A Throwing Knife is a cheap throwing weapon. Unlike most throwing utilities, the damage of throwing knives scales with thrower's Throwing skill. Their damage starts at 8-9 with zero throwing skill and goes up to 40-100 with over 200 throwing skill.

In version 0.1.14.0, a number of throwing knife feats were introduced, throwing knives were reclassified as light weapons (dexterity reduces their AP cost) and their base AP cost was increased from 15 to 18.

Crafting
