Shocknife Launches Spontaneous Edged Weapon Defense Instructor Certification

New training will better prepare police, military and correctional officers to survive a spontaneous edged weapon attack!

(PRWEB) July 29, 2008 -- Shocknife™ Inc. revolutionized reality based edged-weapon training scenarios for law enforcement by introducing the Shocknife in 2005. The Shocknife is incapable of cutting, but delivers a localized shock that causes pain, but not serious injury or incapacitation. The training knife is currently being used within hundreds of agencies training academies across North America including FLETC, FBI, Customs Border, Secret Service, Homeland Security and the Coast Guard.

After several years of extensive research, Shocknife Inc. has developed the Shocknife Spontaneous Edged Weapon Defense Instructor Course. This course is unlike any other edged weapon course being offered today to LE. Shocknife filmed scenario after scenario of spontaneous attacks to identify how a human with minimal training will actually respond in these situations. The result is a system that accepts the natural human response and builds in a cognitive response once the brain has "caught up". The system focuses specifically on sudden, unanticipated edged weapon attacks when the officer is not consciously prepared to respond.
