Arkie,
imo, throwing can take a toll on the knife, especially the handle. I've heard about folks cracking their micarta, rivets, etc.
Half decent steel i can alway grind back to shape.. but i would prefer no scales/just bare metal handle, maybe cord wrap.

I'm currently shopping for some dedicated Throwing knives myself! ..inspired by this Norseman's thread!

So far i'm looking at..
Cold Steel Sure Flight Thrower 80TK12, but Andy reminded me the steel has changed..
$19.00 msrp for Older Carbon V
$11.99 msrp for Newer 1055 steel
...Interweb prices are lower..

that's it for now.. What have you found out there?
