Shuriken: 4 point/
The Tesaihiryu clan is known for their utilization of mental prowess. The four point shuriken helps play a role in our deception. The four bladed and pointed star should be constructed out of one solid piece of metal. Starting as a perfect square and sharpening from point to point on each side. A natural curvature will result between points when machining is complete. A hole in the center provides for a more useful tool. The star can be concealed in the palm easily with a single point protruding under the forefinger as it lies flat against the palm. This allows stabbing and raking actions in close combat, and provides the Genin with throwing ability at the flip of the thumb. SAVE YOUR OVER HANDED THROWS FOR STRAIGHT BLADES! Utilize the flying star as if pulling it from the belt and pointing to the target. Some find a step with the same side throwing foot provides accuracy and distance. The key element to perfecting the shuriken is setting up a tall target and aiming to slice the edge with a single throw. When this is achieved, aim for a single point. Practice!
