I don't know about you guys but if I saw someone pointing a gun at me, it would be a duck and cover or zigzag running moment... if I saw someone coming at me with a knife, I'd find something fast that I could use to smash his face in.
True story... twice in my life I've had someone point a gun at me with bad intent.

Raydan Yes if you can grab something, if being attacked by someone with a knife, but dude be very careful. 20 odd years ago was shown a video for training about knife attacks on cops. Attacker needed to be at least 12 feet away (if he is running at the cop) just for the cop to pull out his weapon and fire. Still the cop got stabbed. People with knives are very deadly be prepared to take wounds if you are in a fight. IF you are be determined to live and thus willing to kill your attacker. Never give up never quit. If seriously wounded and attack is over do all you can to stay alive.
Kind of my mentality. Someone comes after me the fight or flight instinct seriously kicks in. IF it's fight I fight not to win but to live. So far been lucky and not needed to kill to live but was close a couple of times.
