Step 1
Begin in the ready stance with your guard up.
-
Step 2
Reach out with the forward hand, palm flat and facing inward. Tightly hold together your fingers and thumb. Strike your opponent's eyes or throat or solar plexus with your fingers.
-
Step 3
Chamber your rear hand with your palm up and fingers together instead of in a fist. Strike, turning your palm inward and aiming for the side of your opponent's neck or ribs. Make contact with the heel of your palm, not your fingers. Continue past the target to pull at and possibly tear the skin.

Step 1
Begin in a ready stance with your guard up. Hold your forward hand in front of your face, palm facing in and fingers held tightly together. Your forearm should be perpendicular to the floor, and your fingers, arm and elbow should be in line.
-
Step 2
Turning your palm down and tucking your thumb under as you approach, strike your opponent with the outside of the knuckle on your first finger. A glancing blow to your opponent's temple is a good target.
-
Step 3
Make a circular motion with your arm so your knife hand turns palm down. Strike your opponent with the outside of your wrist, where the wrist bone meets the heel of your palm on the side of your little finger. Good targets are the neck, nose and the space between the nose and the upper lip.
