I experienced that the knives broke after 30 minutes of use and only withstood 50 throws before all 3 broke. I wasn't trying to power throw them, but they are of poor quality. Based on my experience, I suggest not buying them.

82% liked the comfortable and balanced handle, but 18% found it slippery
The handle design of the hatchets makes it difficult for me to throw.
The handle edges of the axes are very sharp and tend to leave paper-like cuts on my hands and fingers.
I find the hard edges on the handles of the knives uncomfortable to grip and they can cause burs and slivers to pop up when they clang together. I suggest filing down the handles to make them more rounded and comfortable to grip.

77% appreciated the lightweight and compact design, although 23% found it too heavy
I suggest using orange Gorilla tape around the handle edges of the knives to make them more portable while camping. This reduces the burs/slivers from happening and helps to locate the knives if they get lost in the grass or bushes.
The knives have a tuning fork design, which makes them sound like a crash of thunder and lightning when they miss.
71% appreciated the built-in safety features, although 29% found them insufficient
I emphasized the importance of safety when using the axes and knives. It is essential to exercise proper caution and follow safety guidelines.
I advise using proper caution and following safety guidelines when using axes and knives to ensure safety.
I advise wearing protection and warning others around when using these throwers as they can be very dangerous when they ricochet.
I have noticed that the knives have hard edges on their handles which can cause burs and slivers. This can be dangerous if they go into my hands/fingers or cut me up when I throw. I suggest filing down the handles to make them a bit rounded off to avoid this problem.
The knife snapped in two after striking the log, indicating that its safety features are not up to the mark.
The knives have hard edges on the handles which can cause burs and slivers if they clang together. This can be hazardous if they go into my hands/fingers or cut me when I throw them.
Knives and axes should be built to withstand being thrown against a piece of wood.
I suggest sharpening the blade a bit, but the beveling is already good.
