Shinobi Small Throwing Knife Set

Shinobi Small Throwing Knife Set with Forearm Sheath

Speed and the Element of Surprise

This set includes three throwing knives with a length of 11.5 cm (approx. 4.5 inches), laser-cut from a single piece of stainless steel. Due to their small size and low weight (the entire set weighs only approx. 75 g), they fly very fast. They are ideal for short-distance throwing where you can use no-spin or half-spin techniques. The handle ends with a hole, which serves for balance but also allows for the attachment of a ribbon or cord for easier retrieval.

The key feature is the tactical nylon forearm sheath. Using elastic straps, you fasten it securely to your arm (under the sleeve of a hoodie or kimono). The knives are safely stored inside and ready for immediate deployment with a motion of your other hand. This element adds authenticity and fun to your training sessions.

How to Throw a Throwing Knife Like a Boss

Historical Insight: The Art of Hidden Weapons

Ninjas, or shinobi, were masters in using so-called kakushi buki—hidden weapons. Small blades that could be concealed in a sleeve, hairstyle, or folds of clothing often determined survival. They were not always used to eliminate an opponent. Often, they were used to cut ropes, create an escape route, or as a tool for distraction. This set interprets this ancient tradition of concealed carry in a modern way.

Care and Safety Guidelines

To ensure the knives and sheath last a long time, follow these rules:

• Target Selection: These knives are lightweight and have fine tips. They are intended exclusively for soft targets (foam boards, cardboard, very soft wood). Never throw at hard planks, plywood, or trees—there is a risk of the tip breaking or dangerous ricochets!
• Maintenance: The blackened finish protects the steel, but you should still clean the knives and keep them dry after use. Clean the nylon sheath occasionally to prevent dirt buildup.
• Safety: Even though they are small, they are sharp. Never throw in a direction where people or animals might be moving.
