Overview

Black Shuriken - Foam Weapon

Epic Armourys Black Shuriken is 12 cm diameter knife perfect for samurais and ninjas alike. The Black Shuriken has four handpainted blades, each detailed to look like sharp metal. Each of the blades is hooked, making it easy to fish the shuriken out of a pouch, bag or pocket and throw it without taking your eye off the target. With its low-fantasy style, match this throwing weapon with most Epic Armoury products and characters. Use it as a weapon or neat prop--whatever fits your needs!

Made from coreless durable closed cell foam and finished with a strong latex coating, you can feel confident that this throwing weapon will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your kit.

All latex-coated weapons need a certain degree of maintenance. For this we recommend using maintenance silicone which can be purchased separately. Epic Armoury Maintenance Silicone is an easy, spray-on application, 100% pure and acid-free making it safe to apply. We recommend using Maintenance Silicone on a regular basis. It maintains the latex-coats flexibility and prevents it from drying out, keeping the product wear and tear resistant.

Store your latex weapons flat or on its pommel--NEVER on its tip. Use a simple sheet or towel lining to prevent it from touching a plastic or rubber surface to prevent your weapon from adhering to other products. Keep your weapons in a cool, dry environment.
Please Note: Handpainted Item - Color of weapon, including blade may vary

This weapon is made from foam and is designed for safe sport and roleplay with discretion. It also is quite suitable as a prop for costume and cosplay.

Q&A

Questions from the community

Ask a question
Q What is the Black Shuriken made of? Common Question
A — KOA

It's built from coreless closed-cell foam and finished with a durable latex coating, then hand-painted with four hooked blades detailed to look like sharp metal. This construction is designed for safe sport and roleplay rather than functioning as a real throwing weapon.

Q How big and how heavy is it? Common Question
A — KOA

The shuriken measures 4 5/8'' x 4 5/8'' (about 12 cm across) and weighs just 0.6 oz, making it light and easy to carry multiples of in a pouch or bag.

Q Why are the blades hooked instead of straight? Common Question
A — KOA

Each of the four blades has a hooked shape specifically so it catches on your fingers, letting you pull it out of a pouch, bag, or pocket and throw it quickly without breaking eye contact with your target.

Q Will the paint job be identical to the photos? Common Question
A — KOA

Each shuriken is hand-painted, so color and finish on the blades can vary slightly from piece to piece. This is normal for hand-finished latex LARP gear and part of its handmade character.

Q How do I take care of it so it lasts? Common Question
A — KOA

Latex-coated foam weapons like this one benefit from regular treatment with a maintenance silicone spray to keep the latex coat flexible and prevent it from drying out or cracking. Store it flat or resting on its pommel end, never balanced on its tip, and keep it in a cool, dry spot away from direct contact with plastic or rubber surfaces so it doesn't stick to them.

Q Is this suitable for actual combat sparring? Common Question
A — KOA

This shuriken is classified as LARP gear, built for safe sport and roleplay use with discretion, and doubles well as a costume or cosplay prop. It is not a functional weapon and should not be treated as a substitute for one.

Q What style or setting does this fit best? Common Question
A — KOA

With its low-fantasy look and samurai/ninja styling, it pairs naturally with most Epic Armoury gear and characters, whether you're building a ninja-themed kit or just want a throwing prop for a costume.
