Who's saying that. I don't know what you guys are talking about. There are no techniques designed to kill with one blow. Anyone saying that is full of it.

ichi go; ichi-e;

 

That's a japanese saying that means "One encounter, one chance". MA trains to finish someone with one blow, and it's no secret that the goal of the old school karateka was a one punch kill. There wasn't a set technique for it though, AFAIK. They hoped to achieve that level through their training. punching the makiwara, booulders, etc. was part of the training set to help them achieve their goal.

it might translate into

 

'one encounter, one chance'

 

but that does not necessarily mean one hit kills.

 

you have to remember that you are giving meaning to something that has been traslated loosely into english.

 

looking at it (and using cantonese as a comparison) i think it means

 

you do not waste opportunity - you do not do anything half hearted.

 

give all you can or give none at all, if you like.

You can have a one hit one kill. Hit a guy knock him out hits head on ground and then dies. CAN happend. But the odds of it... who knows. Or even the throat. -Jeff

here we go again...

 

why not just say that a sharp blow causes a blood clot and the guy drops dead a few years later?

 

like i say.

 

i think it means finish in one 'exchange', not one 'hit'
