Description

W.E. Fairbairn's Complete Compendium of Lethal, Unarmed, Hand-to-Hand Combat Methods and Fighting is a fully illustrated manual of unarmed combat methods taught to British and US Special Forces in the Second World War. Written by Major W.E. Fairbairn, co-inventor of the Sykes-Fairbairn knife, this book provides a comprehensive guide to lethal unarmed combat techniques, including hand, fist, knee, and boot strikes, as well as wrist, bear, and strangle holds. The methods described in this book are designed to be used in life-or-death situations, where correctly applied they can be deadly. The book covers topics such as disarming a pistol-wielding attacker, securing a prisoner, and throwing an enemy. It is essential to note that these techniques should only be employed when life is in danger from an attacker. Originally published during the Second World War, this manual has been updated and is now available for anyone interested in self-defence and close-quarters combat. The book's focus on training to fight with no notice, at very close ranges, in poor lighting and in unexpected environments makes it a valuable resource for those seeking to improve their self-defence skills.
