sai-YOK kah-LEE
I'm not really an expert at Philippino dialects, so take that with a grain of salt.
2. I couldn't really answer that due to my lack of experience in any sort of knife throwing at all. I don't know what other sorts of "knife throwing arts" are out there. All I can say is that in Sayoc, it's trained in a way that I would have never have thought it could be trained. In other words, we train so that we can throw the knife at any range, from 20 feet away to face-to-face.
3. Hrm, I suppose it depends on a lot of things. As I said, I really have no clue about projectiling yet(haven't reached that level =T), but most throwing knives tend to be blade-heavy, and are "balanced" in such a way that it cuts down on rotation during flight. But any blade can be thrown in theory, it depends on how you throw it (can you compensate for range, weight, balance, etc.).

Sayoc is the name of the founder, PD.
Deus is correct in the pronuciation. Spoken like a true Pinoy.
