If you think knife throwing is just for odd-looking folks who perform stunts at the freak show, where have you been the last few decades? Just last week, even The New York Times wrote a fascinating story about the sport of knife throwing.
In honor of the growing sport, our latest Badass Knife of the Week is a set of throwers for beginners and experts alike.
The United Cutlery Lightning Bolt Triple Throwing Set is billed as the first-ever self-defense throwing knife set that you can carry discreetly. While self-defense isn’t the most practical purpose for this set, the knives make a darn good set of throwers for those looking to break into the hobby.
Here’s a look at the silver versions:
Each of the three 5.5-inch throwers is made from a single piece of AUS-6 stainless steel with black coating, which bolsters the durability of the knife and dampens the reflective property of the steel.
The 2-inch spear point blade features razor sharp edges on both sides for a satisfying stick in your target. Cutouts in the handle help balance out the weight of the knife for a consistent throw every time.
The three knives each lock into the hard ABS sheath that you can wear on your belt. A nylon shoulder harness included with the knives also gives you the option for concealed carry in case an impromptu throwing competition breaks out.
