Figures 1.02e–h. By positioning your knuckles down (“thumb to you”) with your palm against the back flat side of his hand (“prayer” hold) with your opposite hand also facing down and parallel, rotate the assailant’s hand down and away by taking a tsai-bake step. You know where the assailant’s hand is positioned so you need not look at it. Keep your eyes on the assailant allowing you to pan for additional threats. A devastating finish to this technique is a sidekick to the assailant’s nearside knee. Be sure to keep your elbows tight to your torso to maintain maximum control over the attacker’s weapon arm and, when turning, keep the blade away from you. Do not bring the blade across your throat or face while rotating his arm.
Figures 1.02i–l. To remove the weapon from his grip, use the palm heel of your “knuckles to knuckles” hand to punch his wrist toward him using your hips and upper body in concert. For added power, you may momentarily release your grip to cock your arm slightly to palm heel through his wrist. As you break the wrist’s posture, dig your fingers into his palm, wrapping around the weapon’s grip. Use your fingers to strip the weapon and pry it from his grip.

Cavalier #3 is used when you have wrapped up the opponent’s weapon arm from the inside and find it easier to keep the arm wrapped and trapped to apply a wristlock for weapon removal. Similar to Cavalier #2, the Cavalier #3 wristlock involves moving from inside control of the edged weapon arm by trapping the assailant’s arm across your chest.
Figures 1.03a–d. After you have stopped the attack and sufficiently debilitated the assailant with combatives to establish firm control over his weapon arm, reach your hand across your chest to grab the back of the assailant’s triceps just above the elbow. Keep the weapon arm firmly in control across your chest. Rotate the assailant’s arm, forcing the back of his weapon hand until it is parallel to the ground. Secure the weapon hand “knuckles to knuckles” and peel the hand down placing great pressure on his wrist. Be sure to keep additional pressure against his triceps with your elbow as you strip the edged weapon away. Note: To use Cavalier #3, the attacker must have an underhand grip—not an icepick type or overhand stab.

This highly practical and effective control hold allows an assailant to be taken down face-first, swiftly with strong deadside positional control, and driven into the ground with dominant control over the weapon.
Control Hold A may also be applied with or without preceding retzev combatives. Again, usually in the case of a weapon, the defender has delivered strong preceding combatives and has control of the weapon arm before applying the specific hold. The hold places compliance or takedown pressure on the opponent’s wrist and shoulder while controlling the weapon.
Figures 1.04a–d. (Note: These photos depict a close slash that requires a modified block.) After administering combatives, if you are facing your opponent or the side of your opponent, grab his right wrist with your right hand. Another option is to grip the flat of the back of his hand by turning your wrist up to create pressure on his wrist. Raise your wrist up placing upward pressure so that his arm comes up with a ninety-degree bend with fingers toward the ground. Reach over the top of his targeted shoulder clamping down hard on the shoulder while snaking your right arm over the top of his targeted right arm across his shoulder to clasp your other arm.
