RC-1793B Throwing Knife Set with Three Knives

I've been interested in trying to get into knife throwing just as another fun trick / skill to entertain me and prove control over different instruments ; I prefer using a no spin technique because a spin technique requires thinking about the rotations the blade will make before impacting with your target (wood with cardboard taped in front of it in my case).Looks pretty good though the sheath is a bit dodgy and I cannot say how long it will hold up.

Throws well

These seem to be of a good quality, and well made.They came very sharp, so could be used as throwing knives, or even as survival knives.They look just like the Gil Hibben Large Professional Throwing Knives, and even have the exact same etchings, and lanyard cutouts, but they are a little bit thinner, and about 1 inch shorter.If Gil Hibben made a Medium Professional Throwing Knife, these would be those knives.I have several of the Large Gil Hibben sets myself, and ordered 3 sets of these, primarily for my 24 year old son, and 16 year old daughter.I am putting together bug-out bags for each member of my family, should the need arise, and each bug-out bag is fully equipped, in the event that we should ever get separated.I would purchase these again. Especially for the price.You can't beat the price, for the quality of these knives.I will say that I ordered 2 sets in stainless, and 1 set in black.But, I received 3 stainless sets.I'm still happy with the blades for the price paid.

The Best price Awesome set. I definitely will be buying more

ill just start by saying im no world pro thrower, however i am a rookie semi pro thrower. ive been throwing for 10 years now and out of the probably 20 sets i’ve owned at different price points, this is THE BEST set ive owned. ill list pros and cons from here starting with the pros. They throw great, i just got in from testing them out and you can easily throw no spin, half and full spin. the tip comes sharpened for the first half centimeter or so and the rest of the edge is squared, which is perfect for a thrower. i threw some with all my force to test durability and there was no bending or breaking. with the knife i had previously no spin was impossible so i didnt even know if i could do it and landed it from 18ft the first throw with these, they penetrated my target deep and i was able to adjust to them extremely fast and within 10 minutes i was sticking 8-9 out of 10 throws. now to the cons, I will admit they are a bit light as some other reviews have stated but it doesnt hinder its usability. they are well balanced but the center of gravity is just about between the handle notches and the spider emblem, it doesn’t affect it much at all from what i can tell so far but just worth noting. and the last thing would be when you dont stick them, due to their weight the rebound around 10 ft occasionally. all in all id compare these with competition throwers such as a set from acejet i used to have, they are AMAZING knives at an insanely low costs and definitely suitable for new and well experienced throwers. ill definitely be keeping these in my collection. and for anyone who watches yt video reviews id highly recommend not listening to anything halfspin had to say about these, he had no clue what he was talking about.

tip broke

These were my first set of throwing knives, ever. I got 3 black, 3 bare metal, shipped quick. Made a cardboard target to start. Threw my first 3 knives. 2 of them stuck. Cool. Must have been the hours of videos I watched and practicing my form before I even got the knives. Threw about 50 more and then my cardboard target (about 6 layers of cardboard taped together with a circle marked with sharpie for the center/only target). So, I have pieces of wood laying around, so I use a hard outdoor pressure treated wood slab, about 5 feet long (height for my target) and 2 feet wide (enough side to side length so that I don't miss and hit a cat or something). Over the next 3 days, I had thrown those knives a good 1,000+ times. Then I let my friends try. Even with way more misses and "tings" and "tangs" of the metal hitting wood and echoing across my street, the knives still held up. Now we're at a few weeks later, I probably practice throwing about an hour or so a day give or take, have learned the no-spin throw from many distances, and the half-spin (holding blade side) throw from my comfortable distance. Learned 2 underhand throws, all with these knives. I've now started throwing larger 12"+ knives, and getting the feel of throwing a smaller knife like this gave me a lot more confidence with throwing larger knives, machetes, swords.Yes, if you miss a lot, or don't have a soft surface for your knives to fall on (for me, dirt or grass), you will start to notice chips in the blade. However, this doesn't take away from the throwing ability. Those who say they can't get these to stick are most likely just not doing it correctly (form, speed, distance, how it slides off your finger(s), height of the target, type of target, etc.).Whenever I miss a few throws in a row or they don't stick, I either move closer to the target, have a more fluid motion and almost slow it up a little to figure out what's going on with my throw, OR I'll toss some throws straight down into a piece of wood on the floor or even straight into dirt. It helps show me if my knife is over-rotating, under-rotating, going sideways, wobbling out of my hand instead of sliding out smooth, etc.It's definitely a fun hobby. I've made a few targets now and for me it's just a dart game with a new kind of throwing tool.I've seen people throw pocket knives, hunting knives, machetes, swords, nails, screwdrivers, scissors, and get them all to stick. I'm not at that level yet, but these blades gave me a good starting point to work on the basics of knife throwing.So yes, I give it 5 stars. Best first (and second) set of blades I bought. Thanks.
