Black 4 pc throwing stars in pouch.
A throwing star, also known as a ninja star or shuriken, is a small, often metal, object designed to be thrown as a weapon. Historically, shuriken were used for distraction and concealment, and while some could be coated with poison, they were primarily intended to be thrown at an opponent to create an opportunity for other attacks or escape. The name “throwing star” comes from the association with ninjas, although they were not exclusively used by them.
