Hello both Roy's

  I can tell you that I was one of the co founder's of The IKTHOF, I know all the parties that were spoken about and there is not a shred of truth to any of what that person has posted!

  He came to the throw in NJ. last year and after calling the group a bunch of Nazi's was given a refund and asked to leave, it was done with respect and sincerity as I was there, now that the NJ. throw is coming up in a few weeks and he was also banned from the Throwers List he apparently looked for another place to vent his perceived wrongs, I certainly applaud Roy from England (who I believe is the moderator of this group) for expelling this person who clearly has an axe to grind (no pun intended)!!!

 

  I know that all emails can be traced through and ISP number so I'm sure any authority be it legal or some other agency can locate the person and in my personal opinion what he did was defame and slander some good people which to my knowledge is a criminal offense and that his emails could certainly be used if litigation were the way any of those people wanted to go as Dalmo pointed out.

 

  I joined this list because I know there are some great throwers on here who don't just throw prescribed distances and way's that certain other groups do but that makes them no less of a knife thrower to me or anyone I know, the bull that this person was spouting in my opinion had no place on the list just as dating or Rock bands don't, that being said I won't bring up the subject again!

 

  I hope all who attend the NJ. throw or Christian Thiels Throw over in France have an awesome time and do well, if you aren't one for tournaments I hope that everyone takes advantage of the on and off rainy weather we've been having here in PA. and gets out and throws some knives or whatever it is you throw even if it's in your own backyard or with just a few friends.

 

 And by the way Roy from NH. I too have some Native American Blood and wear my Buck Skins when the opportunity arises and am proud of my heritage!

 

 On one other note I had the good fortune to spend this past weekend up in Salamanca NY. at Che Che White Clouds house with some good friends and we even threw a few knives.

  Che Che went through some bad cancer surgery late last year but he is looking good and back to his old cantankerous self,  I can tell you he is a great man and has forgotten more about throwing than I'll ever know and he and his lovely wife Nancy are the consummate hosts!
