Perfect Point Throwing Knives, Set of 3, Skeleton Handle, Belt Sheath

These were my first set of throwing knives, ever. I got 3 black, 3 bare metal, shipped quick. Made a cardboard target to start. Threw my first 3 knives. 2 of them stuck. Cool. Must have been the hours of videos I watched and practicing my form before I even got the knives. Threw about 50 more and then my cardboard target (about 6 layers of cardboard taped together with a circle marked with sharpie for the center/only target). So, I have pieces of wood laying around, so I use a hard outdoor pressure treated wood slab, about 5 feet long (height for my target) and 2 feet wide (enough side to side length so that I don't miss and hit a cat or something). Over the next 3 days, I had thrown those knives a good 1,000+ times. Then I let my friends try. Even with way more misses and "tings" and "tangs" of the metal hitting wood and echoing across my street, the knives still held up. Now we're at a few weeks later, I probably practice throwing about an hour or so a day give or take, have learned the no-spin throw from many distances, and the half-spin (holding blade side) throw from my comfortable distance. Learned 2 underhand throws, all with these knives. I've now started throwing larger 12"+ knives, and getting the feel of throwing a smaller knife like this gave me a lot more confidence with throwing larger knives, machetes, swords.Yes, if you miss a lot, or don't have a soft surface for your knives to fall on (for me, dirt or grass), you will start to notice chips in the blade. However, this doesn't take away from the throwing ability. Those who say they can't get these to stick are most likely just not doing it correctly (form, speed, distance, how it slides off your finger(s), height of the target, type of target, etc.).Whenever I miss a few throws in a row or they don't stick, I either move closer to the target, have a more fluid motion and almost slow it up a little to figure out what's going on with my throw, OR I'll toss some throws straight down into a piece of wood on the floor or even straight into dirt. It helps show me if my knife is over-rotating, under-rotating, going sideways, wobbling out of my hand instead of sliding out smooth, etc.It's definitely a fun hobby. I've made a few targets now and for me it's just a dart game with a new kind of throwing tool.I've seen people throw pocket knives, hunting knives, machetes, swords, nails, screwdrivers, scissors, and get them all to stick. I'm not at that level yet, but these blades gave me a good starting point to work on the basics of knife throwing.So yes, I give it 5 stars. Best first (and second) set of blades I bought. Thanks.

I love these, recently lost one in the woods, will be buying another set. They are very easy to use for a total beginner, and depite being sharp, I have never been cut by them yet despite having them ricochet or slip from my hands numerous times. They are durable and don't chip easily. They are really well balanced and I can throw them with accuracy in any manner I choose, holding the the tip, center, end of handle, throwing it like a dart, etc. They imbed nicely into just about any dead tree or wooden scrap, and stay there. My only complaints are that the little holster is a bit on the cheap side, and that the black paint scratches off very quickly. I regret buying the black coloration over the silver only because it makes them very hard to find in leaf litter (hence the one I lost).

These seem to be of a good quality, and well made.They came very sharp, so could be used as throwing knives, or even as survival knives.They look just like the Gil Hibben Large Professional Throwing Knives, and even have the exact same etchings, and lanyard cutouts, but they are a little bit thinner, and about 1 inch shorter.If Gil Hibben made a Medium Professional Throwing Knife, these would be those knives.I have several of the Large Gil Hibben sets myself, and ordered 3 sets of these, primarily for my 24 year old son, and 16 year old daughter.I am putting together bug-out bags for each member of my family, should the need arise, and each bug-out bag is fully equipped, in the event that we should ever get separated.I would purchase these again. Especially for the price.You can't beat the price, for the quality of these knives.I will say that I ordered 2 sets in stainless, and 1 set in black.But, I received 3 stainless sets.I'm still happy with the blades for the price paid.

I purchased 5 sets of these knives, and gave one to each member of our family for a Christmas present; I am always on the lookout for stuff we can do as a family that is new and different. So, I am not an expert. However, I do try and read reviews and I had read up on these knives, and they appeared to be a good buy. My hubby built a nice target board out of reclaimed cedar boards from an old deck we had. The knives came out of their boxes much sharper than I expected. They have decent heft, and, once you figure out how to throw them (it takes a while and EVERYONE has their own opinion on how to do it), they make a very satisfying THUNK when they penetrate, and they have enough weight to travel quite a distance, and I have no doubt that they could do serious damage if ever thrown at a person. I am looking forward to getting better at it. Kids are already saying we need a "dart board" pattern on the board so we can have more & different types of competition. (the first few times you are just trying to figure out how to get them to "stick")Anyway, we have been out a few times and the knives are holding up very well. Being from Wisconsin, we started out in a garage due to the cold, but I worried about the knives being damaged from bouncing off the concrete floor all the time. They weren't, but we moved outside, and that is definitely better. When they bounce off the board and land on the ground they don't bounce, they just stick in the ground, so I think its safer, too. I sponged a blotches of different colored acrylic paint on the handles where the grip grooves are, to tell them apart. All in all, I am very pleased with them and would buy again (in fact, already did as another gift for a friend). So if you are looking for a "price is right" beginner set, I don't think you can go wrong buying these knives.

Good throwing knives.

I am a newbie. So these knife is only for fun. They are very small and light. If you are a beginner, better get 10-12 inches and more than half lb throwers. Those are easy to start with. If you don't already have some basic skills, throwing these can be a little frustrating. Quality not bad, just not for beginners

Nicely balanced, lightweight, incredibly fun hobby!

I purchased these more for decor, as i have a table dedicated to blades. And i liked they way they looked. I just recently tested them out and they work very well. They are lightweight and the points are pretty sharp. The blade itself is dull so you dont potentially cut your fingers when used. They look like they can be sharpened though. They seem to stick pretty well in softer wood targets i wouldn't reccomend anything hard as i feel the tips could bend.The sheath is better than i expected, the nylon sheathe holds all 3 knives at once and it doesnt take a whole lot of room on your belt. the inside feels durable and the strap to keep the hilts together seems to work really well.All in all a great buy

Great knives Thanks

These were the least expensive throwing knife I could find of this shape. I was surprised to find they were fairly well balanced and consistent.

I like the deal

I like these. Rigid and well balanced. I prefer the combat throwing style and these work great. Came with a quality feeling nylon sheath. For the money these are awesome for some backyard entertainment.

Only came with the point sharpened. All three knives only had the point sharpened. Check their picture and the sharpening went down the entire blade
