This file will teach you how you can kill another person with your own two hands. The information 
presented here will be very helpful to the beginner and will also serve as a refresher for those of 
you already familiar with the subject. 
I will start off by talking about basic things such as stance, what you should and shouldn’t do when 
fighting and other information that the beginner will need to know. Then, I will give you a list of 
over 20 vulnerable points that one should always try attacking in a fight along with the way these 
points should be attacked. Finally, I will give you some more fighting tips and information on how 
you can continue learning about hand-to-hand combat. 
 

                                      ^*^ 

 
Now, let me discuss some of the basics you will need to know when you are in any combat 
situation. 

background image

Stance 

The best stance when confronting an enemy is to put your feet at shoulders length apart and your 
arms should be facing forward, parallel to each other and bent at the elbows. Keep your knees 
slightly bent and stand on the balls of your feet. 
Remember, you always want to maintain this stance when you are not striking at the enemy. 

Balance 

It is always important that you keep your balance. If you use the stance I have described above, you 
will never have to worry about it. If by chance you do lose your balance even for a second you can 
kiss your ass goodbye as the enemy will probably kill you. 

Aggressiveness 

Always be aggressive and always attack. Don’t just stand back and defend yourself against the 
enemy’s strikes as he will end up killing you eventually.  If you are not aggressive, the enemy will 
think you are scared and he will have an advantage over you. 
A great thing to do is yell at the enemy. This will scare the shit out of him if you start yelling at him 
and plus it also allows you to get more oxygen in your lungs so you will have more strength. 

Natural Weapons 

Your natural weapons are as follows: knife edge of either hand, the heel of your hands, your fingers 
folded at the second knuckle, your boot, your elbow, your knees, your teeth, your fore finger and 
second finger forming a „V“ shape, and your fist. These body parts alone are some of the most 
powerful weapons you can use. 
 

                                      ^*^ 

 
Since you now know the basics of fighting, let me list for you the best places where you should 
strike your enemy. 

Temple 

A sharp blow to the temple ensures instant death since there is a large artery and nerve located 
close to the skin surface. If you give a medium blow to the temple it will cause severe pain and 
concussion but a hard blow will kill the enemy instantly. The best way to strike the temple is with 
the knife edge of your hand or if he is on the ground you can kick him with the toe of your boot. 

Eyes 

The eyes are a great place to strike if you can since a good strike in the eyes will cause temporary 
or permanent blindness. To blind the enemy, make a „V“ shape with your fore finger and second 
finger and stick them into his eyes while keeping your fingers stiff. Also, you can gouge the eyes 
with your thumb. 

Nose 

The nose is another excellent place to attack. Hit the bridge with the knife edge of your hand and 
you will cause breakage, severe pain, temporary blindness and even death. Or you can use the palm 
of your hand to strike upwards and push the nose up into his brain. If done hard enough the nose 
bone will puncture his brain and he will die. 

background image

Upper Lip 

The upper lip contains a lot of nerves close to the skin surface so if you strike it with the knife edge 
of your hand it will cause great pain and if delivered hard enough he will become unconscious. 

Mouth 

If the enemy is on the ground, use the heel of your boot and strike him on the mouth. Since there 
are a lot of veins and arteries in the teeth there will be a lot of blood which will frighten the enemy 
and he will lose concentration on defending other parts of his body. 

Chin 

The chin should only be struck with the palm of your hand as you can break your fingers on the 
enemy’s chin. Use the palm of your hand and strike the enemy with a very strong upward blow. 
This will cause extreme discomfort. 

Adam’s Apple 

Usually the enemy will defend this part of his body well but if you do get the chance give it a sharp 
hit with the knife edge of your hand. If you hit it hard enough you will bust his windpipe and he 
will die. You can also squeeze the Adam’s Apple between your fingers. 

Esophagus 

If you have a chance to get a hold of his neck, press your thumbs into his esophagus (located below 
the Adam’s Apple). Pushing hard will be very painful and it will block the oxygen flow to his lungs 
and he will die quickly. 

Neck 

If you give a very strong blow to the base of the neck with the knife edge of your hand you will 
usually break it. However, if it is not hard enough, the enemy might just be knocked unconscious so 
be sure to hit him in the temple or twist his neck around to be sure he is dead. The neck is the best 
place to hit someone if you want to be quiet as it is quick and the enemy goes down without a word. 

Collar Bone 

The collar bone is an extremely sensitive part of the body. A sharp blow to it with the knife edge of 
your hand or your elbow gives the enemy excruciating pain. Also, digging your finger into the 
collar bone can bring your enemy to his knees. 

Shoulder 

The shoulder is easy dislocated and it takes little strength to do. However, it should be done 
quickly. Grab the enemy’s arm and pull it behind his back and then jerk it upwards quickly. You 
should here a popping sound which means you have dislocated the enemy’s shoulder. There are 
other methods of doing this but this is the easiest. 

Armpit 

Although it is hard to get at, the armpit has a large network of nerves. If the enemy is on the 
ground, hold up his arm and then kick him in his pit. This will cause severe pain. However, it is not 
a very common place that will be struck in a fight but is good to keep in mind anyways. 

background image

Rib Cage 

A strike to the rib cage with your fingers folded at the second knuckle is rather painful and if done 
hard enough causes severe pain and breakage. Only use your fingers folded at the second knuckle 
since that hurts the most. 

Solar Plexus 

The solar plexus is located on the chest at the little „V“ shaped point where the rib cage ends. There 
are a large amount of nerves so a blow with the knuckle of your second finger can cause severe 
pain and even unconsciousness. 

Floating Ribs 

The floating ribs are the lower ribs located at the front and sides of the enemy’s body. Use the knife 
edge of your hand or the heel or toe of your boot.  The blow will cause pain and will stun the 
enemy. 

Spine 

A blow to the spine with the heel of your boot can paralyze or kill your enemy.  The lower spine 
between the enemy’s kidneys is the best place to hit as that is the least protected part of the spine. 
You will only be able to attack the spine when your enemy is on the ground or if his back is turned 
to you. 

Kidneys 

The kidneys have two large nerves that are close to the skin surface. If you strike the kidneys hard 
it will cause death. You can use a fist or the knife edge of your hand to hit the kidneys. Or a kick 
with the heel of your boot will work too. 

Groin 

The groin is a good place to strike if you get the chance. Generally, the enemy will protect this area 
the most but if you have a chance, strike it with your knee in an upward motion or with your fist. 
I’m sure you can imagine the pain the enemy will get from it. 

Tailbone 

The tailbone which is located above the anus is a very sensitive part of the body as a lot of spinal 
nerves are located there. Use the toe of your boot to strike the tailbone. The pain from that is 
unbelievably severe. 

Elbow 

The elbow is easy to break or dislocate. Pull the enemy’s arm behind him and with the palm of your 
hand push his elbow inwards until it either cracks or pops. When the enemy has a useless arm, you 
have a great advantage over him. 

Fingers 

The fingers should be broken because the enemy becomes almost helpless with broken fingers. 
Grab the enemy’s arm with one hand and with the other hand push the fingers upwards until they 
snap. It is only necessary to break the first two fingers. It is also helpful in breaking a grip. 

background image

Knee 

You can destroy the knee by kicking it with the side of your boot in an upward motion. This will 
rip the ligaments and the cartilage. This will cause unbelievable pain and make it impossible for the 
enemy to move around. Once a knee has been ruined, you will have a great advantage over the 
enemy. 

Ankle 

If the enemy is on the ground, get a hold of his ankle and twist it until it snaps. This will make it 
almost impossible for him to walk and he will then be easy to kill. 
 

                                      ^*^ 

 
Let me talk about some more important things you should remember when you are fighting 
somebody. 

Tactics 

Always try to throw your enemy off balance. You can do this by charging the enemy and 
pretending to strike him. This will make him flinch and lose his balance. 
Always look for a weak spot and attack it. Whenever he leaves a vulnerable part of his body 
unprotected attack it with all your strength. By doing this, he will then try to protect the part of his 
body that you just struck thus leaving even more unprotected parts open. 
Use any available object that you can. By this I mean throw sand in his eyes, block his strikes by 
hitting him with a large branch, or any other kind of available material that can be used as a weapon 
against him. 

Foul Play 

In a life or death situation there is no such thing as foul play and there are no rules either. Although 
hitting someone in the groin is considered a cheap shot in high school, it is a very effective way of 
destroying your enemy. Just hit him where you can and kick him when he’s down. That way, he 
will never get back up again. 
 

                                      ^*^ 

 
I have now explained to you the basics of fighting and the best places to attack your enemy on his 
body. Just because you have read this file doesn’t mean you will be able to go out and kick 
somebody’s ass in. These methods take a lot of practice in order to do them properly. 
If you enjoyed this file and would like to practice these methods get a partner who is also interested 
in this and work on each type of strike and kick. When you first start out, go slowly and remember 
that these methods are deadly and do not require much force to be effective so take it easy on your 
partner. 
Some of you may decide that practicing is not enough and you would like to 
learn more than what I have told you in the above. Well, there are several good 
books with illustrations on this subject which go into much more detail than I 
ever could in this file. The book I used mainly to write this file was „The 
Marine Corps Field Manual on Physical Security“. You can get this book through a good book 
store or if you happen to know a marine, he can get you a copy very easily. 

background image

There are also camps where you can go for 1-2 weeks to learn all sorts of things like this such as 
firing weapons, detailed hand-to-hand combat, doing raids on enemies and all sorts of other stuff 
like that. The instructors that teach these programs are well trained and have had years of 
experience with this. However, usually you have to be 18 years or older to get into these programs 
and you have to be very serious about it as well. This is not one of those programs where you can 
say „Time-out, I need to rest.“ They don’t stop just to suit you. To get more information about 
these programs, you can usually find out about them in magazines like „Soldier of Fortune“ and 
other magazines with similar theme. 
 

                                      ^*^ 

 
Well, that’s it for now. Perhaps in the future I can discuss the fun stuff like fighting people with 
knives and all the other lethal weapons you can use in a fight. If you liked this file, let me know and 
I will continue on with this subject.

Wolverine, December 30, 2002 

 

Not the greatest 
There has been much hype for Krav Maga and its self defense benefits. I 
purchased this book with high hopes that it could provide some insight into the 
frightening realism of defense from an armed assailant. What I got, however, 
was several techniques which give you less than a fifty fifty chance...

 WRITTEN BY A HEAVYWEIGHT TONY GAMPU, May 20, 2002 

Reviewer: A reader from harrison, ny 

USA 

Back in 1995, Sockut's book, SECRETS OF STREET SURVIVAL-ISRAELI STYLE, first hit the 
streets. Sockut wrote of the danger of a world-wide Islamic Terror Network (Al Qaeda) which would 
hit US economic targets (world trade center). Sockut took a lot of flak about this, being labelled 
"paranoid" among some other derogatory terms. Seems, like all visionaries, Sockut suffered criticisms 
from those who should have known better. Well, Sept. 11, 2001 has changed all that, Sockut's 
warnings and predictions have unfortunately come to pass, in spades. Sockut also warned of growing 
world crime. Well, what's happening in many countries around the world is bearing that out too. 9/11 
has educated us all to these dangers which are only just beginning to engulf us. If anything, Sockut was 
too conservative in his early predictions. My hat is off to Sockut for being brave enought to speak his 
mind when we were all asleep and he was a lone voice in the wilderness. THIS IS A GREAT BOOK

 ONE OF THE BEST, May 1, 2002 

Reviewer: 

PAT CASCIO (see more about me)

 from 

CALIFORNIA 

I have been writing on the subject of street survival for more than 10 years. My articles appear in a 
variety of firearm, knife and survival magazines. I hold black belt in a number of martial arts and, I 
have also been involved in several gunfights. So, I feel qualified to review Eugene Sockut's book, 
SECRETS OF STREET SURVIVAL-ISRAELI STYLE. I have read and reread this book more than a 
dozen times. I always learn something new with each turn of the page of this book.
I can't think of anyone more qualified to write on the subject of "Street Survival" than Sockut. who 
lives in a street war zone every single day of his life. As former Chief Marksmanship and Sniper

Officer for the IDF, Sockut's credentials are well-recognized.

Sockut walks the walk and, talks the talk. In the hotly contested area of the Middle East, Sockut can be 
found wearing a brace of Colt Giovernment Model 1911's on a daily basis. As a much sought-after 
security expert, Sockut can be found lecturing on the subject of street survival and settlement defense 
on a regular basis.

SECRETS OF STREET SURVIVAL-ISRAELI STYLE, gives the reader solutions to a variety of 
deadly encounters. These types of encounters can be found just about any place in the world, not just in 
Israel. Sockut's book is must reading for anyone serious about street survival.

 Needs update, August 29, 2003 

Reviewer: 

John G. Cakars (see more about me)

 from ALBANY, CA 

USA 

This is a pretty interesting book. What may work in Israel might not work in the US or California. A 
good portion of the book is devoted to the use of two handguns. The author describes various rigs and 
guns. He covers what to wear and like. Well, he might be able to go around in Israel with a two gun 
brace, but here in California my local Chief of Police is not going to give me a concealed carry permit. 
So, a good portion of the book is sort of useless. If I don't have a CCW, then I can't be driving around 
with loaded handguns in the car.

As with all topics like this, the reader is advised to beware. He does have an excellent point. That is 
that all of us individually are responsible for our own safety. The reader is admonished that the police 
will not or may not be able to protect.

 Sensible Advice with a Definite Place in Today's World, December 26, 

2002 

Reviewer: 

C.J. Hardman (see more about me)

 from San Diego, CA 

USA 

Do You Live In Dangerous Times? This is not a picture-by-picture how-to book, but a thick volume 
(394 pages) of sound advice for anyone who is intent on surviving attack in any form. Author Sockut's 
book is thin on photos, and BIG on common sense. Sockut presents case studies and examples, and 
then advice gleaned from the events in a series of "Street Survival Lessons". Rather than simply 
advising us that we can never be to careful, we learn this scenario after scenario.

This volume emphasizes situations where an armed or unarmed individual meets up with an armed 
antagonizer, and breaks attackers down into categories by their weapon of preference, offering advice 
specific to each. Covered are bladed weapons (knife & sword), batons and clubs, and guns (short & 
long). You will learn what to watch for concerning suspects, how to guard against the unlikely, and 
how to stay focused. You will learn the best way to conceal weapons on your person, and how to be

certain your weapons will be in working order when you need them.

Recommended especially for anyone who works in law enforcement, corrections, in a capacity for the 
military, or other public service employees. A good companion to this is Rex Applegate's "Kill Or Get 
Killed".

 Timely, Accurate, and Realistic, November 19, 2002 

Reviewer: b92g@aol.com from Charlotte, NC 

USA 

I just finished this book and it has, without question, become an important book to read if you are in 
any way concerend with personal security. It is written for the citizen and is not yet another book 
geared to the police/military community. 

Detailing Sockut's Israeli experience, his advice is very timely for Americans. While terror levels in 
the US do not reach Israeli proportions, his advice transitions easily to US urban street crime senarios, 
as well as preparting the reader, mentally, for what may become more common. And, if/when terror 
increases in the US, as it seems it will, this book is a broad based, yet quick, read of mental and 
physical security preparedness for the armed citizen.

 sockut admires jim bowie, May 8, 2002 

Reviewer: A reader from harrison, ny 

USA 

i am a serious student of knife fighting who has read them all. I'm sorry to say, most are bull-throwers 
woh advocate "secret" techniques and "magic" knives (and who never used one in anger against a 
serious opponent) that's why i liked sockut's recommendations. he believes in knife fighting basics, 
without "smoke and mirrors." he also admires and advocates jim bowie's technique. bowie was a real 
knife fighter and not a walter mitty. but sockut, goes one step further. while advocating th bowie knife 
and technique, he knows most will not carry a full size one because blade length and weight. so he also 
recommends a good double edge fighting knife which can do everything the bowie can but chop. that's 
practical. that's real. my hat's off to sockut. he makes survival sense.
