More Top Shot!
Took some pics of my knife design off the TV set last night. It looks like Knife Thrower to the Stars Jack Dagger will be the expert for this episode. It also looks like the knife episode will be next!! From what I could tell they did a phenomenal job of filming the throwing!! Wow, the slo-mo is incredible!
Here’s Jack Dagger making it look so easy!

Throwing Knife Design
So I watched the show intro today and found an image of a knife. I assume this is one of the knives that the teams will use on the show.
The coolest part of it is that I designed that knife with my friend Jack Dagger!! I was pretty stoked to see it on the screen!
This image from the intro.

Here’s two of the knives which were designed for The King of Fling, Jack Dagger.

Here’s a drawing I did of what the knife would look like with handles etc.

Size compared to hot Asian girl.

Here are some of the prototypes.

Initial Concept Design.

New Throwing Knife
So I sent some throwing knife blanks I designed to my buddy Joe Darrah so he could make a few Mountain Man Throwers for me and he surprised me by also making this über pimped out version!

Thanks Joe!!

Knife Throwing
Here’s some pics on the set of the Japanese television show “Dream Vision”.
In December, 2007, Jack Dagger, Tonya Kay and I did a knife throwing segment for Dream Vision, a Japanese television show on NTV. Lots of 1200 fps knife throwing footage.

Jack Dagger and Tonya Kay

Only a few inches between a great shot and ruining a $60,000 camera!

The beautiful and talented Tonya Kay!

Slo-mo catch!

Jack Dagger
In December, 2007, Jack Dagger, Tonya Kay and I did a segment for Dream Vision, a Japanese television show on NTV. Lots of slow motion footage. Very cool. Hope you enjoy!
This was taken with my Sony Camera. I’m the person throwing the knives.
Here’s more from the show.
Combat Knife
I was asked to come up with a custom fighting knife. My initial design is based on a Kukri knife which was part of the regimental weaponry and heraldry of Gurkha fighters. I added a skull crusher and redid the blade shape.
