First I will say I have been trained and have trained people in knife fighting. A karambit is a special knife for a certain style of fighting. I think a 15 is a better all around knife. I always carry at least two knives.
And in the few REAL fights I have been in, I never had time to get my knives out. I defended myself with empty hands and took the knife away from my attacker. And yes I did get cut, but not as bad as I would have if I tried to get my own knife out. Real fights aren't like the movies! This goes with gun fights also. The only "gun fight" I was ever in, I got shot first. The only difference was I was wearing a vest and he wasn't.
So, continue your training with this in mind. Carry a knife, they are usefull in everyday life. And unless your in the Military or a LEO; if you can run away from a fight, do it! Nobody wins a fight, but you can loose very bad!
