Very cool video, but how realistic is this for actual application?
Those guys are obviously very experienced. For the average Joe out there in a fight or flight situation I would rather hold on to my knife and still be able to use it than risk throwing it and missing.

Good points, Lucas. I suppose it would be a handy skill to have if your interests pertain to such thing, as being prepared is always about learning something new.
If I were in a knife fight, and I had the ability to throw a knife and guarantee a hit, it would protect me from having to move into the enemies knife range.
Another angle is that if I was skilled in throwing knives, and in a fight, I definitely wouldn’t throw my only knife. But if I had a couple on me, then that would put me at a great advantage.

Good points, I agree in a knife fight I am staying as far away from my opponent as possible.
Then again I would rather have firearm and not have to get in a “knife fight” to begin with.
