Re: Throwing knives / Spikes

While throwing knives, may be a fun pastime, using them as defensive weapons, would not be my first choice. Throwing knives at a stationary, target, a prescribed distance away, you could be come proficient with enough practice, but people very seldom attack, from a set distance, and very seldom do they stand still, especially if they see something thrown at them. Not only that, you are throwing away a potential weapon, that may come back at you. JMHO

I'm thinking they might want to look in a computer bag for food and whatnot so my Sub 2000 might not work. And the kids really like this particular theater.

Is it legal to possess throwing knives and / or throwing spikes in Texas if I am not carrying a handgun with my LTC?

Is it possible to learn to use these effectively for typical SD distances inside a theater (approx. 25 yards max)?

I could just rely on my EDC knife (not thowing), but the seats close to the entrances are not the best.

Do they check women's purses, for "food and whatnot"? A backpack, or computer bag should be no different (sexual discrimination and all that)

If you are dead set on going to a theater, who wants to set up criminal friendly environments, I suggest the Sub 2000, over any type of fantasy throwing knives, or stars. They work great in Bruce Lee movies, but they can't be very effective at stopping a threat armed with a firearm. My kids, would have to start liking another theater. JMHO
