There is a video out there that was produced several years ago, I think the title was "Survivig Edged Weapons," and it was intended for LEOs. One of the masters in Escrima, Danny Inosanto, helped produce it and was in the video. If you can get it, watch it.
Years ago Massad Ayoob commented on the number of news stories where a victim has been stabbed more than 50 times. You rarely hear of anyone who's been shot more than 50 times.

Where is your Dojo? I'm in OC and not well experienced in martial arts, but I've been looking for a form to start with. Some friends have been suggesting the Gracie studio off the 5.
