Title: Hackin' 'n' Slashing
Review: Well, I doubt that I'll ever have occasion to get involved in a fight while my Bowie is close enough to get to...but, I feel pretty well prepared if I do!Coming at this book as a swordsman, I very much enjoyed the points the author made on the applicability of fencing technique to the bowie knife. The Bowie and Big Knife Fighting system is an easy read, an interesting book and a practical form and style guide covering stances, attacks and defenses.This book is friendly to read and pretty easy to follow. Plenty of historical information about how the American knife fighting style came to be (The best of European heavy on the Scott please.) If I loose this book or it gets stolen, I will immediately buy another copy!
