The Art & Sport of Throwing Knives

Brief History

The origins of throwing knives can be traced back to various cultures where they served multiple purposes. In some cases, they were used as tools for hunting and self-defense, while in others, they were a form of entertainment in acrobatic performances. Over time, this utilitarian practice metamorphosed into a unique sport that still to this day, gains popularity and can now be found on major network sports channels like ESPN. 

Design & Technique

Throwing knives are distinct from typical utility knives. They are usually one-piece, balanced, and may lack a cutting edge. Precision and balance are of paramount importance. Knife throwers perfect the art of accurately releasing the blade to hit a target with finesse. Achieving the right distance and number of rotations is critical for success.
Intriguing, challenging, and steeped in tradition, throwing knives represent a fascinating blend of history, art, and athleticism. Whether pursued as a competitive sport or a leisurely pastime, mastering the art of knife throwing requires dedication, skill, and the utmost commitment to safety.
