Combat Systems chronicles the creation, evolution and
core concepts of one of the fastest growing martial arts
in the world. It overcomes the shortcomings inherent in martial
art instruction manuals by focusing not on technique,
but on the strategy and philosophy of movement behind the
technique. Written by a first generation student under the
authority and supervision of the system's Founder and
Grand Master, this work is an excellent introduction
to the system. FCS is one of the most practical combat
oriented martial systems in existence, bridging the gap between
the ancient fighting arts and the modern world.

This book is an excellent resource for any martial
artist, be they a beginner or veteran . Using the many detailed
illustrations provided in this book, you will be able to draw
not only from the vast experience of the author, Mark Edward
Cody, but also Ray Dionaldo, the Founder and Grand Master
of Filipino Combat Systems (FCS). Through this book you will
become acquainted with the amazing techniques of some of the
most well known and highly sought after knife fighting instructors
in the world. I really like that not only does the book cover
the core concepts of FCS, basic martial principals, and the
basics of self defense, but it also goes into more detail
on the origin and fighting techniques of the Kerambit and
the Sarong. A very comprehensive book, a must read for anyone
interested in knife fighting or martial arts.
