Throwing Knife Bootknife - 24 cm

Epic Armoury’s Throwing Knife Boot Knife is a straight throwing knife with a minimalistic brass crossguard. This 25 cm knife has a 13 cm straight double-edged blade with a fuller. The 9 cm handle is hand-painted and sculpted to look like wood with two small nails.

Manufactured to complement most of Epic Armoury’s products, the Throwing Knife Boot Knife goes well with high and low-fantasy genres without breaking the overall style and feel of your costume. Made from coreless durable closed cell foam and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that this throwing knife will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your kit.

History

• Designed to resemble a “balanced knife,” which is preferred by most Western traditions
• Knife throwing was first used in martial arts and hunting before it became a sport
• Throwing a knife was always considered a risk in martial arts, because an unsuccessful attack would leave you without a weapon while arming your attacker
• A fuller, or the groove that runs the length of the blade, was added to weapons to lighten the blade while adding structural strength
