The Perfect Knives to Learn No-Spin Throwing?

[@AdamCeladin]

WOW Skall what a great Review !!! I was actually surprised How well you threw no spin Already! Dont worry about the distance at all, it took me months to get past 4 meters, important from the start is to be really consistent from 2 up to 4 meters and after very very small steps back :) Thank you very much for nice Video my Friend!

Haven't you heard about it ? The drawings are dope and plot's edgy AF. The story of a lumberjack thrown into another world. Since he learned about ninjustu on Wikipedia, he's able to cheat into a assassin guild's competitive entrance examination, he won thanks to his 21th century build far more developed than medieval peasants. From here starts his true training inside the guild where his master, a thousand years old loli vampire teaches him the way of nobility and stealth assassination. Eventually he grows so strong that he doesn't kill his victims, he just convince them to stop doing evil. Finally the true last boss, which happened to be the godfather of his master, the guild founder himself, shows up and the hero's forced to fight to death against his sister figure. She manage to fake her death and when the hero get cornered by the elder, the Loli vampire is able to create an opening that the hero exploits by throwing his signature dragon blessed throwing knife. At the end of saison 1, the hero take the head of the guild and extends it's power to other countries where new guilds unheard of rule through terror and needless violence.

[@Skallagrim]

Thanks. :)

[@somerando1073]

Wow, you are SO much happier at your new house, it shows and it improves the quality of your video. I actually turn the hatchet backwards when I throw it, so the handle sticks up when it hits, not down, I find that leading with the flat on the top of the blade rather than leading with the edge when doing it the normal way, helps it stick better. Same for a single edged knife, I'll lead with the spine, not the edge. I never cared for the no spin throw, it tends to require more specialized knives than the spin, which can work for almost any knife with a bit of adjustment.

[@pathfinder7614]

I appreciate the fact you showed all the out takes of you trying to stick that backward throw. Love your vids man

[@LABCHiMP]

Not random bullshit, I've learnt so much from your channel. I can look at most relavent weapons and know why they are shaped like they are, and what style of combat they are suited for. You're ability to explain detail is, not only very entertaining, but very informative and practical.

[@richardmcginnis5344]

i love no spin throwing, before i knew about it i couldn't throw a knife to save my life, after watching just one video on youtube about it i can throw a knife like throwing a rock. its the best and i have been doing it training myself to be more and more accurate since the last time i got back to connecticut from visiting my mom in arizona 7 years ago. i taught my girlfriend the grand kids and a few really good friends. after watching the beginning of the video i can tell you the easiest way to learn is how i learned, hold the knife point forward with your index finger along the spine and when you attempt to throw it just point your index finger at what you want to hit, throw the knife and let go as your finger aligns with what you wish to sink it into, it works, i was sinking a little 4 inch "u.s.army rangers" throwing knife a quarter inch into half inch plywood within the first 5 minutes from 10 feet away then i stepped back to 20 then when i was doing it at that distance i stepped back another 5 feet and continued i did this until i was around 30 feet out from the target, it gets a little bit harder the further away you are but it still hits point first and its great

Funny story... you throwing the axe reminded me of it...I was at a gathering of those that follow the Nordic gods back in 96 at a place in California called Big Bear. At the gathering we had an axe throwing contest. The ONLY person that got the axe to stick during one round got it to stick handle first (the handle of the axe we were using was a hollow pipe) and even then the axe only stuck in the support leg of the target.

[@Ranstone]

[@ElliWoelfin]

Preferably after stopping time for a few seconds.

[@emptyother]

As someone with no clue this was the technique i figured worked well on a cheap plastic-handle belt knife (without a spine guard): Hold the index finger along the spine and far enough up the blade that the handle needs to travel along your entire palm and index finger when you release it. Then trow the knife with a short and slingshot-like movement that ends when your arm and palm and index finger point toward the target. After that it was just about practicing when to let go of the blade; slightly before you stop your movement.

[@dustymooneye5858]

Skall, you really seem a lot more happy and energetic since after the move and i love all the random bullshit (and swords!) that you did before, but it all just seems even better now :D

[@ジョジョさま]

No spin throwing was far easier to me than spin throwing. As long as it has a flat spine, it can probably be thrown with no spin. You can put so much force into it as well. You can even learn to throw them from either shoulder using the same hand, or doing an underhanded throw.

[@ravencrovax]

I learned how to no-spin throw several years ago and I would definately agree, stay at to 2-4m and get them to stick every time you throw. Once you get that you can start moving farther away. The way I learned was to have the flat of the blade against the palm of my hand and lightly pinch it with my thumb to hold it while swinging. Then you can learn how much pressure to apply with your thumb to keep the blade in place until the point that you want to let it loose. It is also a bit more safe as you can increase your thumb pressure up until the blade is out of your hand if you decide not to throw for some reason.

[@TerkanTyr]

This video was pretty hilarious, the knives were cool too. Loved the axe though. And something about the pacing was brilliant.

Kiiick Ass! Cool watching you get the hang of it. Killer target you built as well. Always practice targeting by sound for the best accuracy.

Learning this skill greatly improved my blindfolded accuracy.
