The Black Sword: 10.23" Throwing Spikes with Sheath, 0.236" Thick Black Series Stainless Steel Spin/Half Spin Throwing Set

I really enjoy throwing these. In my opinion They are a good weight at around 213 grams. The balance point is right on the cross guard, making it more of a handle-heavy knife. They are apparently designed for rotational throwing, but I find that for me they work surprisingly well for no-spin. I'm actually enjoying no-spin throwing these more than other weightier knives I have that are designed for no-spin. It may be the weight distribution being a bit further back on this knife and it may have something to do with the contour of the handle. The handle shape and the guard on these makes them look unsuited for no-spin, but in my opinion when your index finger is placed just behind the guard and you throw with a snappy push of the index, it really can work very well with that satisfying feeling of the finger shooting the knife from the hand.I'm slightly concerned about the durability of these knives since they have a clear weak spot at the hole near the front of the handle. I haven't broken one yet, but have had them only less than a week. At such a good price though, I'm not too worried.

Nice weight, ,well balanced, sturdy, overall everything one would want in something designed to be chucked at hunks of wood all day long.You may want to get a bit of bright paracord to tie on, or perhaps spray paint the handle something brightly colored- They can be difficult to find in leaves and stuff if you have an errant throw.Otherwise though, absolutely a worthwhile purchase

I came into this not expecting much. Its' 3 throwing knives for 20 bucks, they're not going to be professional, perfectly balanced ninja-quality throwing knives. They're hunks of steel that are carved into a throwing knife shape and relatively balanced. With that in mind, they're nice. These knives feel decent in the hand and can get a good rotation without a ton of effort and finesse. Since the knives are larger and have more heft to them than smaller sized knives, it doesn't take much to get these to the target... making them great for beginners and novices as well as pros who wanna have some fun. They throw pretty accurately and seem durable enough. No dings, bent tips or cracks yet. The nylon sheath thing is kinda cheap feeling, but aren't they all?

I throw hatchets, axes and knives, and I must say, these have been the best so far. I have a bunch of different knives and they all have their issues so when I saw these I thought ide give them a try, and glad I did. Perfect weight and balance. Shaped like a dagger totally makes it possible to throw handle or blade. Just sharpen the point up a bit and your good to go. I will be buying more because these are now my main throwers.

First off, these are not hardened stainless steel. They are cast, and break easily. I thought I was getting a great deal, but after a weekend of light throwing, none were in working condition. They are also lighter than most throwing spikes, and are near impossible to throw no spin or 1/4 spin. The tip was blunt, so I did sharpen them.

No-spin, half-spin, full-spin, they work.Hit hard and are solid.I’m buying more.Great job JXE JXO!I’m new to the hobby/sport so for me they get me into it without breaking the bank.

So far, so good. I'm loving the feel of them. The balance and sound of ot sticking.

Decent quality knives. Case feels cheap. They feel slightly heavy towards the handle. These knives are not sharp. Plan on spending some time sharpening these yourself. These are fine entry level knives. If you’re just starting out this is a fine place to start. More experienced throwers will be disappointed.

I like how these blades are easy to throw with any technique. They say they are designed for half or full spin but they throw just fine with Russian non spin too. The blade portion is dull on the sides for gripping, but I will likely grind an edge because I rarely hold the blade for throwing. These are nice knives, but not sure on the steel quality, the steel feels a little light to be regular SS or Carbon steel, still, for the low price these initially appear to be a great deal.
