throwing knifes

RE: throwing knifes
I did Panandata knife throwing with a friend at uni. We went once a week and trained together most weekends. Only did it for a year. I would be comfortable hitting someone running towards me. But I know the strike wouldn't kill them outright. I would follow up and thrown knife with another one, and then a nice held stabbey one as well.

Most good quality throwing knives are pretty heavy. If you are using if for combat, you'd want a really heavy knife. If the blade doesn't stick in, it's still going to do some damage. The smaller ones you can get are just for show really. It took me 2 months to figure this out. I argued loads with the instructor. But guess who was wrong......me.

I think the Spetznas are the only special forcer in the world that carry a throwing knife. Most others don't see the purpose of throwing away a useful tool.

A throwing knife isn't a 'kill' weapon. It is the kind of weapon, like a ninja star (shuriken) that was used to damage, not to kill. The only time a ninja used to use a type of shuriken to kill was the long spike weapons, straight through the eye, or if they used poison.
