As someone who has been stabbed, you have no clue what you are saying Kristin. A knife close range is more deadly than a gun, as you have multiple angles to kill with, while a gun has one, barrel pointed at you.
My first LE course back in the day had my instructor with a knife 20 feet away, and me with a holstered but cleared firearm. I was instructed to pull and fire before I got stabbed. Three tries, and I died three times.
In a gun fight, you cannot pick and choose what to shoot at, the adrenal dump causes loss of fine motor skills, that's one of the reasons why any firearm training consists of hitting center mass. Pick the largest target, and aim to stop the nervous system. More advanced training like the Mozambique would give the press a field day, but are way more practical in a life and death situation.
