Richard Sunderland
I started throwing knives four years ago. At that time I thought all knife throwing happened in circuses. I soon discovered Knife Club via the internet and my interest was piqued. I learned about Tournament Knife Throwing, Tomahawk Throwing and Mountain Man, as well as making some great new friends. I have since competed in the USA and Europe and have built my own practice range in the garden.
My other main interests are photography, travel and mountains and I am the ‘technical support’ for this website.

Last year I attained Expert Class as a knife thrower and I got my first Expert Class win in New Jersey this year with an almost record-breaking score that puts me number 2 in the IKTHOF ranking for Tomahawks. In August 2010 I won all but one of the events in the first UK Knife/Axe/Tomahawk Throwing Tournament. In October 2010 I’ll be heading over to Austin, TX again for the World Championships.
