What knife do you throw?

coldsteel type throwers are freaken awesome! at least for newbies. worked great for me. My sureflight 12 inch series works fantastic. in fact, I was so inspired by this post that I started to throwing yesterday and kept it up for about 2 hours while getting them to stick in to a nice peice of wood at about 18-20 feet just about. I didn't measure, I really should have though.

I am looking at a CRKT Sting as a possible camp/throwing knife...what do you think?

Secondly, I am looking at some Gil Hill Hibben throwing knives...short about 6" long. Any comments on throwing short knives vs something longer??

So long as you have the mass, it should throw good.

I find that the longer and heavier a knife is- the easier it is to stick it! Also like Watchful said-- unless your camp knife is really sturdy and tough, it's best not to throw it. I've broken knives that were designed to throw- imagine the forces on knives not designed for it!
