That's right. Paper shurikens. Does anyone else remember making them during class? I learned the trade about two years ago, and I picked up the craft again. Really, these guys were beasts that could be thrown at ninja speed(pun intended).
So I ask; have you made any paper shurikens lately, or ever? Maybe you have a cool sixteen pointed star lying around somewhere?

Text/picture guide to basic paper shurikens here.
Video guide here.

I made these two babies a few hours ago. Pardon the light, but it's the only light I have at the moment.

I've never made them, but they seem like a pretty fun time waster.

You know, you can just reinforce them with staples and they'll fly pretty well. That's what I did to the corners; it makes them far more accurate.

I went through a time in elementary school where I made a lot of them. I'd often sell them and clean my classmates of their lunch money. My teacher eventually made me stop because of that.

I never made them because I didn't know how. I always preferred to talk to someone or make paper airplanes in my spare time. Sure, shurikens are cool... but paper airplanes can fly.
