(ignore redundant title wording) The most common weapon to be seen in pop culture and carried/concealed by the everyday passerby or military personnel, knives have existed for 2.5 million years well before even the Stone Age. Originally used as cutting tools, they were eventually specialized for combat which lead to the creation of such contemporary variations like the American Bowie Knife, Filipino Balisong (or Butterfly Knife) and Karambit, the Nepalese Kukri/Gurkha, the Japanese Kunai, and countless others. Knife fights have made numerous appearances in films and television. Though not as theatrical as sword fights, they have still made for some highly entertaining action on a much smaller scale. So here’s a compilation of some knife fight scenes.

watch rocky handsome final fight scene
Of all these, the few deserving some credit for getting close to "real" are: 1) The Hunted, 2) those of Donnie Yen's movie and 3) the "improvised" fights of Bourne trilogy. The remaining are basically the childish asian movie thing.
아저씨
2:35 best, all the rest is bullshit
Nice video, what about a spear fight or axe or with a shield 😉
Learn krabi krabong if you want to learn good knife fight techniques, or even Silambam. Krav maga and filipino martial arts aren't enough.
Great refrences for an animation i am working on. Thank You
2 things,
1. Only Asian makes good knife fight scenes.
2. Best actions scenes, are one that shot in a single sequences and not with dozens of edit cuts.
Where hammer girl ?? 🙂
Baton fights
There is one knife fight in the protector
Check out Raymond Chow's "Broken Oath" (1977) Angela Mao Ying wields double daggers in that movie..
"Thats not a knife, This is a knife"
"Thats not a knife thats a spoon"
the most of then were oustanding
This is really great – thanks! I liked the clip from 'The Man From Nowhere' and watched the film straight after this vid – amazing. Many of these film don't receive the marketing they deserve when they are released.
Caramba, Raul Cortez fight 4:56
Where's Spy?
3:443 I was waiting for that one xD
fucking awesome… something Hollywood can never achieve
Gotta love Korean action films.
How could you not have in closed IP man?
Excellent selection!!!I like that you included the scene between Tommy Lee Jones and Segal
in "Under Siege" as that was probably Segals best moment on film!!!
Probabaly not allowed on youtube, but the sauna scene from eastern promises is a good one for realism
Rekt at 20
JAH LIVE
"Thats not a knoife… Thats a knoife" 😀
That's not a knife… this is a KNIFE.

Great choices
At 8:02 he said Hao (which mean good like agreeing or yes) but how the hell did that turn to "fuck".
das not a knoife…this is a knoife! australians in a nutshell
This should be called "Worst knife fights".
aaaam 9:35 movie is Danny the Dog ??
Hey maybe you can check out my tricks and let me know what you think
I loved The Winter Soldier, but that knife fight was chopped into a complete mess.
the purge: election year, last fight?
