Rusty Knifers Throwing Club
Welcome to the Rusty Knifers page.
Founded in 2017 with just three original members, our club has since grown to approximately 30 throwers. While not all members are active at all times, we maintain a steady membership as individuals come and go.
Within our group, we have a dedicated core of professional throwers, with around seven members currently competing at national and international levels. Since 2019, we have had participants in the British Nationals organized by Katta, and in 2024, five of our team members competed in the World Championship held in England, where we proudly brought home two silver and two bronze medals.
In 2025, five of us traveled to Prague for the World Championships there, and we are now preparing for next year’s competition, which will take place in Italy.
Our team is committed to promoting the sport of knife and axe throwing, and we are always eager to welcome new members. While competition is not a requirement for joining, it can certainly motivate you to improve.
We meet every Thursday evening from 5 PM to 9 PM, and you are welcome to join us. Please give us a call beforehand to let us know you’ll be attending

U.K.A.T (UNITED KNIFE & AXE THROWERS)
To unify the knife and axe throwing community with a focus on cooperation, promotion of precision throwing sports, friendly competition, mutual respect and Safety. League premise: U.K.A.T. Is a virtual league where solo and already established clubs/leagues can participate, and is a system that will allow throwers who can’t travel to attend National and International Competitions to compete and rank in a truly international venue, the internet. Each Season will be comprised of 2 weeks of Qualifiers (New competitors only) and 8 weeks of competition, with the top 6 sessions averaged at the end of the season to give the thrower’s Final Score. The top 3 Competitors in each Rank will throw off for top spot the following week. Only 6 sessions are required to be submitted allowing flexibility for attendance, weather, etc. Additionally Throwers will have the opportunity to earn bonus points by completing challenges throughout the season, which will include trick shots, mountain man games, and instinctive challenges. Why U.K.A.T. and why now? The reason is simple. While organized Knife and Axe throwing has has been around for a long time, and has been well supported by the likes BATL, AIM GAMES, IKTHOF etc, the growth in the past few years has been exponential. With the rapidly evolving bladed sports environment gaining more and more popularity, members of our community are gathering to protect, respect and pass along a rich history. U.K.A.T. hopes that by putting together all current aspects of organized throwing into one cohesive system it will promote fellowship, comradery, and community. We want to help nudge Knife and Axe throwing from an obscure backyard pastime to a mainstream legitimate sport that is accessible to to all, regardless of location, space limitations or implement preference. U.K.A.T. is an organization dedicated to the growth of organized throwing. League fees will go towards maintaining the website and social media, cash prizes and commissioning. U.K.A.T. will also provide qualified instructors to assist in staff training, set up and organization of sanctioned clubs and ranges
Could you help our team? Sponsorship opportunities
Our local club, Rusty Knifer Huddersfield Axe and Knife Throwing Club, is preparing for an exciting upcoming season. We are seeking sponsorship to support our athletes as they compete in events across the UK, as well as at the World Championships taking place from 23rd–25th July 2026 in Carpi, Italy.
Your sponsorship would directly assist with team development, equipment costs, and travel expenses. In return, your company logo would be prominently displayed on our team T-shirts, website, and social media platforms. We also offer a range of promotional opportunities to ensure meaningful visibility for our partners.
Please find the attached PowerPoint presentation, which includes further information about our club, our achievements, and the benefits of joining us as a sponsor.
Thank you very much for taking the time to consider our request.
Kind regards,
