Indoor Throwing Fun: Needle Shuriken

Fun throwing sharp objects! No need to buy anything. Please don't hurt your loved ones, especially pets. These guys can do some damage! They are 8" long needle shuriken I made from an old clothes hanger. I use a target made from cardboard. They are a challenge to throw because they are thin and light, but a good fun when you get the hang of it. Best of all, it costs $0!

you said you used an aluminum coat hanger? that sounds really light weight. I actually have a few I made that look very similar to yours, I used some welding rod I had lying around, they are surprisingly tough. I don't throw them much anymore though, I kept loosing them in my lawn :p

@hathegkla These are light, but they still hit pretty hard. My target is 6 layers thick in the middle. I like this weight as it limits the damage these shuriken can do inside the house. Happy throwing!

@theWZZA maybe they aren't aluminum? I watched the video again and they seem to be hitting pretty hard, harder than I would expect aluminum to hit anyway. either way they are fun as hell to throw and definitely good for indoor throwing. cheers!

@hathegkla Well, based on how the material cut, files and bends, my best guess is aluminum, but it doesn't matter what material it is. I would just use whatever you can find around the house or the junk heap and sharpen them and have fun. Maybe old bike spokes?
