Throwing knives are versatile tools used for both combat and sport, as well as for survival situations where stealth and accuracy are essential. They come in various shapes and sizes, each designed for different throwing techniques and purposes. Some are light and balanced for quick, precise throws, while others are heavier for deeper penetration. In the Ironcliff universe, throwing knives serve not only as weapons but also as tools for hunting, defense, and sometimes even covert operations.
When selecting a throwing knife, the balance, grip, and shape of the blade all play key roles in how effectively it can be used. A well-crafted throwing knife can be a deadly weapon in the right hands or an excellent tool for survival when needed. Below are some of the common throwing knives used throughout the world of Ironcliff.
Type: Balanced Throwing Knife
Description: The Silver Fang is a well-balanced throwing knife designed for precision and speed. Its slender body and sharp point make it ideal for accurate throws at medium to long ranges. The knife's metallic sheen is crafted from high-quality iron, providing durability while maintaining a sleek profile. It’s a popular choice among hunters and soldiers who require a reliable, fast-throwing weapon.
Type: Heavy Throwing Knife
Description: The Ironcliff Dagger is a heavy, robust throwing knife designed for maximum impact. With a thicker blade and solid handle, it delivers a powerful strike when thrown, capable of penetrating tougher materials like wood and leather. The weight and thicker construction make it less agile than lighter knives, but it compensates with its sheer force, making it ideal for close-quarters combat or breaking through defenses.
Type: Lightweight Throwing Knife
Description: The Swiftsteel Needle is designed for speed and quick, repeated throws. Its thin, narrow blade allows it to slice through the air with minimal resistance, making it perfect for rapid-fire, quick-straight throws. While it may not have the same penetrating power as heavier knives, its speed and agility make it a favorite for precision-targeted strikes against smaller or more mobile enemies.
Type: Concealed Throwing Knife
Description: The Shadow Fang is a small, discreet throwing knife designed for stealth and concealment. Its compact size allows it to be hidden in sleeves or boots, making it ideal for covert operations. The lightweight construction ensures that it can be thrown quickly and silently, allowing the wielder to strike without drawing attention. This knife is perfect for assassins, scouts, or anyone in need of a quiet, quick weapon for close-range takedowns.
Type: Double-Edged Throwing Knife
Description: The Stormblade features a double-edged blade, allowing for increased versatility during throws. Whether using a straight or spinning technique, the Stormblade offers consistent performance, slicing through the air and striking with precision. It’s often favored by practitioners of the spinning technique, as the balanced design lets it rotate smoothly while ensuring a firm grip during throws.
Type: Tactical Throwing Knife
Description: The Bouldercleaver is a tactical throwing knife with a broad, cleaver-style blade designed for maximum damage. While it’s not as fast as smaller knives, its wide, heavy blade ensures that every throw carries a devastating impact, capable of breaking bones or cleaving through armor. Used primarily for combat situations where force is needed over speed, it is a tool for those who prefer brute strength and heavy strikes over agility.
