Why didn't I or the Green Berets think of that when implementing the SOCP Combatives as SOP?I will give you a simple solution called a "sidearm".
Why did they commission the design of a knife especially?
If you're jumped by someone intent on killing you from the side you keep your sidearm at, good luck getting to it.
If you have ever wrestled or been in a scuffle, you'll get what I'm saying.
Someone here asked about battle buddies, your battle buddy won't shoot at a tango entangled with you.. the risks are far too many.
They will have to come and pull or takedown the tango physically. Till that time if you haven't fought back yourself and the other guy had a blade possibly, at the very least, you've got holes in you.
Inside of arm range, a knife is the only lethal option.
Special Forces around the world are the pinnacle of efficiency. If they don't see value in something, they wouldn't spend time, effort and money training in it and perfecting it.
Another country with extremely effective and reputed SF. Watch from 4:10.
