1st replay (counter.rpl):
obviously not the best general opener, but if you know they're going to hold all/contract knees etc then this move is enough to deter them from doing it in the duels that follow
2nd replay (FoL counter.rpl):
a good general offensive opener originally used by fistoflife. pretty much the best counter possible imo
it could also work well as a defensive opener theoretically but it's more inconsistent than just kicking (like in the replay)
it's important to raise the rear hand because it keeps you closer to the ground and angles the kick just the right way. try messing around with it to see what u can do with it
also, if you find yourself unprepared for the contracted knees opener, these should be your priorities:
1. don't get pushed out or lifted (stay on the ground)
2. point mitigation
in that order.
edit: side note, i have perfected the stabjutsu superman opener. apologies for the file name
