I'm not responsible for anything stupid or violent anyone here does.  you clicked on this thread of your own free will.  If you don't like it click off.  All the info I have posted is easily accessed elsewhere and through books.

Ive gotten a few IM's on a previous post about the topic of silent killing.  So here you go.

Rule of thumb on throat slitting DON'T!!!  It is better to go in from the side blade facing away.  The (I'm not a medical professional, bare with me) Sternochlomastoid muscle on the side of the neck has
about the consistency of burnt steak, it is a bitch to cut.  These muscle run parralell and along the trachea and are a natural hindrance if you are try side to side blade facing you.  As SinBin pointed out what usually happens is the slitter is wounded as badly as the slittee.  

Blade edge to front hammer (point away from thumb) grip plunging inward try to get the point into the spinal column for better effect.  As the knife is in work it sideways with sawing motion to open the wound to let the blood flow.  I'm told it is a moderately clean technique if you open the windpipe, as the blood poors into it and less is on you.

The knife you have dictates the technique!  
A DAGGER or STILLETTO and most BAYONETS is all about the point.  PUNCTURING=you dont cut steak with a letter opener
A KNIFE is about the edge CUTTING.

If you have a knife here are reccomendations
1.  at least 5 inch blade
2.  serrated, preferably torwards the point, the first few inches of the knife do the work.
3.  if balanced it is generally throwable, wouldn't reccomend but it is an option.

The exception would be the Ghurka knife th KHUKRI/KHUKURI it is a cleaving weapon.  It is unbalanced as extra weight on the blade edge makes it adept at removing large chunks head, rifle arm, and others.

Generally, if I wanted to kill someone quickly or silently with a knife, I'd grab his mouth with one hand and stab in the hollow of the throat, into the armpit and heart, or right where the neck meets the shoulder, between the bones. Assuming blade length is five inches or more anyway. Cutting doesn't do enough damage with a knife, stabbing is the best use of one.

Of course, I'm a saber fencer, so stabbing doesn't usually come into the equation.

So you'd want a DAGGER?  Respectfully did you read the whole post?  Different weapon different technique, I'm sure everyone appreciates your contribution though.  The hollow in the shoulder offers the best access to the aorta as I understand it, that arm can be a pain to get around.  Also your targets range of motion is stronger arm at the side than it is trying to reach up and behind to stop your attack.  The hollow is the better target, good pointer though!  Blade length is a must.

When the blue helmets/Soviets/Cubans/aliens from Star Trek invade, we'll need to know a way of defending ourselves without going out guns blazing.

And speaking from experience, a deer with its esophogus and veins slit totally through will live long enough to kick your friend in the shin and give you a "what the fuck did I ever do to you" look.

Sounds about right the grip change is a bitch though.  It's a funny thing the recipient doesn't cooperate like we feel they should.  If you can get your arms around the head and control it a choke/neckbreak technique is better.

If you have a long, sharp knife, you can also slit the diaphragm. No air in lungs = no scream. With the shock of the kidney stab, he won't be thrashing about while suffocating and gives you long enough to stab him again in a more immediately lethal part of the body. Unless you use a thin, flexible blade, you might be able to stab him in the temple and drive into the brain.

The cool thing about hunting is that animal physiology is close enough to human that you can find lots of ways to exploit the bodies weaknesses.

Not unless you count a few boxing/wrestling moves I picked up fighting with my friends. In hand to hand combat, I generally rely on the element of surprise. Few people expect someone of my build to move as fast as I do, and by the time they catch on, their nose is broken and their nuts got cracked.

I've tried taking classes with a ninjitsu instructor near where I live, but he keeps moving his gym around and I'm always one step behind him.

My great-grandfather used to slaughter cattle by hitting them between the eyes with a ball-pein hammer. I bet my uncle remembers the details of hammer weight, point of impact, pein vs. face, number of blows, etc. Also, he once tried to put a horse down by shooting it between the eyes with an Iver Johnson .32, but all 5 slugs lodged in the barrel, and he had to use a hammer on the horse as well. I do not know if it was the same hammer. I can probably interview older relatives and get details on proper hammer selection for equine as contrasted with bovine liquidation ops. I myself once killed a wounded cat with an axe. Oddly enough, the brain does not appear to be an area of particular vulnerability in felines.

I will watch my IM inbox, and plan my research based on the activity I observe there.
