Re: Knife throwing ukemi.

Well, it's a useful skill to have when you drop your phaser while fighting the silcon based rock monster..... :-)

Actually, picking something off the floor while rolling is good practice and a fun challenge, especially for teaching kids. We have a soft foam knife (from BuJin) that we use for this. If you miss and fall on it it doesn't hurt!

Cheers,
Garth
