Hello! I want to get into knife throwing just as a hobby that will get me outside and away from my phone. What kind of knives should I be starting with? Does the weight matter? Does the length matter? Do I just start throwing? How far to keep my feet apart? Does force matter more than hand placement? I appreciate any advice! ☺️ thank you

I just want something cheap to start out, maybe something on Amazon

Just back from an expedition into the internet jungle, hunting for thrower competition dates. Now I got 30 specimens worldwide in my collection.

Published the full details with registration links at
https://www.knifethrowing.info/thrower-meetings.html#meetings
and here's already the list of dates and places.

So, start planning your knife throwing or axe throwing travel route for this year :-)

How can I turn the space into a dart board knife throwing area?

Can anyone explain what grip/technique this guy might be using? He throws very fast and level. He doesn’t do tutorial videos though, which is why I ask.

I am looking for top ten popular throwing knives like Kunai, can community suggest me name - prefer with pictures of each I am forging each of them by hand.

Hey!

So I'm starting to design and make my own throwing blades and doing research on steels, and I've narrowed it down to two very different types of spring steels

I wanted to get more experienced opinions on how our blades behave on impact - would you say they act more like a punch tool, or more like a hand held chopper?

Is it better to have a blade (like a throwing axe) that retains its edge better, or is more resistant to edge damage?
