Hi, I've been doing martial arts for many years now, but I've never tried weapons. I'd like to complement my Wing Chun training with some knife work (no, not kitchen he he).
Any1 know a good style that teaches knife and a place in New York where I can take classes?
Thx.

That's not knife fighting, that's the Bot Jarn Dao, or Eight Slash Swords, which are for use in general armed combat and not easily concealed or legally carried around, as far as I know. Knife fighting generally means using a small hand held knife, even pocket type knife that can be easily concealed and carried on one's person.
As yoda pointed out the Filipino and Filipino influenced schools specialize in these skills.

Just noticed your sig ----- "The blade is only silent until it cuts through your flesh"
Is it just me or does anyone else hear alarm bells ringing.

No worries, YODA, I'm not planning to assault any1 with a damn knife. I wanna study the art of weilding a knife to better understand the position a possible attacker might take.
Thx for concern, though
