You don’t need to make two threads. Especially when they’re identical.

Well Dark Magic is about average size, Hitman is on the small end and the Black Knight feels huge to me. If you had Freehand then a Black Knight would probably feel super heavy to you, so I would put that one out of question.

Hitman is what I would prefer, seeing as I like somewhat rounded rims and smaller yoyos. Dark Magic has pointier rims and is significantly larger than the Hitman.

Although, if your looking for a throw thats new to you so you can try some different stuff then I’d go with a Dark Magic. Seeing as a Hitman would have rounded rims like your Freehand.

All in all, either one is a fantastic choice. Just depends, if you want something totally new, go with a Dark Magic, if you want something a little similiar to you Freehand go with a Hitman.

Hope I was of use. Connor.
