I know you can't chop down trees or do any fun destructive stuff with them but I would like advice/opinions on the best stuff to make my own throwing knife from
Thanks

Bigger is better. Softer cheaper carbon steel is your friend. I am using 1095 for my throwing stars because it is good steel that I can use for other stuff.
If I could get 1050 from my steel connection I would. Trace a simple design from
one of the CS throwers. It would serve them right as well.

Thanks jd01, Good for you, make your own throwers. I like my CS Carbon V thrower. it throws and it cuts. much better than my gil hibben throwers.

I always thought the CS thrower did actually make sense! I'll now go and beat myself for being nice to CS..

Please don't do that Paul occasionally good ideas come from the most unexpected places And anyway I may need to pick your brains when my throwing knife project runs into trouble
