the thing that all the pro-knifers seem to be not considering (although I didn't read every post) is that they're just going to charge directly at the bat guy and the bat guy is going to stand there frozen. the bat guy, if he has any sense, is obviously going to put a last-second juke on the charging knife guy, which he should be able to gain a slight advantage from.

also, everybody talking about monster swings or whatever, I think the batter's strategy should be to choke up a few inches for the first swing and try to just put it in play to the the opposite field to land a dizzying/painful blow, then retreat to a safe distance if the knifer recovers. if the knifer is dazed more considerably, then choke down and swing for the fences.
