Nicola ‘Manc Tank’ Wetherill

I first tried knife and axe throwing at a day throw with Mark Bond at Milton Keynes and loved every minute of it, I then started regular visits at Pontefract with John Taylor and the rest of the Ponte crew about a year and a half ago, mainly throwing tomahawks and the occasional knife, until I found my perfect knives (Daniel Mosley‘s “Beast from the East”), and from then on I was hooked (with a focus of beating my other half at everything).
