Nothing wrong with throwing a folder. This is what keeps knife makers in business 
Ralph Thorne advocates a handle heavy knife. Probably 1/1000000 chance that you will need to throw it but, practice on soft targets (hay bales). Practice with fixed blades until you are proficient. Remember safety. Sticking yourself or a friend while practicing or showing off will make you look real stupid and might incur a liability. If you are not of age (18 or older) get your parents permission before trying these activities. Alot of us played mumbly peg when we were growing up, most ended up with cuts, and a few went to the ER.
