This is darts for freaks, professionell knife throwing looks different. Just look for no-spin knife throwing if you are interested in real professionell knife throwing.

If you have someone throw the knife so that the Handle hits, or reduce the spin, it won't be as hard. Maybe dull the knife or use a Wooden Knife for practice.

Catching one is easy. Catching the second one is much harder
It's great that there is a world knife throwing league but I wish they would expand the styles of knife throwing and knives and allow throws like military half spin and no spin throwing.

Awesome new competition, love seeing the amazing knife skills❤ I want to get into it because it looks like so much fun! Definitely a new sub here! The good sportsmanship of the competitors and the spectators is refreshing
There needs to be a 501 darts version of this
My dad made me some throwing knives when I was a kid (probably to get me to stop throwing his hunting knife), it was great fun. You can make a good set from flat bar stock with not much more than a hacksaw and a file. A bench grinder helps, though. No need to buy fancy daggers.
THIS! WAS! COOL!
LOL yeah was like watching bowling...the judges added more entertainment 😂 maybe if the targets were moving
So all those years i spent throwing knives for fun and getting yelled at were for nothing? I could have been training for an actual league? Hahaha
Still more watchable and interesting than the WNBA.

Not complicated enough
''build out the infrastructure'' why say OUT there, its pointless, surely ''build the infrastructure'' is the correct wording.
I think you guys should do a lot more combat simulation knife throwing. Get their heart rate going, have them turn around at the sound of a beep then be timed and scored for quickest throw and most accurate. Put them on a course, like professional shooters. That's what i wanna see! Show me the best knife throwing warrior, not the best knife throwing nerd.

I've learned how to throw a knife without rotation Straight like a dart
ESPN8 the Ocho.
these refs are way too enthusiastic
So strange to me that regulation knives have a hilt
@stoopidhaters
4 ай бұрын
The hilt keeps the Knife stable so it sticks into the Vertical Grain target better. It's not necessary but it helps especially for beginners. I think End Grain/Log Rounds (Traditionally most KT comps used them) aren't used here because the Knives won't stick in as good if they under or over rotate. For No-Spin or any throw that reduces the spin, End Grain is ideal because the knife barrel rolls making it harder to stick into a Vertical Grain target. My guess is this was only for Axes so some of these guys are probably Axe throwers (Knives are harder and cost more) who decided to try the Knife throwing league.
Didn't know Luke from Outdoor Boys was a knife throwing judge.
Requiring a certain number of rotations is antithetical to the goal of knife throwing. You can't give it full force from 10 ft. if you're also required to have a full rotation. Notice how gently they're throwing? Number of rotations shouldn't be a requirement.
is that one ref, Luke from the Outdoor Boys channel?
If you don't have Lorena Bobbitt doing play-by-play next year you will let the world down, and worse, you let yourself down.

Blah. Single rotation darts, I call it. A much more interesting competition would be random distances and moving targets. The competitors would have to decide on rotation and direction with every throw. THAT is when you'd see the really skilled throwers.
We all know what the bottom bullseye represents...
"World" ? or was this the Dallas open.
They should go through combat target course like.for guns
If you played darts, you could have a couple of pints and nobody would be worried
Next up on the Ocho...
Can't just throw to the opponent for the win?
Hi. Can i ask how much waight knife for competition? Because i Europe it is minimum 230g. I see you use very big knife 👍😉
lol You imagine getting into a serious argument with your wife about the sharpness of your blade and how you need alone time to practice being one with it.
dont exactly throw like ninjas do they? More like 8 year old girls throwing a tennis ball lol
These throwers are very good!
Sport?
Did any other countries attent this typical American 'world' championship?
First time hearing of this sport but seems like a awkard idea to have them do it side by side as it looked like mike philabaum waited for the other throw everytime so if the other guy dropped his knife then he knows to go for a safer choice or adjust to what the other guy did, dont know if i missed something but seems odd
how did I end up here?
Why make it so complicated, just have a target erm….. like shooting or archery or darts???

For those wondering about the masks, this match was during Covid.
Wtf that really exist ????? Hahahahaha

I’m actually a professional knife thrower, but I don’t throw anything like these guys do. I wonder if No-spin or half spin techniques are allowed? That’s how I throw and I don’t have to worry about how far from the target I am.

Can you not hold the blade when throwing? Seems more natural.
@stoopidhaters
4 ай бұрын
Because the distances are set optimally for Full Spin ➡️⬇️⬅️⬆️➡️ and Double Spin Handle throws. The rules probably allow Blade Throws, but you'd be doing yourself a disservice because the first line is to far for a Quarter Spin Throw so you'd have to do a 1½ spin throw which forces you to either add extra spin or move back to make up for the extra spins.. Even if they added a Quarter Spin throw line, it's basically like throwing Point Blank. I do think they should add another line for 1 ½ spin Throws just to add variety.
But why are they throwing them like that? Theres so many different ways to throw a knife, and the way they are throwing them isn't even close to ideal.
