The men's two handed javelin throw was a track and field athletics event held as part of the Athletics at the 1912 Summer Olympics programme.

It was the only appearance of the event at the Olympics, along with the other two handed throws.

The best distance with each hand was summed to give a total.

[2] Saaristo, who had taken the silver medal in the one-handed event, won the two-handed event, leading a Finnish medal sweep.

The three Finnish throwers qualified for the final, but being assured of medals, they mutually agreed to scratch the final and let the results stand: Olympic officials accepted their request.
