Knife fight
A knife fight is a violent physical confrontation between two or more combatants in which one or more participants is armed with a knife.〔MacYoung, Marc, ''Winning A Street Knife Fight'', (Digital format, 70 min.), Boulder, CO: Paladin Press, ISBN 978-1-58160-252-4 (January 1993)〕〔Walker, Greg, ''Battle Blades: A Professional's Guide to Combat/Fighting Knives'', ISBN 0-87364-732-7 (1993), p. 210: Not all knife fights involve the exclusive use of knives. In one remarkable struggle, Col. James Bowie, armed only with his ''Bowie knife'', killed three opponents carrying both guns and knives.〕 A knife fight is defined by the presence of a knife as a weapon and the violent intent of the combatants to kill or incapacitate each other; the participants may be completely untrained, self-taught, or trained in one or more formal or informal systems of knife fighting.〔〔MacYoung, Marc, ''(Lies About Knife Fighting )'', retrieved 1 August 2011〕 Knife fights may involve the use of any type of knife, though certain knives, termed fighting knives, are purposely designed for such confrontations – the dagger being just one example.
==Traditional schools and methods of knife fighting==
During the long history of the knife as a weapon, many systems or schools of knife fighting have developed around the world. Each is usually distinguished by region and culture of their origin. In past centuries the repeated invasion and conquest of foreign territories by invading armies frequently resulted in the dissemination and adoption of knives and knife fighting techniques. These were in turn adapted and improved upon through long practice and drills, sometimes over hundreds of years.
