I've been getting many comments from first-time viewers to my channel. Here are answer to frequently-made-comments:

1) Do your neighbors complain about the knife throwing?

No complaints on sound, as I would throw at a reasonable hour for an hour or so. There are much louder noises around, like frequent lawn mowers and building construction. In fact, the neighbor that lives behind me thought it was great that I was knife throwing. (That clip is at the very end of my "Vertical vs. End Grain Target" video).

2) Have you thrown your knife at your dog or over the fence?

No. I carefully selected the placement of my target so it's far enough away that I wouldn't hit a nearby fence, plus it's an area where my dogs do not frequent. If my dog gets in the "danger zone" of my range, I shoo them away or sometimes I leave them inside the house. Why I don't leave them inside is because they're dogs and love to be outside. It'd be mean to let them stay inside all day.

3) Your form sucks. Your throw is weak. Anyone can throw from that close. You wouldn't be able to kill anyone with that throw.

This video simply shows how I begin my warm up. If you want to see trick shots or throwing from farther distances, you can watch my other videos. In this video, I'm working on my 4 m throw, but now I'm comfortable past this mark. As for killing people, that's how movies portray knife throwing. This is a sport in which there are competitions around the world involving accuracy and distance, usually using the conventional rotational technique. Basically, most throwers aren't doing it for self-defense.

4) The knife is spinning! How is there no spin?

No spin is a misnomer. You can learn more about no spin vs. rotational throwing here:    • PART 1:  Best Indoor Projectile, Knif...  

I also compiked this playlist to help beginners in no spin:    • No Spin Tutorial Videos for Beginners...
