A Beginner Throwing Set That Doesn’t Look Like a Beginner Set
Most entry-level throwing knives look cheap because they are cheap. This 2-piece BioHazard set is different. The black and gold design actually looks good, the 440 stainless steel holds up to repeated impacts, and the weight is distributed for consistent rotation. You’re getting a set that works for learning and still looks cool on the wall when you’re done practicing.
Who This Throwing Knife Set Is For
This is for someone who wants to try throwing knives without buying a full set right away. Maybe you watched a video and got curious. Maybe you’ve got a backyard setup and want something to throw on weekends. Maybe you want a gift for someone who’s into blades. Two knives is enough to get started and figure out if throwing is your thing before investing in a bigger set.
Is This the Right Choice for You?
Choose the 2-Piece BioHazard set if you want:
- A starter throwing set without committing to a full collection
- Quality 440 stainless steel that handles repeated impacts
- A good-looking set with the BioHazard design theme
Consider something else if you need:
- More knives for less walking to the target (check the 3-piece set)
- A smaller knife for closer-range practice
Why 440 Steel Matters for Throwing
Throwing knives take a beating. They hit wood, bounce off hard surfaces, and slam into the ground when you miss. Cheap steel bends, chips, or snaps. 440 stainless steel is a workhorse grade that handles the abuse of repeated throwing without falling apart. It’s not the fanciest steel out there, but for throwing, it’s the right tool for the job — durable, easy to maintain, and tough enough to keep going when you’re working on your technique.
At 9 inches long, these knives have enough length and weight for proper rotation. Shorter knives can feel too light and spin unpredictably. The 0.7 lbs total for the pair gives you a satisfying throw with predictable flight. The balance point is designed for throwing, not for utility cutting — these are purpose-built.

Practical Details
Each knife is 9 inches long. 440 stainless steel with the BioHazard design in black and gold. Total weight for the set is 0.7 lbs. Comes with a nylon sheath that holds both knives. Practice on a proper target — soft wood rounds or commercial throwing targets work best. Don’t throw at plywood, treated lumber, or anything that might send a blade bouncing back at you.
Two knives, one target, and a new hobby — grab a set and start practicing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these good for a complete beginner?
Yes. The 9-inch length and 440 steel construction make them forgiving for new throwers. They’re heavy enough to rotate predictably and durable enough to survive the misses that come with learning. Start at about 8-10 feet from the target and adjust from there.
What kind of target should I use?
Soft wood rounds — like cross-sections of a log — work great. You can also buy commercial throwing targets. Avoid plywood, particle board, and hardwoods. Softer wood lets the blade stick instead of bouncing off, which is safer and better for the knives.
Can I sharpen these for regular knife use?
You can, but throwing knives are designed differently than utility knives. The edges are typically not as refined, and the balance is set up for throwing, not cutting. If you need a utility knife, get a utility knife. Keep these for what they’re built for.
