This video was unlisted for a time in planning for an overhaul. Since that is currently on hold, I am making this video public again in the meantime. This is not a new video

Disclaimer: Due to the dangers and potential injuries associated with knife throwing, any of your attempts to perform actions demonstrated in this video are done at your own risk.

What is presented here is barely the tip of the iceberg. For full training, contact Mikhail Belyaev (one of the original students under the founder, the late Yuri Fedin) or Olga Fedina, daughter of the founder.

What is Skanf knife throwing? It is a method. A style that focuses on efficiently launching the knife like an arrow, appearing effortless and at times unbelievable that such power could be generated from so little body movement. Its foundations is based on waves, using centrifugal forces to generate such energy.

Skanf is neither superior nor inferior to other styles of no-spin throwing. It is simply different. How effective it is depends on you, your training discipline, and your ability to adapt it to fit your own movements.

This tutorial/demonstration is based on my understanding of Skanf and uses the side-arm variation of the throw. Please keep in mind Skanf has overhand, underhand, backhand, from the table, from the ground, and from behind variations of throwing... and that's just only part of the system.

As with any sport or activity, stop practicing and take a rest if you feel any pain, especially in your joints. They might say "no pain, no gain" but injuries also are indicators you may be doing something incorrectly such as using bad form.
