So what was your Biggest Mistake when you started Knife Throwing? Let me know :) PS: At the AceJet we have now a BLACK FRIDAY Everything is with 25 % Discount: www.acejetofficial.com/
Buying cheap knives. Even medium priced knives are mostly no good. You want knives that are 6mm thick at least. Even though Adam is now a greedy capitalist all things considered his knives are the best deal I know of and I speak as one designing his own knives and getting them from laser cutters. Unless that is whatt you want to do as a hobby I do not recommend this approach.
How crazy is it to think back to your first videos years ago, and now you are the most famous knife thrower on TH-cam, and maybe even the world? Im glad to be a part of that journey.
I wish I had found his content sooner. I think I first seem him on Jeorg Spraves channel as I shoot slingshots. After watching some videos recently i thought id have a good and its good fun.
Most importantly: beware ricochets. Be very careful when throwing from short distance, avoid throwing at uneven targets. If you throw at a standing dead tree, you will mostly get ricochets to the sides away from you. MOSTLY. If you throw at a fallen dead tree, you can very easily get a ricochet off the upper curvature of the trunk and the knife will come straight back at'cha. I've tried this, lots of blood and a few stitches. Safety aside, my biggest problems have been lost throwing items. I've started to add brightly colored tape and/or paint on my knives and shuriken, and I always keep a metal detector handy. The metal detector has saved the day countless times now, but the bright colors have made the detector unnecessary even more often. I've also recently switched from dead trees to simple homemade targets. Just a wooden sidegrain board made from normal planks, so much better than trying to find the perfect dead tree in the perfect indisturbed location.
Just yesterday threw my knives at a tree from a few feet away and to my surprise it ricochet right back at me with the same force I threw it at. Hit me right in ribs but luckily it hit me with the bold side otherwise I would have punctured my lungs.😬
Only had problems with ricochet with cheap knives at close range. Never lost a knife, and I've always practiced at dead trees. It's quite obvious that you shouldn't throw those things like playing darts, but anyway.. Good tips for beginners is too always wear ample clothes cut resistant, and cheap working protective glass, and a beanie to protect your head, even in summer. This way I've never hurt myself. Never throw uphill also, THAT can be seriously dangerous, but it's quite obvious also.
Adam is probably one of the easiest people to learn from. Not only is his positive and cheerful. His insight is invaluable to the beginner. Got say my mistake was buying WKTL first set. Apparently they didn't make them very well.
Great advice man. I totally agree with what you said about not mixing techniques. Stick with one set of knives and whatever technique you like best and master that before moving on. 🤘🏻🔪
Rope dart is my primary skill for ten years. And the one I've been using most is a throwing knife. But in my years, man I have thrown everything. Silverware, chopsticks, nails, stars, spikes, screwdrivers, and all kinds of knives. I got my whole family into knife throwing and you were the main thing I showed them for ideas. I made many of these beginner mistakes but I will keep improving. I am getting your knives soon. And maybe someday you and I will throw together. I am also a lefty. 😊
Just wanna say your videos helped me a lot. I'm working on the no spin technique. And before I went from not sticking much of anything and breaking the tip off one knife. To throwing with confidence and sticking it 95% of the time.
My knives are just to light I’m planning on going to knife works in Tennessee to buy better ones though if I don’t find one probably gonna get one from Ace Jet ;))
Bro I also look forward to throwing knives as soon as I wake up until I finish the day and fall asleep. Thanks you for the best free knife throwing tutorials.
I love how you give tips to help us, like overthinking, as well as tips for our convenience/safety like not throwing next to a pile of branches. I really apreciate that thoughtfulness.
Great video, Adam. My mistake was thinking that no spin knife throwing was near impossible and only in the movie's. I learned no spin from watching your channel and now I practice it almost exclusively. Knife throwing took on a whole new dimension of fun and challenge for me. Thanks so much brother. 👍✌
Lost a knife in some logs. Now I know to set up my chop blocks more in the open. Getting another set of knives soon. Mistakes and failure are more important for cultivating success and I'm glad I haven't been deterred from my experience :)
Your a great teacher man, I threw haphazardly for years. A few minutes of listening to and watching you,greatly improved my understanding of throwing mechanics! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! ILL BE WATHCHING MORE!
I've been throwing knives since I was about 13/14.. My first set was from Gil Hibben love his knives and axes and well within my budget then. Still use the set today as well as knives I have made myself
I've started throwing with the small hibben set knifes that you showed. The bigger sets (in size) are muuuch better. Specially the Tanto one. Small set is good for short distance spinning technique, but wayyy too light for long distance throws.
One more hint: keep the knives in boiled linseed oil (rust protection). If you throw in the woods add a light ribbon in a neon color. It makes them much easier to find once they have embedded themselves in leaves or in the soil. Has saved me a couple of times.
Few weeks ago I made myself a set of 3 throwing knives from Ikea butcher's knives and I started practicing. Believe me, after a bit of sanding and hardening on the point, they started to stick like spears in the wood planks, also if not in the direction of the fibers. I'm having so much fun at throwing them and at building new ones from metal scratches. All this because of you, thank you so much Adam
biggest mistake i was trying to hard and rush for long distance!!i listen classic metal or nice conversations about philoshofy history mythology and when i hear something smart i nail it hard
I started with a relatively cheap 3pc set of 5mm thick 13.5 inch Cold Steel Perfect Balance throwing knives.. $70 shipped to my door three years ago. They are still some of my favorite knives.. Tomahawks are fun too.
On the point (pun) of throwing nets and back drops to retain your items when the target is missed, I've had good luck with moving pads. They're cheap, available at most hardware stores, and if you double or triple them up and drape them as a backdrop, they're dense enough to catch your items and deliver them to the ground/floor more gently, they're tough enough to take a lot of abuse. And the price is low enough that it doesn't hurt to tear them up. The only draw back is that they can be a little small.
Great advice mate, I'm still searching the leaves for my gil hibbens lol. 2 hours passes so quickly when I'm practicing my no spin throwing. Thanks adam 👍
Adam, your vids have become an important part of my daily routine, you're awesome attitude and dedication to helping people get better at what they enjoy is an awesome service. You and Joerg Sprave and all of these diy instructional guys out here doing what you guys do is supremely inspiring. Mad respect brother.
Thanks for your videos. I live throwing and use both Russia style half spin and no spin. My favorite throwers are the Glock and the cold steel true flight thrower. It takes lots and lots of practice to get consistent and even more to get accurate. Thanks again for your tutorials
Love these vids! I recently discovered your channel and now I've ordered a solid set of knives and look forward to beginning to learn! Thank you for inspiring me!
today i received fins and appache and 1 stinger gift thanks adam for the beautiful knives specialy fin is amazing i cant wait go to my mancave to launch the torpedos lol
Duuude... you are dope. Thanks so much for years of brilliant content.your enthusiasm and dedication to this beautiful art one can feel in every video,and it´s always contagious. keep it up,excellent work there !
This video helped me a ton. My biggest mistake was definetely overthinking about the details, that you've told in your tutorials - especially the wrist ( not bending it during the release ). I was so focused about not doing it, that I overstiffened it and I can't still figure it out, how stiff is too stiff. Tell me, is throwing the knife in some ways similar to throwing for example a ball ( without bending the wrist etc. ) ? My worst mistake is definetely the envirorment, that I live in - there's high grass everywhere, the ground for any target stand is uneven, so after 5 minutes it collapses etc. Thanks for mentioning those targets made from trunk or dead trees. I want to obtain those soon. And lastly - thank you for everything, that you do. Maks from Poland
Great video as always Adam and thanks for making that comment about throwing at live trees , does so much damage. I stopped throwing years ago but your videos rekindled that desire in me now i practice every day and have even taught my kids to throw
Just bought your knives. Can't wait to test them with no spin! Previously i used russian knives from Dmitri. So I'm exited to see how yours compare :) much love!
Unfortunately when I started throwing, when I was very young, there were no videos (no such thing as TH-cam) to watch and I threw between three live trees. Was good practice because their proximity was consistent, but yeah, if I knew better I would have made a target. You live you learn, but I had fun and learned a skill on my own, with good knives and cheap knives.
I just bought 3 knifes off amazon for $40, so about $13 per knife and im hoping that they are good quality, but i just want a hobby that i enjoy that is cheap and i can spend time outdoors doing it, and hopefully i can be really good at it one day
What I still do often “wrong” especially in the beginning is throwing to fast take your time between the throws no one is pushing you. But on the other hand when I started to be too theoretical and to brain focused it helped me sometimes to put my throwing speed frequency up or down to get a different feel or to just get out of the often problematic over thinking process while throwing. Maybe that helps someone :)
Thank s for yours tutos.. I m a beginner, and yes I was trying to learn different tecknics at the same time... But, what about learning throwing knife, but as well axe, shuriken.. Even as beginner, I think it s okay, but I would your answer please, Master...
Hi Adam ! Great video ! My mistake was using cheap knifes When they hit themself, little peces of metal was cutting my hand on the next throw I have order the APACHES Cain t wait 😂

Sorry i mean have a go.
@@batzpfsaddict2806 Yeah, there’s nothing quite like sticking a knife in a tree. I think it it the sense of simplicity and accomplishment.

Thank you for nice comment my friend ,)
I already have 2 cuts from ricochets after only 1 day of practice I wish I knew this sooner😂
Just yesterday threw my knives at a tree from a few feet away and to my surprise it ricochet right back at me with the same force I threw it at. Hit me right in ribs but luckily it hit me with the bold side otherwise I would have punctured my lungs.😬
Lost throwing stars ruin the whole day!

Thank you my friend WKTL is just money grab same like their axe bussines 😎😅🔪
Can't wait for more knife throwing content!
My biggest mistake with no spin was probably the release.
Nice to see these beginner videos coming out, Adam!

Get some for sure ,))
Was just there over black friday they had some junk sets and good sets
Hi adam!!!! I love your channel!
Thank you very much Josiah :)
Appreciate your tutorials. Very instructive, clear and has helped me to stick with learning to throw.
Bro I also look forward to throwing knives as soon as I wake up until I finish the day and fall asleep. Thanks you for the best free knife throwing tutorials.
I love how you give tips to help us, like overthinking, as well as tips for our convenience/safety like not throwing next to a pile of branches. I really apreciate that thoughtfulness.
Great tips
Took me 3-5 months (self taught ) to be able to hit my targets with my compound bow .
Great video, Adam. My mistake was thinking that no spin knife throwing was near impossible and only in the movie's.

Thanks for the tips! I’m just getting started, so many thanks! ❤️
"What was your mistake when you were starting out?"
You made a video detailing most of my mistakes... and it's THIS video xD
Your a great teacher man, I threw haphazardly for years. A few minutes of listening to and watching you,greatly improved my understanding of throwing mechanics! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! ILL BE WATHCHING MORE!
Alot of good advice. A lot of beginners get excited and don't consider these things. Have always learned alot from the beginning from all your videos!
Adam my friend and teacher thank you for this video. I've mentioned this kind of content for awhile and the Master has delivered!!!
these tutorials ha e tought me alot my friend. Thanks ❤
I painted my knives red for easier finding in nature especially when throwing with friends :) still matter of time to lose some of them :D
Hahaha I made a video about that then lost one of mine the next day
I lost one in my office throwing in card board. I searched everywhere for it, quite odd.
I think hat I like most about knife throwing is the sound of the blade pinning to the dead wood. Unique sound.
I love your energy. From Spain.
Si tio...adam es genial...
Hi Adam!
Hey my friend :))
start first with the soil as a target , works very well with full , half and no spin :):)

Excelente vídeo, que gran habilidad tienes :D
Your videos have helped alot I keep seeing little progress every time I throw
Ceiling tiles work great. Whatever that white foam/plaster material most buildings and offices use.
Thanks for the interesting infomations. This makes my decision for the quality knives easy.
Have a good time, Rene
Awesome Rene get something good :)) cheers
how you said about not to throw next to dead branches I did this it took me hours to find my knife lol.
