ninja star

A shuriken, also known as a ninja star, is a Japanese concealed weapon used by samurai, ninja, or in martial arts. It’s typically a flat, bladed throwing weapon with three or more striking points. Shuriken were originally constructed in various shapes and were used as hidden daggers or metsubushi to distract or misdirect opponents1. Although they weren’t primarily designed to be lethal, they served to disable or distract attackers2. If you’re interested in making one yourself, there are origami tutorials available online for crafting paper ninja stars with a double-sided appearance3. 🌟🗡️
