Cold steel in war: Why do KNIVES still decide fates at the front? | Weapons with @StarskyUA
In this episode, Starsky analyzes why Ukrainian servicemen still carry knives — not as a souvenir, but as a real weapon and tool. In a positional war in Bakhmut, Avdiivka, or the gray zone, hand-to-hand combat often occurs, where a knife is a matter of life and death. Starsky shares his personal stories, talks about knife fighting, training from Fratria Fortis, Ukrainian brands Blade Brothers and Skif, and most importantly, asks whether it is time to introduce systematic knife fighting training in the army.
