Quick question: if one were to learn Escrima and identify the 12 angles of attack(and everything that correspondes with it) would it also increase the ability to ward off someone who used a stick/bottle/knife/whatever against you? Even if one was un-armed?

I'm a stickler for finding martial arts that also have "reverse" techniques that allow you to take out those who also incorporate the art.
