Catching

Snatching a thrown knife out of the air without harm
requires the utmost mastery, and is not recommended to
anyone but Ninjitsu masters. This technique should not be
practiced until one’s dodging and blocking skills are flawless.
Evade the knife first, and try to pinch or snatch the spinning
handle out of the air as it goes by.
Treating Throwing Knife Injuries
Whether in practice or in actual combat, throwing knife
injuries may result. A Ninja must be prepared for any
situation, even for the eventuality that despite all his
training, he may become wounded. Treat any wound
seriously and take care of it as soon as possible. Even with
small wounds there is always the chance of poison or
infection. Remember that the best treatment is prevention;
avoid becoming a casualty. Safety must always be main-
tained to the highest degree possible.
