Need a throwing knife for the wife...

[TaunTaun]

The wife has requested a throwing knife or set for Christmas. She is getting back into it and needs something that will hold up to some practice, yet isn't overly expensive to start out with.

We're looking for something of some decent quality 440 steel, but is under $50. Preferably something that doesn't have paracord on the handle, etc, so suited almost soley to throwing. Sheath that would do well on boot cut jeans is also a plus.

Any help would be appreciated.

Do a search for Gil Hibben karate thrower set. 3 knives, nice leather sheath, heard it's a decent set.

These from SOG are fun and a good value I think. One you learn how to stick them it's pretty easy.

Oops they may not meet the no paracord or boot placement qualities you are looking for.

Have you done anything wrong lately?!

I would buy a stabproof vest just in case.

I have a set of those SOG knives. I haven't really tossed them around because I moved into an apartment shortly after I picked them up, but I hear they break on the "O" in SOG after a few failed tosses.

AKTA has a few sets up for sale at $50 i believe. the procceeds go to fund the American Knife Throwers Association, their events, and classes. Bobby Branton is who i would call the "go to" guy on throwing knives. he makes all types. traditional, no spin, and exotics..... all proven and copied time and time again.

the AKTA is auctioning them on facebook... the pouch they picture is NOT included, though.

All the more reason to carry in the home.

Have you tried to explain to her that she shouldn't throw a paring knife or chef's knife? I mean, isn't that all she needs?

I have heard good things about the ones from Cold Steel. I am picking up a set of stars for my sister in law (she is a third degree black belt).

Depends on what you are throwing at and why. Competition or just for playing. I sell some throwing knives and can order almost anything.

Throwing stars in this state are illegal. Just an FYI.

Thanks for the heads up. I didn't know that. They live down in Kentucky though so she is ok.
