I mean, if the knife is balanced, there should theoretically be an equal chance for every angle of the knife to hit the target, not just the sharp part, right? Is it just “it only has time for about half a rotation” and take the distance and speed into account?
In: Physics
So if you are throwing the knife in random ways each time you may hit point first 10-30% of the time. Knife throwing needs you to account for distance, speed of the throw, and spin rate. Distance can be estimated with experience, speed can be controlled pretty easy, and spin rate is controlled by how far up or down you hold the blade. Understand throwing knives are not serious weapons even though they are dangerous as they require a ton of skill to be constant. If you pick it up one day than dont be shocked if it takes a week before you can hit worth a damn. I’d recommend starting with card board targets as even if you hit back end first it’ll stick so you will know exactly how it landed. Start at 3 yards and work your distance once you have consistent sticks point in. Focus landing points rather than power. Build power after you can land hits.
