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.
