Re: Knife Throwing

Would be awesome if you had the camera up close to your target board so we could see the impact :) But otherwise, very cool! :TU:

noted my friend! I'm trying to get hold of some zombie targets to throw at.
The satisfaction of putting one right between the eyes is to much to resist :lol:
I'll definately get a close up then :TU:

Re: Knife Throwing

I used to throw but I have lost both of my throwers, when I sharpened up my friends Glock feild knife I threw that around a bit but I need to pick me up some throwers and get back into that.

Re: Knife Throwing

I love to throw knives. i've only got one well balanced one, but I prefer normal steak knives. Better training for self defense. Good real life situation tests. Note though, you have to be really proficient to actually resort to using knife throwing for self defense. I am not yet, but I'll get there. Keep it up Logan!!!

btw how far do you throw from normally?

Re: Knife Throwing

I've tried throwing from all ranges upto 15 meters but my most success
and accuracy comes from 6 to 4 meter ranges i can pretty much land most knives from that range :TU:
but i'm currently working on the no spin throw from any range

Nice, with a warm up on a good day I can hit about 5m but 15m! that's nice man! I prefer not to use spin at all. It seems a bit superfluous if you can do the same thing without spinning it and estimating number of spins etc.

Keep posting stuff :pirate_ANGRY: (this is my happy face)

Re: Knife Throwing

Huh, Renaissance could you maybe make a video tutorial on how to do it without spin?

Unfortunately, I don't make videos. :( I'm more of a watching guy. Granted, if I were challenged I'd probably find a way to film it, I prefer to keep my information on the internet to a minimum. Maybe one day though; you never know what summer will bring :pirate_sail:

Alright, rule 1. Always use non-folding knives. It's not that it can't be done (I've seen people throw bali's) But to start off, your going to want full tang knives. if you use a folding knife before your proficient, your going to break it. Pocket knives (like victornox or leatherman) are way too handle heavy to throw with any real affect. If foldiers are your only way, try your best to find a knife that is balanced either where your pointer finger would rest in a hammer grip or at the pivot point. Just makes things easier and cheaper in the long run (you'll break less knives ;) :lol: )
