The cheap knives on amazon are usually Ok. These are fun, shiny... kinda bendy though, and not that heavy.

Before you get knives, normal silverware knives are fun to throw. They are nice and heavy, and not that sharp. IDK if it is safe though, the knife might snap.

Cold Steel True Flight Throwers are very good. Big and heavy knives are good to learn on. I own 5 and love them all, they take all the abuse you can give them. They are about $25 each.

Next I would say something like this Gil Hibben set. The stainless steel is not the best for throwing, but these are plenty thick enough. My friend owns a set of these and they are very fun to throw. 3 knives for $25

Finally I would recommend a cheap pack like this 6 pack for $20. I started with a 12 pack of knives similar to these because with 6 knives you can really get the proper technique down quickly because you don't have to walk to the target after every throw. Another benefit of these knives is that you don't have to worry about damaging them. I cringe when my $25 True Flights bounce off the ground, but I don't care about the cheapo ones.

If you want to look on your own, here are some things to look for.

  • Steel: Make sure you know what steel the knives are made of. Many of the cheap sets will use terrible, flexible steel.

  • Length: Long knives are easier to learn how to throw on and easier to throw in general.

  • Width: Thin knives are generally worse to throw than thicker ones. They can snap and bend easily.

  • Weight: Heavier the better. Light knives ricochet off of targets and can come back at you with quite a bit of speed. Heavier knives are also easier to stick because they have more mass and more kinetic energy.


    Good luck, throwing is very fun.
