Knives are an interesting subject. You don't need any training to inflict serious damage. However, training will enhance the ability to inflict the right kind of damge.
I don't agree with this:

Anyone can seriously cut anyone with a knife regardless of their training. A person might have a lot of experience with knife defense and they can still be seriously cut by a person without any training.
Of course having training is better.
If you're being attacked by someone with a knife, the best defense is running away.
If you're being attacked and have nothing but a knife, you're able to effectively defend yourself, but you'll most likely cut yourself in the process.
It's a really fine point of law. The antis just haven't decided to attack it yet. They're too busy writing laws about guns.
