From Iran I am Farhad (36 years old), I am a civil engineer and manager of Co. I am married and have a girl four years old. 
I started throwing 2 years ago, after I severely injured my right hand in an accident, (I cut all the nerves in it), and I needed some physical therapy. After 8 months of therapy, I started knife and needle-throwing!!! 
My first practice was with the needle, and I learned to throw one spin from 2 meters (6 feet). The length of the needle was 10 centimeters (1/3 foot). After a while, the "therapy" started working. My wrist was getting stronger and I was ready to move up to "knife" throwing. 
About six months ago, I started internet and searched for information about "knife throwing" and "throwing knives". Thats when I found your site and translated your free tips and newsletters which were very useful to me. (An interesting point, I requested the 101 FREE KNIFE THROWING TIPS from your web site and I used your guide and now I throw the needle from 8 meters - 24 feet - for 1 turn!) My progress is slow because in Iran throwing knives are illegal and they will prosecute anyone who buys or sells a throwing knife. So I must practice hidden. (I practiced throwing in our dining room and damaged all the furniture... my wife was very angry? :) HOMEMADE THROWERS I also have to make all of my throwers. 
The materials I used to make my throwing tools were a car spring and a big saw blade. I made my first simple design by sawing, grinding and shaping. 
Here are a few of my other homemade throwers so far: 
I hope to countinue to practice throwing and making knives. Sincerely, Farhad If you have any pictures you'd like to share, you can send them to: Scott Gracia It's free, and there's no obligation. |
