With enough practice, you can get good at anything. Get injured enough, and, if you're still intact, eventually you'll gain some knowledge of how to fail to injure yourself. And also probably a lot more about how to succeed. X^]

honest question about the "no spin" throw. would it be no longer throwing a knife if it was weighted? a screw driver with a light handle and thick or long driver tend to be REALLY easy to throw. it doesnt rotate. and essentially throws like a knife. youd think ice picks would throw the same way but not really. anyways. ive never needed to guide with my finger. i just use stuff with a weighted tip. or is the average screw driver being a throwing dart just too much info for the internet to have?

I liked the sparks that happens when he went though the face mask.

Fencing masks are pretty tough... they are made to withstand A LOT OF force. A broken blade can kill you and the mask is there to prevent that. A FIE approved fencing mask can take up to 1600N, so it's pretty impressive that they can puncture it with a knife throw.

I loved doing this growing up. Started with screwdrivers, went up to hangers, and eventually did nails and needles. Always loved one upping some guy throwing knives. And yes, it ended up being a great real world skill years later... (facepalm) cleaning up the back room of an apparel store when someone broke a ton of hangers. It was literally faster to throw all the broken hangers than to carry them to the trash bin. The boss came in saw me and the roomie throwing them, and offered to 'catch' them to help. We both kind of looked at one another, turned back to him and said definitively "no." He didn't understand why... so I buried a hanger a foot and a half deep in a pile of cardboard and asked him to leave. LOVE throwing spikes and needles.

Seeing a man put a chopstick into a solid piece of wood makes me wonder why I own knives

I love how Jason was so proud of himself for catching the knife but immediately admitted it wad a terrible idea

honestly this seem like how you'd actually throw a knife in a battle, because you don't need to measure the distance as exactly.

brain is just jealous of that knife catch because Jason is a weapons master.... .. . sorta.

When I learned, the only thing I needed to be told was “finger on the spine, throw it like a baseball.”

11:23 I’ve never seen such a terrible idea executed so well

As much as I love watching you guys just doing stuff seeing the knife hacky sack trick at the very beginning just had me on edge the whole time. Also everytime you guys cocked back that knife I was like "please don't get face meat on your tips.". Jason Murphy? No, more like Jason Borne! Lmao

Another chance for Brian to wear his flip flops around knives. Im all for it.

after looking at the footage again and again... murphy is throwing scaredly because brian is in the way... brian has the advantage of not having nothing on the left where he is putting he balance after the throw... so he can give it a little more umph ... but murphy has the hand of brian at the beggining... and then he cant balance himself after the throw because brian is still there so he dont know if the hand of brian will return or do what. so he is throwing with less force and half the swing...

The hardest trick in knife throwing is throwing so perfectly that the knife bounces off the board and right back into your hand.

“there is face meat on this blade” I will never get tired of this channel, god you guys are awesome

Jason: * successfully catches a *spinning* knife out of the air without getting hurt * Brian, wearing flip-flops: "Stop being so unsafe!"

As a amateur knife thrower (100 hrs or so) which does no spin, I totally relate to him Hackie-Sacking the knife. I'm so use to having it ricochet pass me that it doesnt even faze me. Only the tip is sharp, but it is REALLY sharp!

I did this with my dad in the garage a few times. At first i tried throwing knives with the spins and flips, and while looking cool, nothing beat getting a solid step forward and letting the knife carry itself deep into the target. Nothing more satisfying then having trouble pulling the knife out after a nice solid 'thunk' Besides, most of the times i tried doing the flips and spins they bounced off or missed. While the no spin is really really great at low ranges. Very consistent. I'd say more consistent then the spins. Way less math, way more power, way more fun.

Knife hacky sack sounds like a great idea

Been waiting for something like this!

The thumbnail is a work of art and made me so excited to watch jason catch a falling knife

I recently took up no spin knife throwing and it took me like 3 days before I could get one to stick somewhat consistently. Going off of just KZread tutorials and a dead tree, and those exact knives they start with. They're like 20 bucks on Amazon for the 3, great for starting. I think the main thing that gave me grief was my hand wanted to tilt so my finger wouldn't follow the spine of the knife as it came out of my hand, so it would come out and like twirl diagonally.

the way brian yelled at Jason was like a father yelling at his kid for doing something dumb

Brian! At 11:18 you threw the knife with your finger tips! I love throwing knifes and you guys are obviously having too much fun! Love the videos!

Great job at demo of how to throw No-Spin knives. Lot of feel and time to get to that skill level Zach.

On the chopsticks into wood, I have actually in past been in the bush and chopped sticks with an angles tip, after which I spent an afternoon throwing them into trees.

What made the knife catching better is: 1. It worked when it never should have. 2. Brian had a completely normal reaction. 3. Jason ABSOLUTELY knew it was a bad idea as it was happening. 4. I was eventually able to breathe again through the laughter. I do get it, the instinct is to catch it, but channel that into jumping backwards away from the injury counter fan (the knife).

Wooooooow I've listened to this video 3 times today being distracted with chores and never looked up. This 4th time I look up and see the same knives I bought off Amazon 2 years ago being thrown during the 1st half on the video. SCZO throwers - 9" 8oz and I love them. Few know that the design is based on a knife first available to during the Vietnam era by a knife maker who's name escaped me but the design is battle tested.

"Brian's performance did not stop at production. He dedicated his body, his essence, his hair to the craft of entertainment by sculpting his visage into the wonder you see above"

Ayyy i discovered No-spin knife throwing several years ago and have gotten pretty good. So cool to see it on the channel!

the magician to knife-thrower pipeline isn't talked about enough

This reminds of the kinds of things I'd do during the boring down times while helping my dad around the house. I'd take screwdrivers or files and try to throw them so they stick in the ground. Got decently well at it, it usually would only take me one or two tries per item to stick them.

Great video

Brian - "You *CAUGHT* that knife..." Jason - "Yeah, that was a terrible idea." Anthony - "They're not *THAT* sharp..." It did look sick as hell, tbf.

11:23 that was both an absolutely horrendous idea and a badass one

Jason catching the knife reminded me of a fire juggler, who asked me to throw him a torch and when I screwed it up, he threw it back, saying "again please". I caught it and delivered a clean throw. It took him like 10 seconds to realize, he just trew a burning torch towards a 12 year old boy, expecting him to catch it. He went pale as snow apologizing profusely but it was all fine and I felt like a bada** for the rest of the day.

lmao i just left a comment on the old knife throwing video that no spinning is the technique i learned from eastern martial arts meant for actual combat XD

"No math", "Oops I miscalculated"

Wearing flip flops while throwing knives and Brian wants to yell about safety....think he'll wear proper shoes once he loses a toe? lol

Damn, nice Skitzo shirt Zachary!

Brian well knowing they'll be dealing with sharp objects during the shoot Wears sandals

Seeing those construction nails, so a little back story, I used to work on a golf course doing grounds keeping, and there was a random turf spike in our work cart, and the guy I was working with, was walking down the hill, he's like 200 feet away, I grab the turf spike and throw it like a throwing knife, and yelled "NAILED IT" thinking this thing would land next to him. It didn't. It did how ever go point first into the back of his head. I said about 1000 apologies and felt like poop about it, but, it's kind of funny now

Brian holds the knife the way Voldemort holds his wand

Oh my god they are evolving.... Jason caught a knife and DIDN'T reset the injury counter! WHAT MADNESS IS THIS???? HE MUST BE A CHANGLING!!!!
