Made by Cold Steel
NEW TO THE STORE!!! A Simple Design from the Good Ol' Days!This knife takes inspiration from a 1950’s classic designed by Harry McEvoy, a true pioneer of our sport. The 'Sure Balance' Throwing Knife features a narrow, yet robust point that drives deep into a wood target, but is resilient enough to resist bending or breaking. It’ll wreak havoc no matter how it lands! These throwers are made from sturdy 1055 Carbon steel and have a black, weather resistant powder coat finish that will help cast off rainy and inclement weather like an umbrella. These knives are tough, built to last, and ready to endure all that you can dish out on them! We know you’ll love the reasonable price and professional style of these heavy duty throwers! Whats so special about 1055 Carbon Steel? 1055 steel is right on the border between a medium and a high carbon steel, with a carbon content between 0.50%-0.60% and with manganese between 0.60%-0.90% as the only other component. The carbon content and lean alloy make this a 'shallow hardening steel' with a quenched hardness between Rc 60-64 depending on exact carbon content. These combination of factors make this one of the toughest steels available because when quenched, you avoid the brittleness of higher carbon materials. This steel is particularly suited to applications where strength and impact resistance is valued above all other considerations and will produce blades of almost legendary toughness. (Sounds like a great steel for a throwing knife!) The final step is a precise heat treatment sequence that was developed by Cold Steel. This heat treatment process is one of Cold Steels most highly guarded trade secrets. It was arrived at over several years by using an exhaustive series of practical and metallurgical tests and observations. Overall, they believe that attention to detail in every phase of the manufacturing process is the primary reason for the superiority of Cold Steels blades. What this means for you is a smooth release, durable coating and less cleaning, oiling or rust to worry about on your throwing knives! What’s more, due to their tough 1055 Carbon Steel construction and durable finish, these knives will last for hundreds of tournaments or shows. And to make your job even easier, Cold Steel has incorporated a strong yet very sharp sure-stick point into their design that guarantees a hard hit and superb penetration everytime the point hits the target!
The Sure Balance Thrower is just shy of 13 1/2" in length and weighs a little over a pound so its definitely in the heavyweight class. It has more than enough weight and length to give you complete control and all of the penetrating power you could ask for! Each knife also comes with a Cordura Sheath. You won't have to worry about knives falling out of your target or "floating" away from the point of aim because they are too light and got "caught" in the wind. only $21.95 each.

One way around this is to clean and oil your knives on a regular basis. (Kind of a pain.) Another way is to paint the knife, but throwing knives take alot of abuse so the paint comes off pretty easily. The designers took this to the next level and decided to have these knives "powder coated". Powder Coating is an advanced method of applying a decorative and protective finish. The powder used is a mixture of finely ground particles of pigment and resin, which is sprayed onto the knife. The charged powder particles adhere to the electrically grounded surfaces until heated and fused into a smooth coating in a curing oven. The result is a uniform, durable, high-quality, and attractive finish.
Here are just a few reasons why these knives are better than other cheaper "floater" knives being sold:
