This shuriken comes from the misty and shadowed realm of the Komuso Ryu Ninja. Formed in the shape of their ryu crest or mon, this crescent moon shaped shuriken has a spread of 4 1/2" between the points, and a sharpened outer edge to slice its target on impact. Shuriken like this, historically, were never really designed to "stick" in an opponent, but intended to slow them down or make them hesitate in combat, giving the thrower the edge in the fight. Rarely lethal to the victim, unless smeared with a poison first, the so called "tonki arsenal" was replete with items such as this, along with caltrops, throwing spikes, stars, and other such "tools of the trade" that a ninja might carry on a mission. Designed personally by Adam Davis. Precision laser cut from 1018 hot rolled steel, they will absorb years of punishment. Easily straightened if bent or otherwise damaged during use, and readily re-sharpened if required, this is truly a "bad moon on the rise", for the opponent that faces its wielder!
