Throwing Knives – The Flying Edge
In the art of throwing, where precision and balance define success, throwing knives are the perfect extension of instinct and skill. Forged to fly with harmony and stability, these knives transform arm strength into a precise, silent movement.
The art of throwing
Throwing knives —also known as throwing knives —are used in sports, military training, and recreation. Unlike conventional knives, their design achieves the perfect balance between blade and handle, allowing for controlled spins and precise trajectories. Weight, symmetry, and mass distribution are essential for achieving a straight and stable throw.
Design and features
These knives typically feature a thin, pointed blade, with a partial or dull edge to prevent accidental cuts while gripping. They are made of tempered stainless steel or carbon steel , giving them the strength needed to withstand repeated impacts without warping. Some models are all metal, while others include a cord or non-slip rubber on the handle to improve grip.
Balance and usage techniques
A good throwing knife should have a center of gravity that's centered or slightly forward, depending on the thrower's technique. There are full-rotation and non-rotation throwing styles, and each requires a specific weight-to-length ratio. Constant practice improves accuracy, strength, and control, turning each throw into an exercise in concentration and balance.
Types of throwing knives
Monobloc: A single piece of steel, ideal for training and durability. • Balanced: With distributed mass for throwing either from the blade or the handle. • Competition: Calibrated to standardized measurements for sports. • Decorative: Inspired by historical or fantasy models, intended for display or collecting.
The edge that defies gravity
More than weapons, throwing knives are instruments of precision, discipline, and artistry. Each throw is a dance between power and control, between steel and air. Discover training, competition, and collectible throwing knives at the Medieval Shop and master the flight of the blade.
