As someone who has taken the time to learn to throw knives pretty well, I can tell you that it takes a great deal of practice and is still not something you would want to rely on for self defense, even once you get pretty proficient. A lot of it comes down to judging distance to target, and a moving target, particularly moving toward you, would be very hard to hit reliably.
Are you sure about this? They sell them at Academy.
I believe they sell bowie knives as well, but until the September 1st law takes place, they are illegal to carry.
Illegal to carry, I understand. But I took the bolded part I quoted to say that they were illegal to even possess, which made it seem illogical that a store would be able to sell them (or even have them in inventory).
Academy sells batons too. You can own but carry is questionable and many times debated here.
