i was thinking if i just buy thick cork board and put it on my wall itd be perfect to throw my throwing Knives at, but if anyone has any other good ideas or from experience thatd be nice:) just please nothing expensive.

A dart board works well for practice. It is thick enough so that the knives don’t go all the way through to the wall. Put a larger piece of plywood behind it, like 4 feet x 4 feet, for when you miss. Also you may want to pull off the wire frame from the front of the dart board.

I’m buying from Zwillingonline and I’m wondering what Knives to buy. I’m already buying the starter set of three knives(chef, paring, and carving) from the profection series, but I’d like to add one more knife to widen my variety. Should I add a santoku, or a bread knife, or what? I’ll choose top answer. :)
What good does a carving knife do besides cutting cooked meat? Should I exchange the carving knife for a bread knife and then add a boning knife?

I agree with the previous answers. I would choose a Santoku over a Chef, but since you have a Chef, go with the bread knife. A good serrated blade is crucial.

I just received a couple of beautiful flatware caddies along with the flatware. I couldn’t wait to put them in the flatware drawer. Now I’m noticing that the knives just won’t stay in. The caddy is stainless steal & opened all around. The Knives seem to be the only thing that fits through the openings & slide out. Does anyone have this problem? If so, how did you remedy it?

Go to Wal-Mart and buy a roll of non slip padding for under a small rug, cut to fit the caddy and then you can lay your knives in it.

I am a soldier coming home from Korea, I have acquired a few knives of various sizes, nothing too ridiculous. I was planning on putting them in one of my checked bags, will customs have a problem with this?

Jst coming back from Afghanistan and i brought back 4 Knives. As long as they are in your checked baggage in a sheath, and not spring loaded your fine. I brought back a 16 in "Rambo" knife. They pulled it out looked at it and put it back in and sent me through the line

I have a six inch blade with a four inch hilt and I was wondering if it was legal to carry in public if it was on a sheath on my belt in the state of missouri. It is a hunting/survival knife. also what is the limit on blades one person can carry?
It is a fixed blade.

It’s not just state laws you have to worry about. Most cities also have their own ordinances that will limit the size of the knife you can carry.

i know they arent real and they wont be real, but i just want to know what your opinions are as to how throwing Knives will take down a zombie?
what about throwing darts? or blow guns?

nope, i’d say the skull’s too thick to reliably get a throwing knife to the brain. Your best bet is some kind of bludgeoning weapon that can cause severe brain trauma

My boyfriend has been talking about wanting a good hunting knife, more as a survival tool just in case. What are some good ones?? I saw some that were not that expensive that looked nice and had good reviews, and saw some that are a little pricier also with good reviews. Is it worth it to splurge, or are the less expensive ones nice too? What one specifically would you recommend?

Hard to beat a Buck hunting knife along the lines of their 119 Special. Cost about 50 bucks and has a full tang in case you damage the handle, you still have the tang to hold onto. I’ve never seen this happen but that’s the reason for a full tang knife.

Buck Knives have a great guarantee and pretty much no questions asked. I’ve used mine for about 20 years now and along with my own deer, I have skinned and butchered the rest of the camps deer. So, I’ve cleaned about 130 deer with just that knife.

As the title states, i need to know how to make throwing Knives.. Its a little project i’ve been thinking about, and i’m starting tomorrow. I pretty much have everything i need.. Hammers, and anvil (in my case a big chunk of steel), and of course fire. Now, does it matter what kinda steel i use? Because i have a bucket of ridiculous size bolts laying around, i figured i could use those? Any tips would be appreciated!

sign someone else’s name on them.
