UPC/Product code: 087171039084

The Kershaw Ion Throwing Knife Set w/BlackWash Finish (1747BWX) provides an ideal entry point for individuals interested in the sport of knife throwing. This set includes three meticulously designed knives, engineered by Kershaw to possess the essential weight and balance required for effective and consistent target throwing. Each knife features a full-tang construction, meaning the blade and handle are crafted from a single piece of high-chromium stainless steel, offering inherent strength crucial for repeated impacts. The knives feature a distinctive double-edged, spear-point blade design, which contributes to their balanced flight and aids in target penetration. A black-oxide BlackWash finish not only gives the knives a rugged aesthetic but also helps to conceal the marks and scratches that naturally occur during throwing practice. The handles are wrapped with durable, sure-grip paracord, providing a comfortable and secure hold. Additionally, an extra-wide ring at the pommel enhances balance and offers a practical point for lanyard attachment or for easy retrieval from a sheath or target. The set comes complete with a custom-fit nylon sheath, designed to securely hold all three knives, ensuring safe storage and convenient transport to your throwing range. KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Optimized Weight and Balance: Specifically designed for throwing, these knives have precise weight distribution to ensure consistent flight paths and successful target hits, making them excellent for both beginners and experienced throwers seeking reliable performance.; Full-Tang Strength: Constructed from a single piece of steel from blade tip to handle end, providing exceptional durability and resistance to bending or breaking, even with repeated high-impact throws.; Spear-Point, Double-Edged Blades: The symmetrical spear-point blade with two sharpened edges increases the likelihood of penetration, regardless of the knife's rotation during flight, enhancing the success rate of your throws.; BlackWash Finish: This unique black-oxide finish not only adds a visually appealing, worn-in look but also serves a practical purpose by effectively camouflaging minor scuffs and scratches from regular use, maintaining the aesthetic integrity of the knives over time.; Paracord-Wrapped Handles: The handles are wrapped in durable paracord, offering a secure and comfortable grip that is essential for controlled and accurate releases, reducing slippage during your throwing motion.; Integrated Ring Pommel: The extra-wide ring at the end of the handle adds to the knife's overall balance, provides a convenient attachment point for a lanyard, and facilitates easy removal of the knives from their nylon sheath or directly from the target.; Convenient Nylon Sheath: The included custom-designed nylon sheath safely and securely stores all three knives, making transportation easy and protecting the blades when not in use.; SPECIFICATIONS: Blade Length: 4.5 inches (11.4 cm); Blade Material: 3Cr13 Stainless Steel; Blade Finish/Coating: Black-oxide BlackWash coating; Blade Thickness: 0.137 inches (3.5 mm); Handle Material: Stainless Steel with Black-oxide BlackWash coating; Handle Thickness: 0.33 inches (8.4 mm); Overall Length: 9 inches (22.9 cm); Weight: 3.9 oz (113 g) per knife; Inclusions: Set of three throwing knives, one black nylon sheath; HOW TO USE: Safety First: Always ensure you are in a safe, clear area with a suitable target (e.g., a wooden stump, foam target) and no bystanders within range. Wear appropriate eye protection if desired.; Grip the Knife: Hold the knife firmly by the handle or blade, depending on your preferred throwing style (handle throw, blade throw, or no-spin). Ensure your grip is consistent each time.; Find Your Stance: Stand a consistent distance from your target. A common starting point is around 810 feet (approximately 2.53 meters). Experiment to find what works best for you.; Prepare to Throw: Bring the knife back, positioning it to allow for a smooth, controlled forward motion. Keep your wrist rigid to prevent unwanted rotation if performing a no-spin throw.; Throwing Motion: Execute a smooth, fluid forward motion, releasing the knife with a consistent trajectory towards the center of your target. The goal is to allow the knife to rotate the correct number of times (or not at all for no-spin) to strike the target with the point.; Retrieve and Repeat: Once thrown, safely retrieve the knives from the target. Note how the knife stuck (or didn't) and adjust your stance, grip, or release point for subsequent throws. Practice is key to improving accuracy and consistency.; BENEFITS OF USING KERSHAW ION THROWING KNIFE SET W/BLACKWASH FINISH (1747BWX): Accelerated Skill Development: The balanced design and uniform weight of each knife in the set allow for consistent practice, helping users rapidly develop precision and technique in knife throwing.; Cost-Effective Practice: As a set of three, users can quickly retrieve and re-throw, reducing downtime and maximizing practice efficiency without needing to walk to the target after every single throw.; Reduced Wear on Gear: The BlackWash finish helps to visually mask nicks and scuffs from repeated impacts, keeping the knives looking better for longer and minimizing the appearance of wear.; Enhanced Grip Security: The paracord-wrapped handles offer a tactile and secure grip, promoting confidence in the thrower's hand and minimizing accidental slips during the release.; Versatile Retrieval Options: The distinct ring at the pommel simplifies pulling the knives from dense targets and makes them easy to access from the sheath, improving the flow of your throwing sessions.; FEATURES: Three-piece synchronized set for consistent throwing dynamics; Designed for specific throwing function, ensuring proper balance and flight; Robust single-piece steel construction across blade and handle; Symmetrical blade profile for adaptable throwing styles; Proprietary dark finish that naturally conceals surface wear; Textured handle wrapping providing a secure, non-slip hold; Enlarged handle ring for balance and practical handling; Includes custom-fit protective case for entire set; Manufactured to Kershaws specifications and quality standards; Non-folding fixed blade type specific to throwing applications;.
