Help me name my peculiar throwing weapon (X-post Knife Trowing and Throwing Knives)

[TheDandyLion]

I recently made a throwing "knife" from an old saw blade and I really love it. So far in my brief history of knife throwing this has been the only one that I can deeply imbed in wood 10/10 times. I really enjoy throwing this knife because its very light and fast because of its thickness (or lack there of) unfortunately this means I have to really lob it for it to be effective. To get to the point I desperately want to find a name for it but keep drawing blanks. I also kind of want to show off my new projects result . so here are some pics:

you can see the shape and how it was once a saw blade

I usually throw it in this grip

And it sticks like this,

it usually sticks pretty deep because of its aforementioned thin blade

So what do you guys think? Its no high quality custom blade but not bad for a saturday project

Well I would prefer a different name the knife than my own USERNAME

"Knock Knock"

Because it has two points (two words) and it looks like a door handle to me

Still, Why?

Reminds me of a "Banda" or "Ngombe" style throwing weapon from Africa.

"Custom Mini Hawk Power Talon Thrower" - Model #CMHPTT-001 (for more styles/versions to come?)

Hybrid Custom - Looks like a cross between an miniature Tomahawk and an actual Hawk's Talon (claw). The "Power" in it's deep sticking capability is an obvious nomenclature for todays marketing.

Just my view of it, first gut feel and visual image. It's after midnight and I've had a couple good belts of Bourbon. Sounds good to me. Good luck with what ever you choose!
