Gah! Knife fighting is one of the things I really hate. Probably because I hate blood loss, hospital visits, stitches, and permament injury.
That said, knives are just too useful to not have. I usually carry an old Spyderco Military or a CRKT M16 folder, and a Leatherman Wave. And a Leatherman Micra on my keychain. Sometimes I carry an old Lapland Pukko or a pre-production Busse Killer-B, when dress allows a fixed blade. I'm still looking for a good solid fixed blade that I can carry every day.
My outdoors knife is a Mad Dog ATAK, backed up with a small folder. I really like Mad Dog knives, and plan to buy more in the future (i.e. when I have some more cash handy.)
I've had some Taijitsu and some stick-and-knife training, but I'm not well-trained by any means. In a fight, it's going to be something along the lines of Cut! Cut! Run Away!
