[peterock]

Go ahead and post up any video you might find on it, please...

Heard Master Ken is working on a video and technique right now, stay tuned:

Well fellas, I know you’re supposed to have thick skin to post online. But when I get a guy telling me about stacking my dead body in a pile with others just because of using something they don’t agree,I think I’ll step out and leave it to all the real experts.

You asked for...

"I’m looking for input from people that have serious application advice."

You didn't get that? Or was it that you wouldn't listen?

As much as I've thought about this, I cannot see how strangling someone with a garrote could ever legitimately be considered self defense. Honestly, if I were to ever come across something like that, I'd probably shoot the guy.

You are assuming that everyone sees the whole situation. That hardly ever happens.

What people do is react to noise or commotion. If the initial sighting is of you, with a cord around someone's neck, then you are the bad guy in most people's mind.

That says nothing of the guy that rounds the corner 4 seconds later and sees a headless body, a head, and a dude covered head to toe in blood holding a garrote.

Check out merc cop and modern combative systems. He might teach garrote. Paladin press might have an instructional pamphlet too.

Do you really think that piece of paracord in your pocket is going to be the difference between your life and death in a true self defense situation? If the answer is yes then keep it in your pocket and quit asking what the internet thinks about it lol.

I usually always make sure a thread of cloth is hanging from my shirt when I leave the house. I figure if SHTF, I can pull that thread, wrap it around my fingers, cartwheel across the room and strangle him from behind. Learned it on a YouTube video, trained here and there, got plenty of shirts with holes in them and threads hanging so I’m never without a weapon honestly.

Just another day in Indy

I heard about a guy once who wanted to carry a kite with a big rock tied to the bottom of the tail and could use it to fly around an attacker and bludgeon him with the rock in passing...

Did you pressure test it yet with a buddy willing to actively resist your efforts? What were the results?

Or do you intend for a real deadly force encounter to be when you learn if it works like you think it will or not? We both know which one it is, because this is good idea fairy visits. You didn't actually ask to learn anything, you asked to seek validation for your idea. You didn't get it. You won't find any experts teaching this because it's not the sort of thing any expert would recommend.

Validate it yourself. See if it works outside of your imagination.

Anti gunners call gun owners dangerous and crazy. And a gun owner calls me crazy for having a piece of string in my pocket.

I think pretty much anyone would think you are crazy for having a string in your pocket and the fantasy that it will help you in a self defense situation. Your current audience is just gun owners.

I like the suggestion of trying this out with a friend to see how well it works. If you still think it is a good idea then make sure that you try it again on a guy who is bigger and stronger and angrier than yourself. Please video experiments and post them here to support your contentions.

...but the garrote works so well on TV??? Especially in a vehicle, where no one has the common sense to look in the back seat before they get in...

I was attempting to humorously answer the question about whom do you shoot if you happen upon one person strangling another

What if the one getting strangled was a hijacker holding a box cutter to the neck of a pilot, engineer, or passenger?

Than at the end of the movie you get the pretty girl, the president shakes your hand and the airline gives you free travel for life.

 

[Trapper Jim]

as always…. Defense seems to have a broad meaning amongst avatars…

Then the crew and crowd stomped him to jelly while you were fishing for your shoe string.

But test it. Get a buddy with a trainer blade and see what happens.
