!! Knife magic !!

This is something i have been experimenting with for a while now. you see, my magic is very 'gentle' and 'quietly persuasive' as i have been scared to death for such a long time, i am now glad to be 'secure.' this means i may not be able to dominate the knife as i have respect for it and maybe it uses that to say no. the knife does not want to fly as then it thinks it will be cutting people for me, but all i really want to do is make it fly then make it dance with me, of course.

Find a knife with preferably a flat bottom, opposite to the point. place it on the floor on the flat side. this will make it stand, like you, yes? then stare at it and you should have a story revealed to you, understanding the story will show you that it wants this or that to happen for it to be enchanted or fly directly. with my 'gentle magic vibes' i plead with it to fly, sometimes getting the guts to demand it flies.

~ Failing to find a flat bottomed knife, just try to put it as if it were a guillotine and finished chopping. failing that you should just place it on the floor, blade off the ground. this will work differently for you if so, and i never do that - then you might have a different experience all together, okay?

Now, if you want to enchant it, you need to stare at it, and, go 'glassy eyed.' this will make it the center of your periphery or sight range, and it should change colors to indicate it's mood, shine when it agrees with you and likes you - the shine will be there even in the dark, just keep speaking to it and staring - and most recently, it looked like a candle, with the handle looking like a wick and the blade looking like a flame, of course. sometimes, it will also refute you by 'splitting in two.' this means it is breaking up with you, of course.

Now, we need numbers and colors. the right color to think of is green, as that is the heart chakra, which 'gives energy.' the right number to think of is [4444], or, to say them out loud, of course, just keep saying, in between your ramblings, four!

The way to get it to fly upwards is to make a cutting motion that goes upwards with your hand and arm. the right way to make it go down would be a flat hand pushing down onto it, i think. so far we have a plus sign, yes? this is common in insects with their wings out horizontal to their bodies.

Then, to make it turn it needs to imagine it as a sword, and mimic your hand gestures to the swings of a sword or knife. this will make it 'turn.' then you may make cutting motions again to make it go forwards, or, in the direction the point is, like a compass.

So, we are making progress towards a knife to dance with, and, then we can swap the knives for glow sticks, little luminous tubes that glow in the dark - cool huh? that i think is what this will lead to... imagine yourself dancing with glow sticks in tandem?

Now, if you want to bond with your knife, you should heat the blade over a candle a bit and then hold the blade to your body, preferably your hand. this will transmit energy from the blade to you, and you to the blade. this is a great way to bond.

Other ways to bond would be to blow on the blade. holding the knife by the handle would show your control over it, and it will feel your presence, and it will like it or it will not like it - watch out, you could hurt your eyes! don't hold it close to you!

Then, there is the way of enchantment. this would require four candles to be around the knife, lit, and then you need to hold it ad speak to it, looking for the blade to glow - as this is heat coming off it, yes?

What?

I mostly just use them to slice cheese and chicken, cut the end off my cigars, and occasionally skin a rabbit.


I used to teach knife fighting to interested groups as part of a side-biz... the first thing I'd always say is "What is rule one of knife fighting?" When the wrong answers died down I'd reply: "Rule one of knife fighting is Don't."


I'd probably say the same about dancing knives if I had any freaking idea what that meant...

Pics or it didn't happen.

Here you go Goshin

I have a nice set of five COLD STEEL Throwers that I enjoy throwing against my log target.
It is fun.

However, I have no idea what your mean in your first three posts.
I was completely confused and could not follow your train of thought.
