Kiss of death
Dear Kenpo brothers and sisters:
Does Kenpo as it is currently taught include the "kiss of death" technique?
The KOD, for those folks that may have not heard of it, is a palm strike that rotates as it strikes the jaw of your opponent. It is normally delivered with the leading hand and is followed up with an elbow strike with the same arm. A KOD could be used in the place of a hook punch and would use the same body positioning.
What are your thoughts on this technique? It is really a death strike or is this more hype than reality?
I've never used the KOD in combat but I'm sure it would be an effective strike to the jaw. Could it really cause a fatal injury? Maybe doc could help us out here.

Re: Kiss of death
Dear Kenpo brothers and sisters:
I've learned since my post that this move I thought was called the KOD is similiar to a palm strike technique out of white tiger.
Thanks for your help!
Re: Kiss of death
I found that technique... it's also refered to as a old Colt revolver.... 5 points.. one for each chamber and the heart will look like it blew up :P

Re: Kiss of death
Long time no see Mr. Bunny. Glad to "see" ya.
Nelson, I've executed this maneuver but never knew it had a "name." I just did it becuase it seemed to flow. I work it on "Bob" quite a bit and use return motion to execute an obscure elbow followed by a back knuckle strike or sometimes a claw. Just depends. One of the things I love about Kenpo is the way maneuvers easily fit togehter allowing a continuous flow of motion.
While I have heard of the Five Finger Exploding Heart Technique, I've never heard of the Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique. Maybe I'm jsut thinking of a different Wu-Tang movie. LOL.

Dear Crippler:
Thanks once again for your feedback. I hope to be making the aquaintance of "Bob" or one of his cousins soon. I can't seem to find any waling talking practice dummies around here that will let me do a number on them.

Re: Kiss of death
It's all over the system. A palm-heel to the jaw can easily rotate to an eye gouge, too-just like in finger set.

Re: Kiss of death
We, too practice a Kiss of Death technique, however it involves ingesting huge amounts of raw garlic, fritos, onions, and fish. (Actually I guess it'd be more appropriately termed...'Kiss of Nausea '
