Full description and what we offer
Blade & Timber started with a simple mission in 2017: axe throwing for all. Since then, they've coached hundreds of thousands of guests through their first bullseye and thrown millions total. The company now operates in four locations—Lawrence, Kansas City, Seattle, and Honolulu—each with its own identity and lane count.
"We gather people for shared experiences and make it easy to have fun."
Each axe throwing session runs 90 minutes. Here's how it works:
1. Book a lane - Online with a credit card (no charge until you arrive) or call ahead 2. Sign waivers - Standard liability paperwork 3. Show up - Arrive in closed-toe shoes 4. Get coached - Axe Safety-certified coaches provide one-on-one training before your first throw, covering proper technique and safety protocols 5. Throw - Work toward your first bullseye with guidance throughout
Minimum age varies by location: 10 years old in Kansas City and Seattle, 14 years old in Honolulu. All minors under 18 need parent/guardian supervision.
Every location features The Whetstone Bar—axe throwing meets craft cocktails. Full bar offerings include: - Signature cocktails - Wine and spirits - Local craft beers at each location - Robust appetizer menu with shareables

Blade & Timber handles parties up to 200 people. Contact their party team for groups of 19+. Private event spaces and customizable hours available.
Blade & Timber was created by the same team behind Breakout KC Escape Games, Breakout Waikiki, and Sinkers Lounge Mini Golf Cocktail Bar—so entertainment experience runs deep.
