This day is dedicated to those around the globe who share our passion for knife throwing. The members of the World Knife Throwing League have this goal in mind—to raise awareness of the activity and sport. While knife throwing has been around for many years, we’ve been able to bring this activity to the mainstream on ESPN and across WKTL affiliated venues!

This sport is seriously fun and offbeat—it’s an inclusive activity everyone can enjoy.

This year to help get more people out throwing knives, we’re doing an online challenge!

Who Can Stack the Most Knives on the Target

For this challenge, we’ll be looking for people to make a video of them throwing as many knives into the 5 or 6 point zone on the target within 30 seconds with no retrieval.

That’s it!
