  1. Thank you for the article. It was great!

  2. How do you find out about more throwing knife competitions? I’m an expert knife thrower but do not know any connections to finding out about competitions and tournaments.

  3. Awesome. I wish they had competitions like this where I’m from and I love that everyone wore traditional garb too.
