Apache Throwing Star

This is a useful weapon if you are ever in a survival situation. You can keep it on your belt while gathering food (because the gatherer always beats the hunter) and throw it if you see something. It is made with minimal tools and materials. Its purpose is to stun and not to kill. If it punctures your target it's a bonus.

Step 1: Items

You will need paracord or you could use yucca rope (instructable coming soon), two sticks about equal size, and a knife

Step 2: Trim Sticks

Trim the sticks to an equal size

Step 3: Sharpen the Sticks

Step 4: Notch the Sticks

Make notches in the middle of the sticks, about halfway through. Fit the sticks together to make sure they fit

Step 5: Tie Together

lash the two sticks together and tie it off. If you want to, you can secure it together with pine pitch.
