Cutting close

Cutting Close is a raw, unfiltered dive into one of the most dangerous moments a police officer can face—a heartbeat away from death on a city sidewalk.

What started as a quiet patrol shift turns into a life-or-death confrontation when a suspect reaches for a 25-centimeter blade. Time slows. Instincts take over. And what happens next is a brutal dance between survival and tragedy—fought with muscle memory, grit, and a partner’s shouted warning that cuts through the chaos.

Told with brutal realism and a pulse-pounding pace, Cutting Close captures the split-second decisions officers must make under extreme pressure. It’s a story about how close the edge really is—and what it feels like to stare into the eyes of someone who’s already crossed it.
