Throwing Knife Orc - 24 cm

This product is handmade and/or hand-painted and therefore unique. As a result, the products can have natural deviations in patterns, colors and shapes, which are not considered defects or faults. Measurements are all in cm if not stated otherwise.

You hold your Throwing Knife between your teeth, keeping it handy while your hands are busy picking a noble’s unguarded luggage. Leaving anything valuable without a guard is like an invitation to steal it...at least that’s been your experience.

With a satisfying ‘click!’ the lock comes undone and you pry the chest open to reveal--oh, yes! That will do nicely. You pocket what looks to be a sizeable purse and a few interesting looking weapons, before carefully replacing the lock and sneaking out of the tent undetected.

The 14 cm blade is double-edged and angled from the handle. The 10 cm curved handle is handpainted and sculpted to look like green-tinted wood and a metal pommel. The knife comes with leather lacing around the crosspiece.

Made from coreless durable closed cell foam and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that this throwing knife will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your kit.

HISTORY

• Designed to resemble a “balanced knife,” which is preferred by most Western traditions

• Throwing a knife was always considered a risk in martial arts, because an unsuccessful attack would leave you without a weapon while arming your attacker
• A fuller, or the groove that runs the length of the blade, was added to weapons to lighten the blade while adding structural strength

• Made from durable closed cell foam that does not shred
• High safety
