Format:Paperback
Awesome book on the one and three inch punch. THESE punching techniques are deadly and needs a lot of practice to perform it the way De'mile does it. Buy it if you want to know how to keep inside yourself a very strong knockpunch[if used on the jaw or solar plexus}that can be usefull against an physical fight
I couldn't get it to work for me...

Format:Paperback
I got this book a few years ago hoping I could learn to do this infamous technique. I read the thing in less than an hour and tried following the guide and could not get mine to work. I am not saying that it won't work for you ($5? Come on, it's just $5, if it were $20 I'd be upset). It may or may not, some people have had it work.
However, I later took up Wing Tsun (Bruce Lee's art) and realized my mistake. The technique takes all of 5 minutes to be taught it, and then perfecting it takes a long time. There are no exercises needed like explained in the book.
Nothing special, didn't work

I originally bought this book a couple years ago hoping I could learn this parlor trick of a technique to show off to people at parties. I read the book several times, but couldn't figure it out. Later I took up Wing Tsun (which contains the punch) and realized after being taught the punch, it is nothing like described in the book. .... Nothing great in my opinion.

Not a good book, but a decent pamphlet.
It is 40 (small) pages long, and half of the space is taken up by photographs. The information is OK, but you could probably find all this and more online and for free.

barely worth the paper it's printed on
