Spyderco Thrower

kong · #1

During the time I was doing some fairly intensive research on throwing knives, it came to my attention that Randall Knives had, at one time, made a folding thrower.

So how about it, Sal? I understand the design difficulties in terms of balance and ability for either handle or blade throwing. I also realize that it would be a smaller knive, maybe something in the 4" range, 7" unfolded.

Comments?

Hi Kong. We have a patent on a fixed blade thrower. Haven't thought about production yet.

I would question the longevity of a folding thower that was used a lot. the forcs on the lock would be enormous.

Sal, Any prototypes floating around? If you need some serious testers, I will have approx 25 world class Knife Throwers at my range on October 13-14 2000 for the 5th annual American Knife Throwers Alliance National Championships. I always make a few prototypes for the throwers to play with over the week end. We would be glad to help<img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Thanx for the offer Bobby. Only one proto here and it needs some mods. Won't be able to do anything in that amount of time. too busy with the "running of a business".
