Intelligence Operatives
Intelligence operatives operate in the shadows, navigating environments where discretion, adaptability, and survival skills are paramount. Operatives often work alone behind enemy lines or in politically sensitive areas. Edged weapons provide a unique and irreplaceable advantage, whether for silent takedowns, close-quarters combat, or last-resort survival, knife training is a skill every intelligence professional should possess.
Kinetic Operations
For operators working in covert action, direct-action missions, and non-permissive environments, edged weapons provide a stealthy, lethal, and highly adaptable means of neutralizing threats. Whether engaging in silent takedowns, countering weapon grabs, or fighting in confined spaces, a blade can be the difference between life and death. For those involved in kinetic operations, knife training is not optional—it is a critical survival tool.
Diplomatic Security
Diplomatic Security Officers (DSOs) serve as the front line of protection for U.S. embassies, consulates, and diplomatic personnel across the world. While firearms are central to their role, a gun is not always the best or most practical tool in a close-quarters confrontation. In crowded diplomatic compounds, restricted firearm zones, or situations where stealth and discretion are required, defensive knife tactics provide a crucial survival option.
