Shuriken is basically sword hidden in the hand, traditional Japanese Concealed weapon that was generally used for throwing, and sometimes stabbing or slashing. They are sharpened hand-held blades made from a variety of everyday items such as needles, nails, and knives, as well as coins, washers, and other flat plates of metal.
The art of wielding the shuriken is known as shurikenjutsu.
HOW TO THROW THE STAR
There are a number of styles for throwing the shuriken. In some, the star is held full in the hand so that it is hidden from the opponent's view. Another involves throwing more than one star at a time in a spread out pattern. One of the easier styles is to grip one point between thumb and forefinger and throw overhand or sidearm with a quick springing motion, somewaht like a frisbee. Overhand is more like a dart. The star will stick best if it is thrown so that it strikes the target board level with the grain of the wood.
THE GRIP: For short distances, hold the star by the end of the point . The turn of the star can be varied either by the force it is thrown or by changing the grip. A star held with the hand further up the point will make a slower turn.

JUDGING DISTANCES: It is very necessary that the star thrower learns to judge distances accurately. Unless he is able to do so, his throwing skill will have to develop entirely by trial and error. The beginner should start his practice and develop his individual "feel" for the star with a half-turn throw at this distance. Practice a uniform half-turn throw untill you can land your star in the target consistently.
TARGETS: For out-of-doors practice a good target can be fashioned from a 2-foot square of heavy board (soft pine boards are best), on which you can paint a bull's-eye or any other design or finish.
