How to: Thumbspin knife trick, and Reverse 180 spin preview Karambit Knife Fighting

UPDATE: Not sure why the video seems so laggy/choppy. If you’d like to see me recap it and upload a new version, let me know

Here’s a how to I got a request for, but took forever to get to. Again, it’s easier and safer to practice with a pen.

Also, this video has a preview of a reverse 180 knife spin that I haven’t quite mastered.

How to do the thumbspin:
1. Grip the knife (or pen) between your thumb and middle finger.

2. With your middle finger, push the knife toward your wrist.

3. The knife will spin after reaching a certain point. You’re trying to spin it over your thumb’s knuckle.

4. Catch the knife with your index finger once the spin is complete.

This trick is difficult to do slower, because it won’t spin properly. Hopefully you get the idea.

Any questions are welcome, let me know in the comments if you wanna see a how to of the reverse 180 spin.

The song is called Guitar sound by Youtube’s own Ronald Jenkees. Check him out!
