I strike with my rear arm as I block with my lead arm.
The Forehand Knifehand Swing is a big powerful strike that is easy to see coming. So it must be preceded by a quick strike) or block beforehand or it will be defended against.

Simultaneous Block with Snapping Hammerfist Counter
http://youtu.be/HzVQ2P6D94U
I strike with my rear arm as I block with my lead arm.
The main difference between today’s drill and yesterday’s is that I am countering with a snapping hammerfist.
This is a deceptive, dangerous maneuver that should be had to see coming, let alone defend against.

Simultaneous Block with Counter Punch
http://youtu.be/-imFRdiWz68
I strike with my rear arm as I block with my lead arm.
The trick is to able to execute this without thought. To know when to do it and then just do it when the time and distance are right.
If necessary, I may even set this combination up with a false draw but it must be a reflex movement or it will be too slow.

Block, Check, Counter
http://youtu.be/gVrTkhsrcyQ
Against a heavy driving thrust, I execute my block, then I check his still extended arm as I counter attack.
Simple to say: not so easy against a resisting opponent.

Lead Block then Lead Counter
http://youtu.be/Za2qFMdTSRI
The rhythm of this drill is different than yesterdays.
I flow my counter immediately off of my block.
My blocking arm in very close to the attacker: so my counter should be able to land before he can strike again.

Lead Block and then Rear Counter
http://youtu.be/XlguchZJQ6c
The video show how to do this and on the face of it, it looks simple.
Looks can be deceiving as there is a pause between the block and the counter.

The 2nd Grip on the Cane and Three Miscellaneous Strikes at Punching Distance
http://youtu.be/ghftJBtwPII
*WARNING* These strikes look like nothing but they can inflict serious damage. Also, the strikes themselves are quite challenging and must be learned from an expert and practiced correctly under supervision. What is shown here is nothing more than an entertaining video where these strikes are shown briefly. This does NOT constitute instruction in any way.
These three strikes require a strong grip to begin with or the practitioner risks the very real danger of hurting themselves.
The first uses the hook point of the Sheppard’s hook in a horizontal hook fashion (as shown on the video).
The second has the Cane upright with the end in the air. I use the hook as a weapon. This is the most challenging of the strikes. The risk to hand and wrist is very real.
The third strike is a thrust with the end and because it is done one handed at close range; it tends to feel like there is nothing to this. This is a powerful strike and should not be taken lightly!
