Sticking the knife is such a satisfying sound
I write crime novels and am learning knife throwing because character in story I'm working on is into knife.throwing and I need to learn myself so as to be able to write about what this character does. I like this instructor's methods.
Thanks so much! 🙂
Lol i bet ure novel sucks ass
This is the best tutorial I have found yet. I don’t care if your not the best thrower but you are definitely an expert teacher. Thanks for sharing
I appreciate you greatly my friend. I’m glad to be of service.🙂👍
You’re a really great, thorough teacher. Thank you for taking the time. I picked up knife throwing to blow off steam, funnel it into something really controlled but powerful (the thud!) but I’m fully new to it and appreciate people who took the time on UA-cam to help people like me.
Thank you! It’s my pleasure, my friend
Excellent tutorial. I’m at the stage of my knife throwing hobby to fully appreciate the talent it takes to get really good. Even if I don’t get very good, still a great pastime and helps me unwind after a long day.
Thanks my friend and we’ll said!
I am a beginner at knife throwing and post a few video's inviting people to watch as I learn. Watch as I struggle and watch as on occasion, I make a few fantastic throws. I am always confident that I will work through my struggles and relate how life is full of struggles which we have to work through. Anyway, thanks for the precautions about injuries, because I have already experienced mine. My throw hit another knife and came back at me with what seemed like more force than I had thrown it with. It caught me right in the side of the knee as I tried to turn to avoid it. Fortunately it was not super sharp, but still penetrated a good quarter of an inch. Still a bit sore, but on the mend.
Sorry to hear, my friend! I have noticed that the potential for injury reduces with time and increased skillset. It usually happens when we overcommit and are up close
Lol
Nice , thank you 😊 i did one on my action videos with samurai sword ❤
Glad I found this channel, so much other ramblings on other ones this guy is genuine too, people like this deserve some kick backs for his content, so many others just doing it for money exclusivity, thanks brother, we are gonna need all the help we can get soon
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching 🙂
I remember you saying this was the longest UA-cam that you’ve ever uploaded and I must say man for you know being I guess knew it. I don’t know your exact experience, but you are very talented teacher. I used to work for the national outdoor leadership school.
I’m finishing my comment here. You should be a teacher. If you’re not already you are very, very, very good communicator. You never say like you never pause for too long Anyways man I appreciate you and the information you conveyed

Last thing …..that no spin throw sort of reminds me of a knuckle ball that some good pitchers will throw.
Hey everyone! I have some other tutorials such Military Half Spin and Hammer Grip no spin tutorials
It was helpful, I can't wait to start throwing knives using the different techniques you showed me, thank you
Awesome brother, I like the recommendations, excellent tutorial. 👍
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks so much 🙂
I love your videos! Such good info and explaining! Thank you!
Man, you have the best energy.
Thanks my friend 🙂
No spin is safer, cooler and more versatile👍 i started off doing halfspin and thinkin how close and hard i was throwing gives me the heebiegeebies. Always expect the target to strike back.
Just posted this on Amazon. Thanks for the tutorial and the knife recommendation.
I bought this knife on the recommendation of a guy named Daniel….411 Outdoors LLC on You Tube. His tutorials are great, no loud music, good quality video, and no ego garbage, just good solid tutorials. In a beginner throwing tutorial he mentioned the Cold Steel Tru Flight Thrower. I bought one and am very satisfied. I’ve been throwing a little lighter knife….Sog, which I’m also pleased with, but this is longer, heavier, and thicker. I’ve only thrown it full spin, but from the start I was impressed by how it threw. Solid sticks! It split the 2x12 pine board I’ve been throwing at in half on my 6th throw.
Thank you so much, my friend🙂
Your ease of tone & knowledge blends well together. Definitely keeps me watching your helpful videos to learn.. My grown sons have been wanting to get something set up at my parents house for them to do while there. Nothing like going from horseshoes to throwing sharp knives lol.. I learned many years ago not to play with them & think I'd win, but that's not to say I didn't keep up with them & hold my own at least. I'm not to bad off from where my expectations after weighing in my inconveniences of my limbs inabilities at times.. The joys of for having primary progressive multiple sclerosis is having to retrain yourself your new functional abilities because you refuse to be unable.. so I am glad to have come across your video. I'm always done to learning specially when it involves my 4 sons safety, enjoyment, memories made & to be honest them shit talking their way to a win. Lol
Appreciate you sharing! I’m glad you’re throwing! Let me know if you need any more tips
I've been carrying a file for the Smith& Wesson...forr those metal shards.
My true flights arrive tomorrow!
I just started sticking those hammer grip no spin tou teach. Thank you!
Right on! 🙂👍
Excellent video. I'll be watching it several times.
Nice video, i am new into this. I like how you explain. Thank you!
Super informative stuff, thanks.
Hey another great video! i will get in to this sport!
Thanks! It’s really great🙂👍
Outstanding, thank you for making this!
Most welcome my friend 🙂👊
@@411Outdoors I just ordered the True Flight.
Awesome video! Thanks much!
My pleasure!
Appriciate you taking the time to make this video. As I'm just getting into it. I decided to really getting into it by watching full tang clan. One of those you mentioned. The fellow I'm watching is super helpfull. As was your video here.
I also wanted to ask you about your intro.. I saw you using a sling. THATS a skill I DEFINATLY believe is important for what I'm into. Where As I look at knife throwing as a fun hobby....
I do a lot of bushcraft/minimalist camping. And learn what I can about wilderness survival. And I believe a sling could make a great improvised weapon for small game hunting. I'm going to now search your channel and see if you put out any videos on it. But if you have not. I would REALLY love to see a video on getting into slinging rocks. The legal kind. 😜 thanks for reading.
Thank You Sir.
🙂🤝
Truly enjoy your videos
Appreciate you watching!🙂
Great teachen can't wait to get started
Awesome!
Excellent advice thank you.😃
Glad it was helpful!
Nice 👍
Great video
Thanks for the video bro 🙏
Wet welcome my friend 🙂
Good tutorial
Thanks! Was harder than I thought putting all that together haha
Your amazing man
Much appreciated 🙂👊
Great knowledge Daniel ❤🙏🎯🗡️🇨🇦
Thank you!
🤣🤣🤣 When I decided to look up knife throwing, I was thinking more in the dart size. Does the size & stature of a person make a difference in the size of the throwing knife? Reason I decided to lookup knife throwing is as a mental discipline exercise & physical stress relieving hobby. Excellent video, thank you.
Thank you so much! I like to throw knives that are about 8 ounces and up because it’s easier to control them🙂👍
Good to know
love the way you explain,so relaxing and feels like talking with a friend. Well,here a sub for you sir!
Thanks so much! Glad to be of assistance
Thank you for sharing your technique for a beginner myself at 63 and the small axe it’s a fun thing to do to stay active in backyard, I ordered two sets of spikes ❤ good to know how it works from certain distance.
Glad to be a help my friend 🙂👍
Good info there bro
Great to know! Thanks my friend
I want to live a like but that 300 it's looking so good 😉THIS IS SPAAAAAAARTAAAA!!!!!!!
thank You
🙂👍👊

the bad throw recoil ain.t no joke. be rdy to jump on your half throws.
hit = math. distance to target, arm length, blade length. tweaking any of those is pro-level (if u can tweak your arm length, i.m impressed)
consistency. throw the exact same way every time. adjust your distance by even an inch after a miss. pay attention to the blade. did it stick handle up? inch frwd. down? back an inch.
i use heavy blades, not that long thing he.s throwing. I like blunt edges because i.m holding the blade half the time and rely on kinetic energy for penetration.
i manage abt 99% @ 2' from the handle. abt 95% @ 3.5' frm the blade. about 80% @ 7' frm the handle. abt 50% @ 10' frm the blade.
i.ve thrown dozens of thousands of times. good blades balanced for throwing.
it.s fun and frustrating....lol. it is NOT for self defense. I read gil hibben.s book early on and he said 'if I was in a self defense situation and had 2 throwing knives, i MIGHT throw one of them'
Good tutorial , thanks. How do you do it from a wheelchair?
You could actually do a good rotational throw sitting down usually 10 feet. May have to lean in slightly. Just make a smooth cut downnward and let go
@@411Outdoors thanks
You may also refer to Adam Celadins channel his videos are also excellent to start and to learn knife throwing. In one particular video Adam is showing how to throw from different positions, even from sitting on the floor. And he is a real professional showing how to throw with most of knife types available on the market or even making your own throwing tools just by buying a 300 mm construction nail and making a grip using tape.
One comment to adhere to is to only throw one way until you become proficient at that way...then try another way...if you mix styles you will have difficulty in mastering any...
Very true
I was just telling myself that this is my first time watching videos like this
❤❤❤❤❤❤yb f zs😅😊@@411Outdoors
Great lesson! If you haven't already get yourself a Glock field knife. The thing throws like a baseball
Oh snap! I gotta see that. Thanks!
@@411OutdoorsI've treated mine terribly, really really bad, and it's still going. I've heard its designed to throw. Just pulled the old girl out after 3 years and stuck the 1st 5 nospin! She just likes to fly
@@kencoffman7145 I love a throwing knife that has a handle that doesn’t break
@@411Outdoors even though it's an attached handle its solid. The only thing that has happened is that the hilt has a bit of shake. Brother, this was my first-ish thrower, it's still slapping handle hit and holding strong. I like it more than the CS true flight thrower because Glock infused their magic in it. It just works
Great series. Thank you. I’m not that good (yet) and didn’t know which end to hold it at first.
Started with the sharp end but when I changed to the handle I noticed that I got more power in the throw.
By the way, I didn’t know which distance to start from so I started from like 8-10 meters and it went well. But when I saw your video I probably should start at a 2-3 meters for the best result?
That distance will allow you to develop some half spin and some up close no spin🙂👍
Hi! I'm a fiction writer, writing a particular scene, and I had a question I can't seem to find the answer to. I've never thrown knives (on the bucket list). Maybe this is a silly question, but, how do you aim? When you're aiming the knife, does the knife go to where you're eyes are looking, or is more where your hand aims? Is it possible to aim too high, or too far to the left, and how would you fix that? Just trying to write as accurately as possible! Thanks in advance
In all honesty, I really do believe aiming is instinctive because for those who throw instinctively as I, they wouldn’t have time to aim really. The best advice I give people is you must really see your target. Aim small miss small. But in this case, see small miss small. If I’m aiming for the middle of the target, a look at the very center of it and nothing else.
This channel is cool! Got yourself a new subscriber. =)
Awesome! Thanks my friend. Glad to have you as a subscriber!
I realize I'm asking about "Hollywood" special effects, but in the Expendables films, the type of knives Jason Statham uses are similar to the smaller, lightweight knife you showed, while other actors in the series seem to use the medium size you recommended.
Any thoughts on the types of knives, throwing techniques, and/or realism of the Expendables presentation of throwing?
Great question! I find the Expendables (at least parts of it) somewhat unrealistic with the Kunai blades though I love the film. Kunai don’t throw to well in my opinion. Light knives would struggle piercing the human body through gear. Neck shots would still be effective even with a lighter knife.
Id just like to point out that knife throwing is a pure sport, it has nothing to do with survivalist tactics.. only way you can use a throwing blade as a survivalist is to find a handle and make spear out of it, those blade designs are perfect for it. why it is not survivalist tactic- you just dont want to throw away your weapon, miss and lose it, you would like to hang on your weapon and make maximum use out of it
I most definitely agree that knife throwing should not be a first level go to, but myself and a lot of other combat knife thrower’s like Jason Johnson aka Pro Knife Thrower and Matei Florin who train for combat throwing understand the various ways it be effective. I enjoy it for recreation, but it’s a combative skillset that creates a lot of martial faculties in a person. I have done penetration test that reveal the danger of a knife throw when it’s done with a good combat knife and instinctively.
Hey can you do this with a single edged non throwing knife?
Anything with adequate weight and a point works my friend
everyone has their own way to throw. I keep trying and I have better days every now and then but honestly Im probably sticking about 25% to a third of my throws. Some days I get so discouraged. Other day Ill stick 5 out of 8 throws. It shows I dont know shit about what im doing. maybe my arm just dont throw good
ഗുഡ് broter
What about while moving or unknown distance ... in a situation of self defense like a back ally somewhere...is there a way to train outside of having to be a certain distance... so it would be effective like on a navy seal mission or ninja back in the day .. target throwing is cool but in the end the most important thing is can i defend myself consistently and confidently in combat ... im 100 %new to this im trying find good info on how to start...
I did a tutorial on Hammer grip, no spin which is a combat style of throwing. It’s very instinctive
@@411Outdoors im watching it now lol thanks man!!
Hey y’all
Dang right buddy Southern Va all American here haha
@@411Outdoors hahaaa Awesome ‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥errrr
#1 don't throw at trees.
#2 stop when you are tired.
I got a nasty puncture wound on my left thigh from not listening to my 2 rules.
@@tonyfourpaws4511 I especially relate to stopping when tired for sure! It all falls apart
@@411Outdoors thanks for responding dude!! I thought all my comments were getting shadow banned. but yes, you always feel like you should throw "1 more time" I've learned to not do that and to walk away. btw, I found you when looking up the Tom brown tracker. I was gifted a knockoff version and it's still a solid thrower with a satisfying hit register. thanks for the great content sir!
He actually starts showing how to throw a knife about 5 minutes in.
Before that is a Novel length of explanation.
What can I say, I like to talk to and connect with my audience. There’s plenty of UA-camrs who just perform perform exactly like everyone wants. They may be better for you. Personally I believe there is more to presentation that just performance. If I explain something there’s usually a pretty good reason. You may not know this but the knife throwing community is full of gatekeepers and can be pretty cut throat. I was new to the scene when I made this.
What is the name of the knife...
True flight thrower from Cold Steel
gggg
I’m not sure I understand the comment
You should add time stamps or just say - start at 5:00. Everything before was obnoxious. The rest was good.
I’m glad you liked the tutorial aspect. As a Content creator, I can’t just simply get on here and perform things. I communicate with my audience with regards to context and that’s how I built my channel. At the time that I found this, there was a ton of gatekeeping going on in the knife throwing world. Now I don’t give a crap about the gatekeepers and my tutorials would look a lot different. And in the future I’m going to offer even more in-depth tutorials for my members online. I’m way further down the line than I was here.
@@411Outdoors no audience enjoys rambling blah blah blah say nothing. You’ll have a better relationship if you respect their time. But hey…. I’m just the customer… what do I know.
Dide . You talk way to much. Just get to the point . Smmfh
Man, I usually don’t entertain comments like this but I’m going to this time. Why do people like you always have to come and spew your anger and attitude on somebody’s content??I’ve had lots of people say this was very helpful to them and that’s all that matters to me. If you’re just looking for a demonstration, watch someone else. In a tutorial, you have to teach and teachings requires talking and theory. You’re not going to learn knife throwing as easy as you think. There are so many guys out there like yourself who are offended at talking and I just don’t get it. Angry people are always on UA-cam projecting on others. David Goggins said it best “you’ll never find a hater who is doing better than you”. Keep shaking your head because i going to keep talking. Have a nice day
Alright! You never fail delivering the goods Brother! Great video and thank you. 🪓⚔💀⚔🪓
I appreciate you watching my friend! Glad you enjoyed🙂
