Throwing knives are actually very strong and any dex based build that has 1-2 feats to spare can get awesome utility from them. They are not meant as your main combat capability. And they are good at the role they currently have.

Throwing Knives are fine as is, originally the only weakness they had was being utterly demolished by robots and other enemies with high mech DT, but now that acids exist that issue has been rectified. The latest update lets you get corrosive acid pre DC from the university, so now you can easily deal with the many tanky expedition enemies.
