Jack Dagger, otherwise known as the “King of Fling,” has tossed knives at everyone from potential Louisiana politicians looking for notoriety to targets (or possibly people) on one of those crazy super-surreal Japanese game shows. Hell, Dagger even has a world-record notch on his belt for speed throwing. Clearly, this guy and his love of strange sharpened steel hurling at several feet a second can only be characterized as one thing: “stabbingly awesome.”

Performing at Wayward Ways Vaudeville Variety Show June 12, 11 p.m., $10. Onyx Theatre, 732-7225.
