Throwers

Great! Lee Fugat, the famous knife maker and knife thrower from oversea appears on our mailing list - winner of the International Knife Throwing Championship in Las Vegas in 1998. Visit his website to see what cool knives, flutes, ritual things and poems he is producing!

... I would dearly love to attend your meetings but
Deutschland is a looong drive from Northern California and
I doubt my old truck could make it past Spain....

Hey, so we must arrange a meeting in Spain or Portugal one day. Cuz this his truck perhaps just might do! Grin.

He loves to experiment with most different devices. And he is always in good mood:

>>>
Ob's stürmt oder schneit,
ob die Sonne uns lacht,
wir werfen bei Tag und bei Nacht!

With his classic website messerwerfen.de he is the pioneer of the german virtual throwing space. And visit there the german knife thrower forum, the fastest way to meet your collegues and to discuss with them.

The picture above is a cutout ... wanna know, whom this hand belongs to? See messerwerfen.de/solingen.html.

Hey, fantastic, what star does accompany our greenhorn group! Hope, this does not frighten away you hobby throwers, for whom the group is meant. Niabi and David are quite normal and friendly folks, they do not bite at all.

See David and Niabi in action in chapter "Technique - Two Aiming Strategies " .

And she is collecting knives from the fleemarket, such which are suited for throwing.

On the picture above, mind that dash - it is the axe, right in the moment before hitting the camera, hahaha. See the full picture sequence in chapter "Technique - From Grip to Throw - Step 4 ".

For producing that chaotic website you are reading right now, surely he needs some helpers. Learn about them in chapter "Appendix (E) - The Authors' Team".

You can watch Gregor throwing each year at the "Kaltenberger Ritterturniere" (a big german medievals spectacle).

See the tomahawk flying on the picture.
