I have been fired on twice (I live in FL it comes with the territory of being a Florida Man) TLDR; in a 10ftx10ft room I want a knife. Yes a gun is not a reactionary weapon you have to pull the trigger, it takes time to process that the victim has now moved to being the attacker and usually if you are within arms reach it is too late for the original attacker to react and pull off the shot before he has lost at least total control of the gun. This is why cops maintain distance when they have someone at gunpoint. Conversely a knife is a reactionary weapon if you jump at me and I flinch you get cut. Not a whole lot of ways to disarm a knife unless the attacker is actively attacking with it, thus exposing his arm. This is why 9 times out of 10 in a fight between a person with a gun and a person with a knife, at striking distance, the person with the gun will fair far worse than the person with the knife. The person with the gun has to reorient and shoot again, the person with the knife just has to flail. Knife also leave more damaging wounds when used as a penetrating weapon and have more chance of hitting vitals or an artery. Here is a great training video of how effective a knife is against someone armed with a gun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbnSTW7Ar44 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbnSTW7Ar44
