Throwing knives for combat
One of my favorite youtubers, lindybeige's video on the general absurdity of throwing knives. Funny as always.
Full disclosure: I have throwing knives, know how to throw them (my dad taught me actually) and yes, it seems pretty cool. However, I too am aware of the ridiculousness of actually carrying any around or even using them in known-fight situations (war, street fight, etc).
It's a fun, neat skill to learn, but it's definitely within the classification of performance martial arts.

I only have one thing to say...Poison. That is all I can think of :)
Entertaining as always!
i think this guy is joking but.
one shot kills with a throwing knife is not the goal. its rare like killing someone with a single stab wound.
the whole idea about knife throwing is inching an advantage by wounding them physically and mentally before engaging in combat.
But, i only see knife throwing practical in home invasion scenarios and not in the street.
