Etymology[]

The shuriken (手裏剣) was a common throwing weapon for ninja, and its name can mean "sword hidden in the hand", or "the sword inside of hand". They came in a variety of shapes, from flattened blades to the popular star shape.

Trivia[]

  • The sting shuriken has some influences of a woman's hairpin in its design. This could reference the kunoichi (くノ一), a group of female ninjas who would hide in plain sight.
