Smith & Wesson Bullseye Throwing Products with Full Tang Stainless Steel Design and Protective Nylon Sheaths for Recreation and Competition

Excellent product Quality!!! Really good.

So far so good my first throwing set! They feel great not to heavy very fun and price is great !!!!

Follow up, several months later and we are still throwing these. I am about to buy another set. I would also like to state that once you learn how to throw the knifes and axes, purchasing a higher quality (harder) steel also makes sense. You will miss less and stick more, that means less chance to break them.Original:We, my yeating family, really like the axes. They come sharp enough to actually cut you if you get careless. When you add that to the weight of these axes it means they will stick into wood it you hit it. They are amazingly easy to throw, once you get you distance set, all three of us were sticking them on every throw.The knives of of the same quality and have good weight to them, I was concerned after reading the reviews that they would break. They held up to me, and I throw hard! The draw back to the knives is, dull does not begin to explain it. It is like a steel bar that has been smoothed to avoid scratching the user, and then one end drawn to a point. The tip will pierce the skin with little effort, the rest of the blade would literally smash butter as you tried to get it from a container to butter your bread.For training I highly recommend both. I can get the knives to stick about 75% of the time, probably closer to 85-90% if I sharpen them. But from a training point of view, their weight makes up for the sharpness. I bought these to train, and learn to throw. I am getting my grip and form down with them so they are doing their job well.Drawbacks: If you think that steel used in a throwing blade should never bend or chip, you are wrong, the blades need to flex or they will break. This is the quality of steel I expected for the set. After several hours of throwing (actually it is the missing that messes them up) we acquired some small folds in the edges of the axes, these are minor and about 5 minutes of work per axe with a wet stone smoothed out the jagged parts enough to not snag on anything. To remove the marring completely would need removing about 1/32-1/16 of an inch. We are just going to throw them again so they do not need to be perfect. So the fact that they are a soft steel and need maintenance sucks, but it is necessary.Knives: same thing as above with the steel. The thing is, I will be sharpening these soon. The fact that they didn’t even pretend to put a cutting edge on them means I need to take them to the grinder to put a rough edge on them. Literally, there is no edge, the knife slopes to a point but it is impossible to cut yourself on them. If not for the point I would give them to a toddler and let them throw them.Bottom line: I grew up buying the cheapest thing around or making my own stuff. That said, I have thrown sheet metal thick throwing stars and knives, to small yet decent “beginner” quality knives. Camping axes and hatchets, along with drywall hammers. Short of buying professional grade axes and knives, this is the best I have ever purchased!

Axes are fun we used them at my sisters ,my nephew built a throwing board at their house. Lots a fun however if you take these to a axe throwing place the ones we go to will not let you use them ! same with the knives which are a little harder to get to stick when we tried at my sisters !

Good weight and balance for beginners.

The media could not be loaded. Smith&Wesson is known for their quality products. I instantly ordered this brand over others after bekng advised that these are the best you can buy.I ordered many things for Christmas and this came much more quickly than the other.Professional packaging allowed the knives to arrive in perfect shape and they are new never used.Quality is amazing as I expected from this company. Well made no defects well balanced.They won't break or snap like other brands and include a Sheath to easily store or carry the knives. I feel confident that these will last him a lifetime.I suggest the 10 inch. I did research on the difference between the lengths. The longer 10 inch is suggest as it's more stable and accurate when thrown. The extra weight may intimidate some a few customers. The knives are not too heavy but have good weight to them that will make them stick deeper and more easily into your target.100% suggest to choose this brand to avoid disappointment and great value for the money. I can't wait to recieve the axes and see my son's expression when he opens then for Christmas.It's a skill that could be useful and a gift that keeps giving since they will give him something to do and perfect.

I would say these are a really nice quality set of throwing axes. The balance on them is very well done. They're really easy for beginners to throw because they're great at sticking into the target. The size is a little bit small and could definitely be bigger, but when you go into a bigger size, they tend to get more expensive. I would say they are a highly functional set of axes and I would recommend purchasing them, especially if they're on sale.

Only have two left, one of the tips shattered and only the tips of them stick into the wood. Good for beginners but decently difficult to stick em
