Which shape are you referring to? As far as the shur-knife design we did, it is for both looks and function. The new design that Pat came up with doesn't have...
I,m thinking about any knife, is there any point in anything other than a basic strip with a point? ... function. The new design that Pat came up with doesn't...
Guards are not important to have on a throwing knife; I concur with Roy. But they might make a nice design element sometimes, just for looks. ERT ... From: Roy...
Yeah guards will unbalance a throwing knife, so you would need a pommel to help counter balance to throw in a conventional manner. Guards look nice and give a...
John Actually, straight is better if you want to do spin control, cause it gives better slideability from the hand ,which is something you really need in long...
Charles If you put the guard in the Center of the knife, it will not counterbalance it. Ok, its Not the way for Normal knives, but for a throwing knife it...
Hi Dalmo, Putting a guard in the centre of a blade would only counterbalance it if the blade and the grip had the same weight. Even then it would be a bit ...
Roy, A friend of mine in the throwing world would really like to check out your long thin design with the stick on handles, like the one you sent me. Do you...
Well the basic design will be allot like a bayonet, with a slight swoop on the cutting edge almost like a saber. I have made some "throwing Implements" but I...
Ralph I dont have any left at all. Ive been meaning to make a few more for others who have asked, but I just have not got around to it, and I dont think I...

Bobby, It is great to hear from you. I will get my friend to contact you offline about this. You know him; he doesn't like publicity so I don't put his name on...

Roy, Could you find some way to post the drawing or specs on that knife design online? Like a picture on the group site, maybe? That way both Bobby and the...

Hello At first i want to apologize about my poor english. I'm from Germany. I hope you'll be able to understand what I want to tell you: I have always been...
Guten Tog Forgive my bad German please! As you say everyone has a way of doing things that they think is the correct way and I don't say they are wrong (for...
German guy, Sorry you left no name. Leave aside all of the methods that you have read, they will only confuse and make it impossible to understand. Joes...
I appreciate the backup on this one Roy, although after reading what I wrote and what you wrote I was probably just too damned long winded and confused the...
Joe, The method you use for the blade throw, with the thumb on top, found its way into both my recent videos after I learned it from Dalmo. It appears in the...
Hi Ralph At one time many years ago I had a Military TM (Training Manual) that showed this way of throwing Bayonets, I have been trying to locate either my ...
Joe Ive often found that anybody who has never thrown a knife before, and wants to learn the blade throw, has a really hard time. These are the type of...
Joe Mat is also a friend of Ralph an mine, to be honest Both you and Ralph introduced him to me, as I´m what Roy calls an " all around thrower", maybe/surelly...
