Knife throwing is one of those things, like Gun building, that could come in handy when you least expect it. How can you know when you’ll be kidnapped, or when you might find yourself in a Williams and Sonoma during a robbery?

But knife throwing is also an entertaining and interesting sport. About a decade ago I received a set of throwing knives and a book on knife throwing for Christmas, and it is fun to be able to walk around your backyard taking out threatening trees.

If you would like to learn knife throwing yourself, get a set of throwing knives for practice. These knives are balanced and rugged (usually one piece of metal). Make a target out of 2x4s and make sure there is no way to hit someone if you miss the target. Then get a good book on knife throwing, or try these videos (which show several different styles):
