I personally wouldn't mind if my neighbour was doing this or even shooting. All I'd ask is please hang a sign over the fence so I know you're doing it just in case I or the kids need to go outside. Just common courtesy.
Well it is general talk that does not apply to everyone. For example when girls say men always want you know what or other insulting things. The problem is people generalize to much.
Not me. The thought of a burglar catching a well thrown blade in the chest whilst slithering through a window is.. Well, it would just be awesome, that's all 😏
INSPIRATIONAL! It's really awsome that you linked the specific knifes you are using. Especially since I like those more than the ones that I have seen before. Thanks for making this video.
Thanks, my husband just brought me a set home, literally 15 minutes ago! Ive had a little throw in the garden, came in to find some tutorials and here I am :)
The first butter knife I used broke instantly XD. I just sat down, and laughed about it for a few minutes. Make sure your butter knives are NOT cast because they tend to shatter more. (This is only from personal experience).
Great video as always. I really liked the camera shot at the end of the video around 5:56 from behind your throwing arm. I thought it showed your arm movement, release, and follow through better for a beginner like me. Plus it was awesome watching the knife fly to the target. No spin has always been difficult for me this video will be a great help. Thanks.
+RobinHood9124 Why thank you! I asked my husband to get that angle for me because I always see it in Adam Celadin's videos. Turns out, that camera has to be right at your back to get it, to the point where I thought I'd hit the lens at first. You should check out Adam Celadin's channel for more visual reference. Thanks, Robinhood! I'll try to get that angle more often!
Hi Xolette! I am brand new to the knife throwing community. Just got my first set as a Christmas present from my son! I have always loved blades of all types and dreamed about learning how to dance with a sword and throw knives, but felt like people would think that was a strange thing for a woman to do (especially a mom) so I kept my desire a secret shared with only a select few. This is my decade for following my dreams though, I’m currently in my 3rd semester of nursing school, which, at 46, is more than 20 yrs of kids/wife/working for a paycheck in the making. Finally following my heart, and being successful in this journey has inspired me to pursue the other interests I have had all of my life. I am very happy to have stumbled upon your UA-cam channel. This was the 5th video I watched on beginner throwing, but the first one with a female and the only one I felt truly captured the same spirit I have about throwing knives. I look forward to watching the rest of your videos. Thank you so much for taking the stigma out of female knife throwing. One question: In your interview with Thronin, you mentioned that you don’t care much for 4 to 6 inch throwing knives (my gifted set falls in that range and to me they are tiny beautiful ladies); could you please provide some of your expert insight behind your statement, as I am a complete novice. Much appreciation and stick wishes! Jennifer
What a great gift from your son! I'm glad you're taking up knife throwing. Make sure to check out the Bladed Broad and Adam Celadin; they are great UA-camr knife throwers. To answer your question it may help to check out my best beginner throwing knives video and to read the description as I go over specific measurements on what I consider a good throwing knife. Small throwing knives that are too light have a tendency to ricochet too fast, plus you have to stand pretty close to the target in order to hit it. Overall, they're a bit more dangerous to throw which is why a longer knife that's heavier is better plus you have more range; you can stand farther away and get a stick. Hope that helps! There are Facebook knife throwing groups as well. I have a video on it. And the bladed broad also has a knife throwing page. Thank you for sharing your story!
Xolette Thanks for your reply. I have added all of the people you mentioned in your interview to my subscription list and watched your knife review video which was very informative. I learned quickly by watching you and the others that aesthetics is not something I should hang on to for learning, guess these will just be part of my “pretty collection” haha. Thanks again!
The benefit is it's less distance dependent. Spin throwing you have to be at certain distances to hit point first. With no spin you hit point first at any distance.
with spin throwing the knife can end up side ways on a target its not realistic in battle scenarios but with a spin free trow the point always lands first
I have to watch your videos at least twice....once just to get past (I never really succeed) how cute your are and a few more times to hone in on those techniques. Love your vids...you've got me over my "no spin" hurdle!!
Cool video. I'm currently working on Lester Flor's method for No-Spin, but I'm gaining so much from the community, including you. It's good to practice different disciplines. You get more acquainted with the blades.
I'm new to knife throwing and I've been watching your videos for instructions(thank you for them all). You are amazing! I love your knife holster, where can I find one like it???
Why thank you! It's from bentleysheaths.com. He made it out of carbon fiber kydex. I also have some videos of it-- just do a search for "knife quiver".
cool instructional. From a range of about 5 meters I once threw a knife toward a target off center and it reversed direction mid flight by wrapping around a 2 ft grass shoot and planted into the target. It looked like special effects. It was a screaming arrow throwing knife.
Thank you SO much for the wheelchair video. Now if I can figure out how to make my THUNDER BOLT throwing knives stick in my target, rather than my LEG. It's difficult to dodge a bounce back. Thanks again. And you're GORGEOUS. Your boyfriend is a lucky man, and now, I'm looking for your single TWIN, lol.
A really sound practise structure here Colette and I am glad the golf tees are proving useful as an accuracy prompt. Looking forward to the burpee video next :)
+Andy Fisher Thanks, Andy! It's coming soon! I finally got to listen to Episode 4 of the Podcast with Edwardes? Your parkour friend. And I loved all the neuroscience talk. I used to teach my kids a little neuroscience. One really cool experiment deals with making what you would call "drunk goggles"-- just goggles that that skew your vision to the left. And then you have a kid throw balls into a basket, using the goggles. And you'll find at first they miss, always aiming to the left of the basket, but then they get used to their skewed vision, and begin making shots. Once they do that, you remove the goggles, and you find even without the impaired vision, they will consistently miss the basket because their brains had quickly made neural connections for this new skill. But then of course, those connections are lost immediately (though if a kid wore the goggles for long periods of time, it could seriously permanently mess up their vision!) Anyway, really cool experiment. Would love to make a video for it on my science channel! Anyways, totally off topic, but wanted to share that I've been enjoying the podcast!
+campfiretrickery Long ago, I threw the shovel... it's pretty much the same as throwing anything else. :) Just have to understand how the knife rotates. :) I was thinking of throwing my machete... but it'd have to be for something special, because that thing is big and sharp!
This is my first time viewing your channel. Great vid. I throw the SOG Fling with a spin. I'm excited to try the no spin method now that you've provided some guidelines. Thank you and keep it up.
Haha, this backyard is nothing compared to the yard I had the year prior in Florida. That yard was a jungle and as about as big as the small dog park I used to go to in California!
Have ever thought about placing balloons all around the area and standing in the center to practice accuracy? Like maybe two or three water balloons filled with air on each Target with about 16 targets all around might be a great way to increase skill set.
I think you're gorgeous and you're definitely on to something.. what was it? 9000 hrs or 900 of doing the same thing and you become a master at it? either wicked cute and girl power
+Xolette repetition yes! but forreal I read it somewhere here it is just Googled it It takes anywhere from 6-10 years toget great at something, depending on how often and how much you do it. Some estimate that it takes 10,000 hours to master something, but I think it varies from person to person and depends on the skill and other factors
Sorry for my many questions. I'm curious about your throwing styles. Some are over hand and some you through like a baseball. I had a bad day today😩, had more failures than successes. Anyway my main question is this baseball style throwing of yours the best technique for what? Spin, 2/4 spin, no spin. And as a beginner what style should I be concentrating on?
+Paul G I suggest you watch these two videos: ua-cam.com/video/a-9cKkb5PTQ/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/bDgjDdS6OTA/v-deo.html I made this for my friend so it goes over the difference between spin and no spin and how to throw spikes, which is pretty much how you'd throw a knife. Good luck!
I could see someone calling the police, but I've never actually heard of throwing knives being against the law. Where do you live that it's such a problem they made a law against it?
DarkHero420 The stupidest country of them all: The Netherlands. We're not allowed to own weapons, and if I were to beat up a burglar, they could sue me
Thank you! Check out the Bladed Broad too. She even has a video showing other females knife throwing in a compilation video called "Sisters of the blade".
I am much, much older than you and have been throwing knives since I was 8 years old. If you want to become accurate with just about ANY knife you will need to learn how to throw holding the blade always. This is the only truly reliable way to throw a knife with any kind of consistency and accuracy. I like that you are throwing what I would consider specialty knives because you can get consistency down faster. When you can grab any knife and just by feeling the weight of the knife know instinctively how you must throw the knife and hit your target you will be pretty good. By the way here is a tip. Buy yourself some military surplus bayonets or some good Bowie knives. Nothing like the real thing to learn with.
TBull Cajunbreadmaker i’m no expert and I wouldn’t even consider myself an novice but throwing a B in it like the M7 or most pain that’s with just nearly been possible I would think, I Did a whole review on the M7 and I can’t imagine throwing it
NO SPIN очень надежная техника для метания по подвижной мишени...)))) в отличии от других техник. В наших соревнованиях по подвижной мишени выигрывал только NO SPIN...)))
You should practice with human figure cut-outs, and definately work more on your form. From what I saw you would never hit a moving person, especially with that lack luster force behing your throws. Just my harsh critique of the video. Do what you want..
I don't throw knives to help me throw knives at people, which I think is a poor weapon of choice for self defense. Just like some people shoot arrows or throw darts at a target, I throw knives for the same reason.
Xolette Fair enough, I just feel you never know what positions you may find yourself in. Maybe all you have around is a knife and an attacker is after you but isnt aware to your location, if you were good at throwing knifes then bam, problem solved. Nonetheless I understand its fun, and like I said, do what you want. Just my thoughts on your video that I stumbled upon. If anything you throw better than most people I know.
Isa Cook Throwing a knife at a person, even from a hidden position, would be a terrible idea. The chance it would incapacitate is very small and more likely then not you'd be in a lot more trouble than if you'd stayed out of sight. Throwing the knife is never, ever a good idea and is only for recreational purposes.
Kraakesolv Not true.. I can think of instances where I could throw a knife at a person. And it would function in a normal way, if you know how to throw a knife..
+Scott M Some people click on my videos because they think I'm supposed to impress them. This was meant to be an informative video, not a "I'm the best" video. Thanks for sticking up for me. :D
Xolette I don't get why people do that, like they gotta share some crappy thought, often even mixing it in with a compliment lol. It's like seeing some videos that are perfect, in *every* possible way, but then it gets these inevitable dislikes. My theory is that there are these "people" who see a thumbnail of interest, click on it, *IMMEDIATELY* thumb it down out of some miserable compulsion.. and THEN, watch it 😅 Personally, when I throw things at the camp site, like a Glock 78 or a Cold Steel shovel, I'm happy enough just to keep from missing the tree altogether lol. Great vid, awesome skills, very informative and thanks for taking the time to share :) 👍
Pedrinsky Nandeiz Oh simmer down, what is she supposed to know your elaborated thoughts through osmosis? lol. Even still, it doesn't hold water, but whatever. Anyway, when's your upload of "surgical precision" coming there, *ACE*? 😂
It wasn't even that harsh of a comment. Just blunt criticism. And the comment section is do just that... comment. No need to unpack the whiteknight armor, though it did get you a response from the uploader. If that was your aim, then well played.

Cool video ! I allways finish my practices with a good serie too (as many thowers i think) !
+Abeille métallique Yeah! That's what I hear from the other throwers as well. :) It would horrible to leave your range on a bad round I suppose! Thanks, Guillaume!
Excellent video! I love your practice method. It's very similar to what I do! I actually thought about doing a video just like this with my no spin drills. You beat me t it! Loved it and it's got some excellent tip (as usual!). And "are you still talking?!" Lol. Hilarious!
+Kimberly Mitchell You should post it still! Don't let my video hold you back. :) I think it'd be interesting to see how you set up your targets. And I'm sure there's something different that you do. You could even mention some of the inspiring videos we've seen (I didn't mention that) and how that might shape your practice. I know it does with mine! I always have images of Tom Tom or Scott Thomas or RC or Adam floating around in my head-- and of course you with that beautiful backwards throw! :)
My dear Ms. Xollete, My question to you is : where did you get , or who made your side case for you ? I'm now trying to make some sheaths for my blades , but trying to make a sheath to keep more than one blade is a bit more then anticipated- leather is tricky.
XoletteLife Thanks, if my attempt at making my own sheaths- I now know where I can get one to hold more than I can hold in my hand.I'll try and send you some pics of the end results. Again, thanks!
I don't know why I was clapping like you could hear me. great work. I have an entry level sog set that I want to learn on. do you suggest to slightly add an edge to the blades?
That was awesome throwing..thanks for always adding some tips and tricks....Just out of curiosity (If anybody knows) how far can the average experienced knife thrower throw a knife at a person where it would cause enough damage to slow or stop a person from attacking you? Movies always show people throwing a knife from a really far distance and taking a person out completely....I just wanted to know from a defensive prospective and how realistic it would be...I'm just starting out so i'm interested in knowing what could be expected....
+iconforu2c Check out ZombieGoBoom's video: ua-cam.com/video/YcXxHBTW0ng/v-deo.html RC or TheCombat KnifeThrower's channel has a lot of these type of tests. Good luck!
hi my name is Matthew Saunders I have some questions for you . what is some of the best throwing knives that I can buy? how do you make your throwing knife target? I like how you throw your knifes.
You have to get the full spin throw down up close to the target , I've been using the fardin technique ur talking about without even knowing , nice no spin throwing!
Wonderful video, what do you use for your back stop? I have always used log end grain, what is yours made of? just found you today and subscribed... thanks
Can you check out our channel its not much just having fun, but would love to be as good as you. ua-cam.com/video/bcqYqppmLBI/v-deo.html Love, Iniki Blades
Awesome. Where did you get those knifes and how much did they cost? At least how old do I have to buy throwing knifes? How much time do I need to learn throwing knifes?
Links to the knives are the description of the video. I don't know if there's an age limit to buy knives-- but most likely you'd have to order them online and ask your parents for permission to use a credit card. You can learn to throw pretty quickly. Check out my video, "Teaching my Parents How to Throw Knives."
The end grain target - are the 4x slices just glued to a backer board or are there fasteners involved? And is there glue between the slices? I'm contemplating making them to sell. Also, I wouldn't mind one for myself, as I'm currently using a piece of plywood and we all know how great plywood is for sticking 😒
There's a playlist on this channel that shows how I made the end grain target. I have used wood glue but you can simply pressure fit everything together and have a backboard. Just be sure to read the descriptions and watch the videos to get those tips
Loves the Videos. I do struggle with the no spin throws, I was wondering if it requires a more of a spike type of thrower to make this happen? A little of subject, but Do you throw both lefty and right?
Just stopping by to show some love. Im new to the sport and happy I found your page. Your engery is truly amazing. Great job! One question.. What brand and model knife would you recommend for no spin?' I was thinking the arrows that you were throwing.
+ILL ORBIT I don't throw the Arrows in this video, but I do recommend them. For no spin, I prefer, long slim knives. The Arrows are great (models sold by Werner Lengmuller, Flying Steel and Sharp Blades), as well as Flying Steel's North Winds and East Winds, Sharp Blades' White Sharks, and Crescent Knife Works' SlimJims, and Libra's DS.X's. I know that's a lot, but those are my go-to's!
Appreciate your soonest reply... So what suits me more is the Thorn System 'coz it is easier to order the videos & download the pdf book for free... The Fedin System is so hard to come-by & I have been trying for 4-years already to order an instructional vid of The Fedin System when I can't read the Russian Letters in the Homepage to order the videos... But I would appreciate it if you could share me a link and help me order The Fedin System...
There's a playlist on my channel called "Best Fedin Tutorials"-- I'd check out those videos. Samoth Chipmah has some of the best tutorials in English. I'm not sure how to order the DVD, but perhaps you can ask Samoth Chipmah or send a message/comment on Fedin's channel (which by the way, he passed away a little while ago, so I'm not sure if his channel is still active). His daughter, Olga, has a channel though... but I'm not sure if she speaks a lot of English. Good luck!
Finally - Iv'e been waiting for this...That's Awesome! I will surely check these links out... RIP to master Yuri Fedin (sad loss)... Salamat ng Marami & Mabuhay! (Thanks so Much & Long-Live in Filipino)
Thank you very much I have actually watch this a few times already😄😄. Very helpful and I have been practising a lot. Please keep them coming any videos that you think will help me I saw one of your videos that you said you were from the Philippines obviously American though. My fiancé is also Asian I call her "the boss" I wonder why that is why I prefer you to train me because I have been trained to listen to my fiancé hshahaha😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I wonder if the neighbors ever found a random knife in their yards...
No, they have not. My target is in a location far enough to have that happen.
Sean Harris Hehe, I always wondered if my friends neighbor from 20 years ago ever found an arrow in their yard. I know I couldn't find it!
Xolette try tomahawks.
Sean Harris Me too it is a miracle no blowgun dart has hit any one outside my back yard 30 years ago.
I personally wouldn't mind if my neighbour was doing this or even shooting. All I'd ask is please hang a sign over the fence so I know you're doing it just in case I or the kids need to go outside. Just common courtesy.

@Tony chatwin ME TOO. // We could start a compost pile. LOL /"Clean up" the neighborhood and have great veg as well. Win, win. ;)
Very nicely done. I like your style. Easy-going humble and quite talented. Keep up the good work.
What is the benefit of no spin throwing? it seems like there is less force behind the throw.
So it does just come down to easier to throw? Less to think about. Trading power or force for faster reaction.
less force but more close range accuracy, point only has to go in 2" to be fatal afterall
The benefit is it's less distance dependent. Spin throwing you have to be at certain distances to hit point first. With no spin you hit point first at any distance.
with spin throwing the knife can end up side ways on a target its not realistic in battle scenarios but with a spin free trow the point always lands first
Throwing a knife, period, isnt effective in battle scenarios.
Love your patience, and dedication, cool tutorial !!!
The lady is trying to share the sport of knife throwing. It's amazing to see how a simple sports video is misconstrued.
Really great info. Just started my knife throwing journey today. Excited to learn more!
I tried so hard not to laugh at flat bastard I failed
I like how you’re very deep about your details on what type of knives you use.
I’m going to build a target like you’ve got!
I like the Dexter bag of knives.
I have to watch your videos at least twice....once just to get past (I never really succeed) how cute your are and a few more times to hone in on those techniques. Love your vids...you've got me over my "no spin" hurdle!!

Sean Harrison it's not that hard I can do it when I was 12 ps I just turned 13 so 😂 or is it because in Filipino
i throw darts so hard though (im a filipino) like i throw darts at blackboards and the darts can go in it with a 0.4 inch puncture or whatever lol

nice job . hey have you ever tried throwing machete's or the coldsteel shovels or somthen like that could be interesting .
+campfiretrickery Long ago, I threw the shovel... it's pretty much the same as throwing anything else. :) Just have to understand how the knife rotates. :) I was thinking of throwing my machete... but it'd have to be for something special, because that thing is big and sharp!
This is my first time viewing your channel. Great vid. I throw the SOG Fling with a spin. I'm excited to try the no spin method now that you've provided some guidelines. Thank you and keep it up.
Aw, thanks!!
She is mighty cute, but Ive had enough women throw stuff at me to worry about one with that kind of accuracy.
My mom used slippers
Yooo for real!! Haha
Now that's funny shit
i was sincerely attracted by the "no spin" of the video.
I was going to laugh at you for using such a dinky little hammer. But then I saw you throwing knives..
It's always great how positive and encouraging in your videos! Great video!
+Alex Becker Thank you, Alex! Always good to hear from you!
I can't wait for my batwings to come😄
Batarangs?
Awesome video, makes me want to learn the art, I was so scared I was going to hear a yelp from the dog that was previously behind the target....lol
You sure have a big backyard !
Haha, this backyard is nothing compared to the yard I had the year prior in Florida. That yard was a jungle and as about as big as the small dog park I used to go to in California!
Big? This is minuscule compared to mine, and mine is small compared my friends backyard lmao
Have ever thought about placing balloons all around the area and standing in the center to practice accuracy? Like maybe two or three water balloons filled with air on each Target with about 16 targets all around might be a great way to increase skill set.
Poor doggy .. don't let him run around when you train
Great job. You are awesome and I hope more girls start doing it. I wish my daughter's had. keep up the good job
I think you're gorgeous and you're definitely on to something.. what was it? 9000 hrs or 900 of doing the same thing and you become a master at it? either wicked cute and girl power
Thanks! I'm sure the number is irrelevant--as the quality of the practice is what counts, I believe!
+Xolette repetition yes! but forreal I read it somewhere
here it is just Googled it
It takes anywhere from 6-10 years toget great at something, depending on how often and how much you do it. Some estimate that it takes 10,000 hours to master something, but I think it varies from person to person and depends on the skill and other factors
+Ryan Leslie I was close... We're nothing more than human... now get to throwing! haha
this technique is good for archery as well .end practice on a good note .very good vid.
long way to go before you're on itachi's level
Sorry for my many questions. I'm curious about your throwing styles. Some are over hand and some you through like a baseball. I had a bad day today😩, had more failures than successes. Anyway my main question is this baseball style throwing of yours the best technique for what? Spin, 2/4 spin, no spin. And as a beginner what style should I be concentrating on?
+Paul G I suggest you watch these two videos: ua-cam.com/video/a-9cKkb5PTQ/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/bDgjDdS6OTA/v-deo.html I made this for my friend so it goes over the difference between spin and no spin and how to throw spikes, which is pretty much how you'd throw a knife. Good luck!
I love you long time xolette
Awesome stuff !!! Me just started out knife throwing and love it . thank you for sharing .
I'm first I'm never so early
+Olly Barker Congrats! :)
Very cool. Gotta respect a woman who isn't going to be messed with.. Keep practicing and show us your progress! Be careful...
I...can't believe no one has called the police yet
For what?
Billy Calder For throwing knives maybe? I guess the law is different where she lives
I could see someone calling the police, but I've never actually heard of throwing knives being against the law. Where do you live that it's such a problem they made a law against it?
DarkHero420 The stupidest country of them all: The Netherlands. We're not allowed to own weapons, and if I were to beat up a burglar, they could sue me
Ouch, don't feel too bad, in USA you can get sued because someone got hurt robbing your house.
I was not aware of no spin knife throwing. I love your video. Can you do a slow motion of a couple of your throws? Thanks.
Whenever a chick does something with weapons, I'm 😍 lol
Subscribed because I don't really see many women into stuff like this, You're one of a kind xolette. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! Check out the Bladed Broad too. She even has a video showing other females knife throwing in a compilation video called "Sisters of the blade".
good thing she doesn't practice with the neighbors. ....yet
I am much, much older than you and have been throwing knives since I was 8 years old. If you want to become accurate with just about ANY knife you will need to learn how to throw holding the blade always. This is the only truly reliable way to throw a knife with any kind of consistency and accuracy. I like that you are throwing what I would consider specialty knives because you can get consistency down faster. When you can grab any knife and just by feeling the weight of the knife know instinctively how you must throw the knife and hit your target you will be pretty good. By the way here is a tip. Buy yourself some military surplus bayonets or some good Bowie knives. Nothing like the real thing to learn with.
TBull Cajunbreadmaker i’m no expert and I wouldn’t even consider myself an novice but throwing a B in it like the M7 or most pain that’s with just nearly been possible I would think, I Did a whole review on the M7 and I can’t imagine throwing it
NO SPIN очень надежная техника для метания по подвижной мишени...)))) в отличии от других техник. В наших соревнованиях по подвижной мишени выигрывал только NO SPIN...)))
hell, I can do it too AND better. here, hold my beer.
Tx for sharing Ms. Xolete,how do you swing for that knife throw??looks a spherical motion..
You should practice with human figure cut-outs, and definately work more on your form. From what I saw you would never hit a moving person, especially with that lack luster force behing your throws. Just my harsh critique of the video. Do what you want..
I don't throw knives to help me throw knives at people, which I think is a poor weapon of choice for self defense. Just like some people shoot arrows or throw darts at a target, I throw knives for the same reason.
Xolette Fair enough, I just feel you never know what positions you may find yourself in. Maybe all you have around is a knife and an attacker is after you but isnt aware to your location, if you were good at throwing knifes then bam, problem solved. Nonetheless I understand its fun, and like I said, do what you want. Just my thoughts on your video that I stumbled upon. If anything you throw better than most people I know.
Isa Cook Throwing a knife at a person, even from a hidden position, would be a terrible idea. The chance it would incapacitate is very small and more likely then not you'd be in a lot more trouble than if you'd stayed out of sight. Throwing the knife is never, ever a good idea and is only for recreational purposes.
Kraakesolv Not true.. I can think of instances where I could throw a knife at a person. And it would function in a normal way, if you know how to throw a knife..
no sorry, my bad..you can't aim right
Great smile, great attitude. keep practicing and you'll be a champion
Nice job! I bet she has really nice feet.
ËDØ TËNSËĪ You're going to talk yourself into an ass beating dude. There's nothing wrong with liking womens feet.
+ËDØ TËNSËĪ; Chill the fuck out.
+Amazing Fan Dude your late to be telling me to chill.
ËDØ TËNSËĪ It's a fetish. it's safe.
+j.d. Hogg the cringe running up my ass when is see weirdo-comments like foot lovers. Dude why? Why is there even this weird fetish
Showing the reality of practice, good, thank you. Mike
No problem! Thanks for watching!
mmmh.. not good trowing,, i hope u get much better.
what a dick you must be 😅
+Scott M Some people click on my videos because they think I'm supposed to impress them. This was meant to be an informative video, not a "I'm the best" video. Thanks for sticking up for me. :D
Xolette I don't get why people do that, like they gotta share some crappy thought, often even mixing it in with a compliment lol. It's like seeing some videos that are perfect, in *every* possible way, but then it gets these inevitable dislikes. My theory is that there are these "people" who see a thumbnail of interest, click on it, *IMMEDIATELY* thumb it down out of some miserable compulsion.. and THEN, watch it 😅
Personally, when I throw things at the camp site, like a Glock 78 or a Cold Steel shovel, I'm happy enough just to keep from missing the tree altogether lol. Great vid, awesome skills, very informative and thanks for taking the time to share :) 👍
Pedrinsky Nandeiz Oh simmer down, what is she supposed to know your elaborated thoughts through osmosis? lol. Even still, it doesn't hold water, but whatever.
Anyway, when's your upload of "surgical precision" coming there, *ACE*? 😂
It wasn't even that harsh of a comment. Just blunt criticism. And the comment section is do just that... comment. No need to unpack the whiteknight armor, though it did get you a response from the uploader. If that was your aim, then well played.
Cool video ! I allways finish my practices with a good serie too (as many thowers i think) !
+Abeille métallique Yeah! That's what I hear from the other throwers as well. :) It would horrible to leave your range on a bad round I suppose! Thanks, Guillaume!
Loving the perma-smile.
Excellent video! I love your practice method. It's very similar to what I do! I actually thought about doing a video just like this with my no spin drills. You beat me t it! Loved it and it's got some excellent tip (as usual!).
And "are you still talking?!" Lol. Hilarious!
+Kimberly Mitchell You should post it still! Don't let my video hold you back. :) I think it'd be interesting to see how you set up your targets. And I'm sure there's something different that you do. You could even mention some of the inspiring videos we've seen (I didn't mention that) and how that might shape your practice. I know it does with mine! I always have images of Tom Tom or Scott Thomas or RC or Adam floating around in my head-- and of course you with that beautiful backwards throw! :)
+Kimberly Mitchell Yeah, my husband has to mention every day that he flies in an airplane. I tend to tune it out. :P
My dear Ms. Xollete, My question to you is : where did you get , or who made your side case for you ? I'm now trying to make some sheaths for my blades , but trying to make a sheath to keep more than one blade is a bit more then anticipated- leather is tricky.
Andrew Beverly That answer is question #5 in the description of the video.
XoletteLife Thanks, if my attempt at making my own sheaths- I now know where I can get one to hold more than I can hold in my hand.I'll try and send you some pics of the end results. Again, thanks!
Andrew Beverly Sounds good. Glad it worked out!
used to have a lot of fun doing this, it is a sport, not an easy in either. Also it's great exercise!
I don't know why I was clapping like you could hear me. great work. I have an entry level sog set that I want to learn on. do you suggest to slightly add an edge to the blades?
That was awesome throwing..thanks for always adding some tips and tricks....Just out of curiosity (If anybody knows) how far can the average experienced knife thrower throw a knife at a person where it would cause enough damage to slow or stop a person from attacking you? Movies always show people throwing a knife from a really far distance and taking a person out completely....I just wanted to know from a defensive prospective and how realistic it would be...I'm just starting out so i'm interested in knowing what could be expected....
+iconforu2c Check out ZombieGoBoom's video: ua-cam.com/video/YcXxHBTW0ng/v-deo.html RC or TheCombat KnifeThrower's channel has a lot of these type of tests. Good luck!
hi my name is Matthew Saunders I have some questions for you . what is some of the best throwing knives that I can buy? how do you make your throwing knife target? I like how you throw your knifes.
This is a awesome video so far. I started and then stopped throwing. Trying to learn myself.
I'm going shopping for new knives.
You have to get the full spin throw down up close to the target , I've been using the fardin technique ur talking about without even knowing , nice no spin throwing!
Wonderful video, what do you use for your back stop? I have always used log end grain, what is yours made of? just found you today and subscribed... thanks
Other girls' bags: Let see. Makeup, phone, lip-balm, ...
Xolette's bag: 1:11
Thank you so much! My wife and I including my friend Ron love you and your channel so helpful!
Can you check out our channel its not much just having fun, but would love to be as good as you. ua-cam.com/video/bcqYqppmLBI/v-deo.html
Love,
Iniki Blades
Aw, thank you!
Excellent information about your technique, keep up the good work
Thank you!
Also your videos and knife collection is siiiick. Subbed! Good job!
wow..great to see your vidios again..I use to watch way back when you had a apartment..I just happen to see your still doing vidia
Just saw your channel for the first time and this is great! You just got a new subscriber! and Ima do this in my backyard now!
Awesome.
Where did you get those knifes and how much did they cost?
At least how old do I have to buy throwing knifes?
How much time do I need to learn throwing knifes?
Links to the knives are the description of the video. I don't know if there's an age limit to buy knives-- but most likely you'd have to order them online and ask your parents for permission to use a credit card. You can learn to throw pretty quickly. Check out my video, "Teaching my Parents How to Throw Knives."
you're right I just had to watch it over and over again for a minute thank you
The end grain target - are the 4x slices just glued to a backer board or are there fasteners involved? And is there glue between the slices? I'm contemplating making them to sell. Also, I wouldn't mind one for myself, as I'm currently using a piece of plywood and we all know how great plywood is for sticking 😒
There's a playlist on this channel that shows how I made the end grain target. I have used wood glue but you can simply pressure fit everything together and have a backboard. Just be sure to read the descriptions and watch the videos to get those tips
Loves the Videos. I do struggle with the no spin throws, I was wondering if it requires a more of a spike type of thrower to make this happen? A little of subject, but Do you throw both lefty and right?
Just getting started in Throwing. Thanks for the Channel!
That's great! Thank you!
Just stopping by to show some love. Im new to the sport and happy I found your page. Your engery is truly amazing. Great job! One question.. What brand and model knife would you recommend for no spin?' I was thinking the arrows that you were throwing.
+ILL ORBIT I don't throw the Arrows in this video, but I do recommend them. For no spin, I prefer, long slim knives. The Arrows are great (models sold by Werner Lengmuller, Flying Steel and Sharp Blades), as well as Flying Steel's North Winds and East Winds, Sharp Blades' White Sharks, and Crescent Knife Works' SlimJims, and Libra's DS.X's. I know that's a lot, but those are my go-to's!
Большое спасибо за ваш ролик от всех любителей NO SPIN из России!!! В любом случаи вы сделали большое дело для развития NO SPIN!
Thanks for this video Xolette... You've got one subscriber already... Ralph Thorn? Or Yuri Fedin? Which discipline would you think is better?
It's really whatever suits you! :) For me, I love how Fedin throws look and the whip motion/minimal movement!
Appreciate your soonest reply... So what suits me more is the Thorn System 'coz it is easier to order the videos & download the pdf book for free... The Fedin System is so hard to come-by & I have been trying for 4-years already to order an instructional vid of The Fedin System when I can't read the Russian Letters in the Homepage to order the videos... But I would appreciate it if you could share me a link and help me order The Fedin System...
There's a playlist on my channel called "Best Fedin Tutorials"-- I'd check out those videos. Samoth Chipmah has some of the best tutorials in English. I'm not sure how to order the DVD, but perhaps you can ask Samoth Chipmah or send a message/comment on Fedin's channel (which by the way, he passed away a little while ago, so I'm not sure if his channel is still active). His daughter, Olga, has a channel though... but I'm not sure if she speaks a lot of English. Good luck!
Finally - Iv'e been waiting for this...That's Awesome! I will surely check these links out... RIP to master Yuri Fedin (sad loss)... Salamat ng Marami & Mabuhay! (Thanks so Much & Long-Live in Filipino)
Walang anuman! Good luck with the technique!! :)
What is your favorite knife out of all of the knives you own
Thank you very much I have actually watch this a few times already😄😄. Very helpful and I have been practising a lot. Please keep them coming any videos that you think will help me I saw one of your videos that you said you were from the Philippines obviously American though. My fiancé is also Asian I call her "the boss" I wonder why that is why I prefer you to train me because I have been trained to listen to my fiancé hshahaha😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
+Paul G Haha!
