Shipping weight 0,17 kg??? One knife will weight about 50 grams! That's damn light for a throwing knife, even 7 inches long one - they will be thin, they will bend or break soon and they will not stick well, unless they will have a needle-like sharp points, which are dangerous... Stick with nails (pun intended)!

i had a set just like those, they bend and break really easily, and are too light.

for cardboard boxes, butterknives work fabulously.
Other fun things to throw at cardboard indoors unclude:
Compasses (the architechtural sort, not the navigating kind)
Heavy coins
Heavy Pens... pencis also work sort of
Small nails
Hmm.... I know that i've thrown a ton of miscelaneous objects at cardboard... but can't really remember more....

Rotary saw blades painted to look like CDs... Lips Sealed Lips Sealed Lips Sealed
I love them Grin.
If you throw at cardboard targets, you can throw steak knives, butter knives, forks, wire darts, metal pens, sharpened coins(or unsharpened if you have enough speed in your throwing motion), lenghts of music wire... the list is endless. Anything pointy or edgy can be stuck into cardboard.
