Training blades will be supplied or you can bring your own. This is the full blown defensive edged weapons class I held for S+W's Training Division for several years. If you carry a clipped folder on your pocket, this class is for you. Learn how to utilize that folder to defend yourself should you be in a non permissive environment that doesn't allow you carrying a firearm for some reason.
We'll be covering this curriculum that weekend.
