Having problems with message search?
Yes, it is - but I concentrate solely on combat/SD aspect of knife throwing, so I don't throw on longer distances than 4, maybe 5 meters. 3 meters or closer? I can sink practically anything - screwdrivers, steak knives, spikes, center-balanced knives, handle-heavy knives, shears, cleavers... I use mostly sidehand throw, because I find it to be easiest (particularly when throwing weird things) and almost as powerfull as the overhand.

I've been working at no spin throwing, using the Ralph Thorn book as my
bible, and having a lot of fun with it.
However, I'm having trouble breaking the 16 foot barrier. I think it
is partly that the knives I am using are a bit short (about 10.5") and
partly my own novice skill level.
I'm looking at buying a handful of longer throwers -- probably the Cold
Steel Perfect Balance thrower, which occasions a question:
Is it possible to do effective no-spin throwing WITHOUT rebalancing a
knife to make it hilt heavy? The CS thrower is such a nicely shaped
bowie that I sort of hate to modify it for throwing when it could be
such a great multi-purpose blade.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
Cheers
