I don't know how to throw knives, but I thought this video was interesting.

Pretty cool. Not sure what knife he's throwing at the dollar bill, but kinda looks like a SOG Seal Pup Elite.
 
That is actually really interesting, but it should be announced (rather screamed from the tallest mountain here in the General forum) that throwing any knife not designed specifically for throwing is a really BAD idea and will often (perhaps always) result in eventual breakage of the knife. Not everyone reading these forums understands the stresses/shocks that this imparts on a hardened steel.

PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS WITH ANY KNIFE NOT INTENDED FOR THROWING!

Thanks for sharing the video though.
 
It's a full-sized SOG Seal 2000. That was this fella's character's (John Locke) most-used knife on the show Lost. Great show, great character, and very interesting that he was interested enough to learn to throw.

Thanks for the link.

Prof.
