Recently I’ve been attacked by people with knives a few times. Every time, I basically flounder and either run and throw objects or try to attack the hand which is horrifyingly risky. I’ve pretty much only gotten this far due to luck, so I’m wondering what kind of techniques are there that do the job consistently that require a small amount of risk. It’s gotten to the point where I’ve begun forging a metal arm to protect my forearms so I can just get in there and take care of it as quick as possible. Seriously, any advice helps. Thanks

Title. Also, how do i go about adding the little blades on the ulna-end of the gauntlet while pouring? Should I just weld them on? I plan on using steel, but I want a second opinion from my peers that are more educated on the topic. They don't need to be able to stop bullets--I just want to be able to catch the swords/knives/spears of my adversaries and disarm them. Should my gauntlet cover just my forearm, or should I cover my fist and create some sort of handle to have the force come from the heel of my hand for greater HURT?
