I bought this starting out with minimal expectations, later finding out its secrets...i was in awe ,the blade was stainless steel and sharp( my fav.), the throwing knife was exceptionally accurate (practice boys...you'll get it).... but the only regrets i have about buying this piece of weaponry is in the shuriken and in the ''paper weight''. The shuriken are like little pieces of hardened play dough squeezed out of one of the molds ...don't even bother sharpening them, their still not worth the time and energy, and the design makes it hard to make the shuriken stay on the hand guard, as well as take them off. The last thing is that stupid piece of steel that you will find...it looks lethal...if you like flying pieces of solid steel... Overall get this beauty...its for sure a keeper!
