Advice On Making Throwing Knives

I've just started throwing knives and would like to make my own. I was hoping for advice on what to use and how to make my throwing knives.

What type steel should I use?
Should I forge them or do stock removal?
Do I heat treat them and if YES what do you recommend for the suggested steels?

Please feel free to email me at joe.schwatka@navy.mil

Thank you for any and all help!

Joe
