The most ideal target is without discussion a slice of soft wet Pine Tree.
But to get this is not always easy-sometimes you can get fairly well slices from the Nursery on the corner.
With a safe background you can setup a very good practice environment in your garden-please make sure nobody can be hit when a miss happens.
The next and easiest option i got was a specially cardboardbox target.Very much costless compared to an Archery target.
This is fairly cheap and easy to get all the components.also easy to setup and store.
see the attached method and plans.
Knife Throwing Targets easy and low cost.
