It should be 'Throwing kniVes' and 'THE hit chance'.

Maybe one of the classes could have a knife throwing build? Or make malicious blades increase hit chance of knife throws too?

I don't know if it would be OP, but I think Malicious Blades should make knife throws instant, or near-instant (i.e. Gun Kata shot after a dodge).

Seconded! The people want to see a knife throwing build, ye gods of Doom RL!

Not very doomish, but somewhat like this guy:

I think it would be OP. Consider an MMB/Juggler build; you can instantly equip a combat knife to hand from your inventory because it's keyed to the number 1, and with your idea instantly, or nearly so, throw it. This would let you unload knives at a rate of something like 10/sec.

But you can take only 23 knives with you. In case if you won't take any medkit or any other useful thing. More than that - knives can be found not very often and you can throw them only on four squares.
