I really wanted to find out if it is possible, in theory, to throw a knife in a way that it flies perfectly straight. So I constructed a rubber powered crossbow that does exactly that. I was surprised how well it works!

My little device shoots the knives at 46 m/s (152 mph) - enough for serious impact and flat trajectory.

Thought I let you know! Greetings from Germany.
 
Joerg,

Thanks so much for coming down to visit! Your videos are amazing, and you're a slingshotting king! I've got my kids shooting slingshot, and they love to watch your videos!

You've done well with the knife-throwing slingshot! That's one awesome shooter!
 
I am using a Chrony M1 Master (the one that has an external LCD display, much more safe (killed three displays before).
