So, I take a different approach. I do anything and everything else I can to keep her safe(r). Essentially this boils down to me addressing the threat while she flees with the children and gets police assistance. This may not be the best approach, but it is what must be for us.

Actually, if your SO won't shoot or carry, that's a very good approach. Have a code word, like "Cover!" that tells her the mess is hitting the fan. At that word, she grabs the kids (if any) and heads for the deep forest with her cell phone, as you describe, while you confront the threat. Your body language and visible weapon will draw attention to you, and away from them.
