5 Point Throwing Star – 4 Inch, Black Stainless Steel

Shuriken technique demands repetition, and repetition demands a tool that holds up to it. Whether you are working on release consistency at a backyard target or adding a well-made piece to a martial arts collection, the 5 Point Throwing Star delivers a traditional profile in black stainless steel at a price that makes regular practice realistic.

Who This Throwing Star Is For

This star is sized for the martial arts student who wants an entry point into shuriken work without committing to a high-end piece. It suits collectors building a traditional weapons display, hobbyists developing hand-eye coordination and release mechanics, and practitioners who want a dedicated practice tool separate from their display pieces. It is not a competition-grade blade and is not intended for hunting or combat use.

Is It the Right Fit for You?

Choose It If You Want

• A traditional 5-point profile with symmetrical balance for consistent flight

5 Point Throwing Star Features and Benefits

• 4-Inch Diameter: A mid-size profile that gives the star enough mass for a stable arc without becoming unwieldy during extended practice.
• Black Stainless Steel Construction: Resists corrosion and handles the repeated impact of target work without deforming at the points.
• 5-Point Symmetric Design: Five evenly spaced points distribute weight uniformly, producing predictable rotation and a repeatable release angle.
• Chrome Center Accent: The contrasting chrome finish at the center breaks up the black field, making the star easier to spot against a target surface or on the ground.
• Included Nylon Sheath: Covers all five points for safe handling, storage in a range bag, and legal transport where sheathed carry is required.
• Balanced Weight Distribution: The uniform geometry keeps the star from favoring one side, which shortens the learning curve for beginners working on flat throws.
• Affordable Practice Price: At under ten dollars, replacing a lost or damaged star does not disrupt a training budget.

Care

5 Point Throwing Star: Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 5 Point Throwing Star made of?

The star is made from black stainless steel with a chrome accent at the center. Stainless steel resists corrosion and holds up to repetitive target impact better than plated mild steel. Wipe it down after use and store it sheathed to maintain the finish over time.

What diameter is the 5 Point Throwing Star?

The star measures 4 inches in diameter. That size puts it in the mid-range for practice shurikens — large enough to generate stable rotation on a throw, compact enough to carry and store without bulk. The nylon sheath fits the 4-inch profile exactly.

Is a nylon sheath included?

Yes. One nylon sheath ships with every star. It covers all five points, which matters both for safe handling when you retrieve the star and for legal transport in jurisdictions that require sheathed carry of edged or pointed implements. Always sheath the star before placing it in a bag.

Is the 5 Point Throwing Star legal to own?

Ownership and carry laws for throwing stars vary significantly by state and, in some cases, by city. Several states restrict or ban them outright; others permit ownership but limit public carry. Check your state statutes and local ordinances before ordering. This product is sold for novelty, collection, and legal sporting practice only.
