slashing, and comes up with stuff (come alongs to point of chin and groin strikes that will make you flinch!!!) that really puts the options available with the Civilian AND Matriarch in perspective. AND it is (I believe) the only tape available for the Civilian type blade.

They say there's a long tunnel with a bright light at the end. I've been there. it's just REALLY DARK!! :) LOL

You might want to check out some Silat tapes as well, specfically, any that show the use of the Kerambit. Not quite as focused as Keatings tape but might have relevant/applicable methods as well.

Thanx a million guys, appreciate all the posts letting me know.
Unfortunetly Im out of a job the end of this month <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> so Im gonna have to go very easy on my bank balance, the tape with postage will cost me round R400.00 which is a fiar bit for me now that I dont know where my next paycheck is coming from.
I hope to get it soon though.

I wish that Michael's videos came on DVD. I skipped a generation of technology when i got my computer.

Still waiting for a DVD version.

Dear Knife Knut:

I am constantly researching the DVD issue for Paladin. The problem for us is that we serve a niche market. As such, the number of videos we sell is small compared to mainstream. Like anything else that's done n quantity, the more you do, the less the unit cost. Conversely, the fewer you do, the higher the unit cost. We are trying to find the happy medium that allows us a reasonable inventory level of a title (you have to pay tax on inventory, you know) while keeping prices affordable.

We haven't forgotten about you. Thanks for your patience.

Stay safe,

mike j

I have the civilian tapes and they are worth the money. I now carry a Matriarch, and a chinook.

I borrowed Ronins copy of the civy tape and it's about the scariest thing I ever saw. I'm already badgering my local dealer to get a civilian in for me. Speaking of which ronin buddy I swear I'll get that tape back to ya..
