Making it Stick DVD by Michael Janich

If you've ever wanted to learn how to throw a knife, axe, or tomahawk, here's your chance. With the help of ultra-slow-motion photography and computer animation, knife expert Michael Janich teaches you the secrets of weapon balance, spin, and throwing distance and shows you how to apply them to accurately throw and consistently stick knives, tomahawks, axes, and a variety of other purpose-designed throwing weapons. Janich demonstrates both blade- and handle-throwing methods and shows you the intricacies of half-spin, full-spin, one-and-a-half spin, and double-spin throws. He then teaches you how to apply these same principles to common, everyday objects to turn scissors, screw-drivers, chisels, tire irons, and even ballpoint pens into potent improvised throwing weapons. This is the most complete instructional video on weapon throwing ever produced and the only video to realistically address and teach the use of throwing weapons in self-defense situations.
