The wife informed me she needs more guns (I've got that part covered) and wants a throwing knife for Christmas. Can anyone recommend a good throwing knife?

I've never understood if you only had a knife for protection you'd throw it away.
It takes some skill to be a "knife thrower". JMHO

I would question the motive of a wife wanting a throwing knife[Tooth]

My best advice, never throw a tool of survival away! Get a good knife and keep it in your hand.

Some of you guys are way to paranoid... to OP, Cold steel makes throwing knives called sure balance for competition throwing. they're a bit heavier but for someone that just wanting to learn to throw a knife, and hit with it they're great and take alot of abuse.

Thanks for all the good advice and comments. The wife is just wanting to learn to throw a knife. She has a CCW and almost always carries. So, she won't be bringing a knife to a gun fight.

I was in the army with a guy who's dad taught him throw knives. Then when he got good, dad would throw him a knife and he would have to catch it and throw it back. When he got good with knives then he had to do the same thing with a hatchet. He was one of those quiet guys that you just didn't want to mess with.
