Train Beyond the Pages

E.D.G.E:® Knife Defense Program

You Own the Book. Now Own the Skills.

Reading is just the beginning. True mastery comes when you step into action, push past fear and test what you have learned under real-world conditions.

E.D.G.E:® Knife Defense Program

In Person Training: Step Into The Fire

Hands On Coaching. Real-World Pressure. Zero Fluff.

You have read the principles. You have seen the drills.

Now it is time to experience them live. In-person training at our flagship HQ.

We offer multiple Training Tracks that takes everything from the book and turns it into muscle memory, instinct and confidence that will hold up when seconds count.

Here is what you will get:

  • Realistic drills under true pressure: learn to react fast, move decisively and think clearly while under stress.
  • Scenario-based training: ambush simulations, multi-assailant dynamics and environment-specific challenges.
  • Access to full E.D.G.E:® Curriculum: drills, techniques and strategies designed for real life, not Instagram.
  • Live coaching and community: immediate feedback, correction and camaraderie with others committed to readiness.

Our E.D.G.E:® Digital Dojo brings the same pressure-tested training straight to your screen. Designed for flexibility, the online portal lets you train on your schedule, anywhere, anytime, while still holding you accountable to real-world standards.

Here is what you get when you join:

Why Training Matters

Owning the book gave you knowledge.
Training gives you capability.

  • Knowledge alone won’t protect you.
  • A knife in your pocket is useless if your hands freeze under pressure.
  • True readiness comes from stress-tested drills, repeated practice, and real-world scenarios.

Whether in-person or online, your training ensures that:

  • You act before panic takes over
  • You move decisively under threat
  • You can access your tools and deploy them effectively
  • You have the mindset and confidence to protect yourself and your loved ones

This is the difference between reading about survival and living it.

Stop Hoping. Start Training.

You already own the book. Now, it’s time to own the skills. Step into the FORTRESS for in-person intensity, or log in to the Digital Dojo for flexible, anytime access.
