It uses a mild painless shock to provide feedback when your technique needs correction. Save time, energy, and money by training more efficiently.<\/p>\n<p>ADVANTAGE #2 \u2013 Stress Exposure Training<\/p>\n<p>A real knife attack creates a feeling of panic causing your body to respond with the \u201cfight or flight\u201d syndrome. That same acute stress can now be replicated during training by setting the SK-1 shock level to EXTREME. At this level the knife sparks and growls, ready to bite with each attack.<\/p>\n<p>ADVANTAGE #3 \u2013 Cut Location Indicator<\/p>\n<p>The SK-1 delivers a powerful shock upon contact allowing the trainee to recognize both WHERE and WHEN they were exposed during the attack. The shock will even arc through clothing! Unlike marking knives there is no messy marking compound to clean up after training.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It runs on a 9v battery &#8212; but doubtless one could find a way to bump up the power and end up with some keen sci-fi electro-blade kinda thing.
