This is THE place to try axe throwing…read more We stopped here on a whim with our kiddo after touring K-State. To be honest, I wasn't super excited at first. We've been to maybe six different axe throwing places, and it can be a struggle. The axe too often pings off the board, and the game moves too slowly or gets repetitive. That was not the case at Manhatchet. The owner, James, takes a few minutes with each group to help fine-tune your throwing technique. We all hit a bull's-eye within our first few practice throws and were ready to go. Each lane has a soft wood backboard, so the axe usually sticks. There are at least a dozen different games that pair with an iPad for each group. We really liked Bowling and Battleship. We highly recommend this place! All other axe throwing shops should take notes.

We played many different games of which different targets are projected onto the backboard. We played tic-tax-toe, battleship, little targets and big targets. Our kids loved the popcorn machine and we purchased beers and sodas. I would definitely recommend Manhatche

We reserved a lane and had Jeremy assisting us so we halfway knew what we were doing. Jeremy taught us everything from how and where to stand, how to hold it, and taught us games to play. He even helped us remember to take pictures and videos, which we usually realize after the fact that we should have done that. Super fun experience!

My family and I went to Blade & Timber this weekend for Father's Day - honestly it felt like we…read morewere running low on ideas for family activities, and so we decided to give this a try. I'm glad we did - it was a fun, casual, easy outing to celebrate the holiday. The reason for the average review is mostly for the price. We paid $112 for 4 people for an hour and a half, which feels steep to me - this is definitely not something I'd want to pay for outside of a special occasion. Additionally, they request tips for your coach/server on not just your food/drink bill - but on the bill for the entire experience, making your tip at least $25 on top of your total. If you order drinks, you're not escaping here for under $200. I want our server to be fairly tipped, but tipping that much more for what was essentially a 5-minute how-to at the beginning of our experience feels a little rich. All that said, our coach was very friendly. The facility is well-maintained and clean. I do like the layout, with tables at the end of each lane where you can sit with your party. They have a nice booklet of suggested games to try - which really help give some structure to what would otherwise be an hour and a half of throwing an axe. It is also nice that they still allow you up to 3 alcoholic beverages while throwing weapons - haha. The 1.5 hour session is the perfect amount of time - it allowed just to play 2 full games, and throw around for a while. In the last 15 minutes or so, we were feeling like we definitely had our fill. Axe-throwing is really something you only need to do once, or maybe every couple of years, but we had a good time.

There were plenty of other groups there at the same time as us, but we all had more than enough space to hang out and throw.
