A high-quality, high performance blade is what you want if you are looking for a self-defense knife. How do you decide which knife to buy? This article will discuss Spyderco Matriarch (Cold Steel Engage), and Endura. We will also examine the Spyderco CQC-7. These blades are both effective and affordable.
Endura
Endura is a folding knife that was made for self defense. It's a good choice if your goal is to have a reliable tool that can be used repeatedly. It has a large blade with plenty of reach and piercing strength, an upswept blade, and a weight-to-content ratio that's perfect for everyday use. In terms of strength, ergonomics and reach, the Endura looks similar to the 1996 BMW M3.
Spyderco Matriarch
Spyderco Matriarch comes in a smaller size than the Civilian. However, it is distinguished by some unique features. Both models are designed for self-defense, though the Matriarch's handle is thicker. Both knives feature a non-reflective coating made of black titanium nitride. The blade of Matriarch features a "S"-shaped reverse design that can be used to cut through tape and envelope seams. The knife's sacrificial ability is enhanced by the use of high-carbon stainless steel.
Cold Steel Involvement
Cold Steel's new Engage series knives are ideal for everyday carry. These knives have a 3.5" stainless steel blade and a patent-pending slide mechanism Atlas(tm), lock, which provide superior toughness as well as edge retention. These knives also have ambidextrous design and contoured GFN handles that provide greater control and comfort. Cold Steel has created the Engage Series with features that make it easy to deploy and carry.
Spyderco CQC-7
Spyderco CQC-7 knives can be used for self-defense. These knives were specifically made for undercover agents. For maximum damage, the blade's shape is a reverse-S. While the tip is more vulnerable than other parts of the knife in extreme situations of self-defense, this is not a problem.
Cold Steel SERE 2000 series
Cold Steel SERE 2000 series knives are excellent for self defense and tactical use. The SERE stands to survive, evasion and resistance, and can be used in a variety of situations. The blade is coated in black ceramic and has a spear-point shape to maximize cutting power. Both blades come with an accidental deployment prevention slide safety.

What does a stun gun do to an attacker?
A stun gun uses electricity to incapacitate someone. It causes muscle contractions which prevent them from moving. They can't fight back.
Stun guns generally work best when they are used on the neck area or head.
The most common use of a stungun is to shoot at the victim's body parts until they become unconscious.
Some stun guns also emit high-pitched sounds to scare attackers. These stun guns are known as TASERs.
What is the most effective self-defense technique?
To defend yourself against an attack, avoid it entirely. If attacked, you should run away as soon as possible. This will give time for you to plan a better defense strategy.
You can use any of the defensive techniques you've learned to help you escape. These include kicks and punches. You may also attempt to grab the attacker's arms and legs to stop him from attacking you even more.
If none these options work, then you need to use every tool at your disposal. Your naked hands are the most powerful weapon. However, if you do not know how to use them properly, then you should consider learning some other form of self-defense first.
Do stun guns hurt people?
It's not true. Stun guns work by injecting a small amount into the skin.
This doesn't mean that you will suffer permanent damage.
How can I learn self defence at home?
There are many options available to help you improve your self-defense skills. Martial arts is the best place to begin. Martial arts are great as they teach you how defend yourself without the use of weapons. They can also improve confidence and strength. Many schools also offer online classes. You don't even have to attend a class. It is important to choose the type of martial art that you are interested in learning. Do you want to learn Kung Fu? Or perhaps Karate? Both of these styles can be distinguished, but they both make excellent choices. They differ mainly in the way they fight. Karate is focused on striking techniques, while Kung Fu focuses more on grappling and kicking.
It is important to check whether they offer multiple forms of instruction when selecting a school. This is the number of martial arts styles that are taught in a school. Some schools only offer instruction in Tai Chi while others can teach you all forms of martial art. Make sure you only study at a well-respected school, regardless of what your goals are. Ask around to see who has been there, and ask about their training history and the background of the instructors. If possible, you should visit the school to meet with teachers.
