Thought I'd try my hand at making some throwing knives.

I put together a quick video to show them in action.

Very nice. Was the knife that struck low the same blade each time?

It's all the same clip - honest - I only threw three knives - hence the quit while I'm ahead comment. I replayed the throwing part three times while editing. The second was sped up (really too short a clip for that as it turns out), the third was slowed motion (when I did slow motion X3 it looked kind of neat, but took way too long to play) and the final was played at normal speed.

Way cool. Of course, I've seen us throw and I think you would have been waaaay ahead to have a point on both ends...and one on each side....and one in between each point...and a metal detector to find them when we miss.

Nice job. Those look like they are pretty well balanced. I like the finish as well.

I thought about that, but as you have pointed out - I've seen the way we throw. I figured there would be less of a chance to work on our first aid skills if I only made one end pointy.

nice. i always like to see nice throwers, even though i usually throw garbage [they're meant for chuckin' around, right?].

L6 throwers at that; those could be users while they are at it.

So, the short answer, is "yes", it's the same blade each time! :)
