Can you use this weapon for throwing?

I personally would not use this for throwing due to its large size. It is incredibly durable and could take the abuse, but not sure how it would fly. Fyi I love this machete....had it for years

Yes, you can, however I really would not recommend it....like, don't do it! My husband got "ballooned" in the chest from 200 feet away and sported a large red welt from the shot. It packs quite a wallop, so if you are launching t-shirts into a crowd (like at a football game), someone could get seriously hurt... This blaster is quite strong!

For throwing I prefer you not use this one.This is because its single side blade which requires proper throwing technique so that you don't damage the bladeI suggest you get dual edged throwersBecause they really teach beginners the technique

I suppose you could if you want but it wouldn't work very well at all.If you're looking for a knife to throw without spin, I definitely wouldn't buy these.

Not really. Too light, if you want to throw it with force then the air is enough to cause them to not fly stably. Plus you see how in the picture the thickest point goes straight down the blade to the point? All 6 of mine are 1 - 4 mm off center, and from the middle cutout of the blade on one side it is 3.5mm to the blade edge and 4.5mm on the other side. You might be able to throw it no spin at like 10-15 feet into Styrofoam but throw it with any force and it's more up to the air lol.. With wind I'd have to see it in person if someone said they could throw it no spin into something from that distance.. Especially something hard. Not really.

It depends on your knife throwing experience. Mine is somewhat limited, but studying how experts throw technique wise shows that it does require altering how one throws from that of a traditional straight edged blade. It's more like a combination of throwing an ax and a Bowie. Throw-ability aside, it's a great knife, particularly for severing. As far as throwing goes, look up Michael Janich's videos on throwing knives, he's an authority on this stuff.

Yes, but the product isn't worth it. The blades will break on the first throw.

Projectile weapons typically are not efficient for killings zombies. Throwing knives would be better served as a tool or self defense against humanity's other faction that you'll ultimately have to fight. Likely they will capture you, and their Che Guevara look alike will make you play basketball while only have a couple hours left before a horrible poison destroys your body. Welcome to the human race.

No its not a throwing knife at all. Look for throwing knives on Amazon where they are made to throw. Do your homework on knives before u get them.

Yes, I have tried throwing it at my brother and it went into his shoulder through his Russell sweater. He is okay though, he wanted me to do it.

Probably if you laid it side ways . In any event, it is a beautiful kind if heavy throw. We loved it so much, we bought 2 of them.

You can use to reenactment, but it don't support a hard hit, if you'll use it to simulate a real combat, you can't use it. I use to play with my nephew.

If You Want More Of A Random Throw Of The ball, then yes it is useful. I don't use it often.

Any knife can be thrown, some better than others. This is not a full tang knife, but rather a "rat tail". Like the end of a file without a handle. A good design if metal is scarce or full tang is not needed. This type of knife was meant to be used as a stabbing weapon to find, penetrate and if needed, left behind in an armored soldier/knight. Because of the weakness of the handle this is not a good thrower. Without hours of practice you should not throw away your only tool/weapon.

Understanding that you will probably go through many tomahawks over the course of throwing them as a hobby, you could do worse than this one. I think it would hold up to quite a few throws, even the damage I did to mine wouldn't stop it from being a good beat around thrower. It will stick on either the blade or spike side (which is good for your self-esteem). The handle is a little long for throwing (in my opinion). I'm not sure which product on Amazon I would recommend to learn. Any of them that are heavy enough, will be just fine.

NO, This model is absolutely only for RH throwers. Please do not answer questions if you do not know. We are coming out with a LH version soon but this item and almost all boomerangs are not "reversible", and the ones which are almost definitely do not work as well as the ones which do not. This s a terrific boomerang but it is for right handed throwers only.

I have never tried. I really have not used it other than to play around with it. I am sorry.
