“As a Defensive Tactics Instructor and one who works with law enforcement and military personnel, I am usually quite critical of `self-defense fads.' However, I don't feel this product falls into that category. I think it would make for a very viable self-defense adjunct in someone's arsenal. It is a very innocuous utilitarian object that most people would not look twice at. That is, until they felt it's capabilities first hand.” —Mike McGuire, Edmonton, Alberta

"Self-Defense: Tools of Attack shows practice drills of an experienced street fighter. In many confrontations his techniques have never failed him. He shows what is real and how to practice with common street weapons. Observe him to learn the correct techniques and the training drills with a club, hatchet, blackjack, knife, and razor.
"The demonstrator spent most of his youth in East Europe's toughest correctional institutions—including a special prison where inmates were rehabilitated by systematic beatings and starvation. Afterwards he collected debts, settled scores, and provided personal protection in some of the worst neighborhoods of Eastern Europe. Through all the bloody fights he stayed unbeaten, in “one piece,” thanks to his rational technique and the intensity of his simple drills.This video shows the simple moves and simple drills that kept him winning every time.
“This an effective, deadly system of combat that should make the rest of fighting arts nervous.
“A shining example of creativity, ingenuity, skill, precision targeting and power. Rarely have I seen such efficient use of body mechanics or such mastery with common weapons. G. S. is truly a master. This hard hitting, street style of self-defense is real eye-opener to even those who have trained for many years.”
—Terrance Rasmuson, 6th Dan JuJitsu, 4th Dan Tenshi Goju Karate, Edmonton, Alberta
