I paid how much??
Very informative and accurate information, but I was hoping for more advanced opening and closing techniques rather than straight up how to stab a dude. (yes,the title was quite literal..) Of the opening and closing techniques it did show, to put it lightly, they sucked. It was just basic moves, and confusing/misleading because they were drawn on paper. Assuming because they must have been originals drawn by the authors grandfather. Speaking of grandpa, It seemed far too personal As well with this guy talking about his grandfather throughout the book and the martial arts team photos at the end, if I knew they even had special teams for this I probably wouldn't have been a noob and bought/read this book to begin with..
My bottom line is: it was a let down, interesting tactics, but $13.99? That's about $10 too steep for what this is honestly..and I gave that extra star just for the accuracy of the information.
