Hand to hand & weapons training
Hi folks, forgive me if this is in the wrong place, but the training section didnt seem to cover this neatly.
So now I have a FA, and am going to be doing some training with Big T for that, and hopefully keep it up long term.
I would however like to do the following as well a) buy a really nice SD EDC knife b) learn to use it effectively and c) learn more hand to hand SD skills.
Id like to become a Chuck Norris, but time, funds and lack of facial hair wont allow me that, but I would like to enrol in some type of on going training. I have done some Karate / MMA type stuff on a basic level pre 1994 (no political significance, just the year I finished school), and know of a few different disciplines but am not sure which I should pursue or where I should go. It doesn't have to be a martial arts school, just effective training.
Im am in the Fourways area and would like any advice on a) what type of training I should consider b) which trainer / school / institution I should consider c) what knife and where from.
Many thanks good people of Gunsite

In Pta I would suggest Warrior Sports in Centurion. Main coach is Trevor Clark.

Golani in Pta also extremely good, did my training there and it's the real deal...
Wish I could attend James's course, but unfortunately other arrangements
