If You're A Ninja Fan, You Should Know About Throwing Stars

Throwing stars are one of the most popular types of weapon in martial arts. At first glance, it would seem that these objects are simple metal darts with sharp, bulky ends used to induce pain or cause harm. This is not true. These stars have a long history reaching back to ancient China and being used for hunting. They functioned simply as a type of hunting tool which was meant to provide an easy way into breaking through bone or skin while protecting the user from any injuries inflicted upon him or her during the hunt

Ninja Stars As Part Of The Martial Arts The throwing stars found in the martial arts world today came about over a century ago, after Chinese craftsmen were forced to move to Japan for their jobs. This move not only resulted in the loss of practice materials but also an increase in demand for unique objects that were unique to China. The sudden influx of unique objects into Japan led to the creation of ninja stars that are not seen anywhere else.

The Japanese accepted these weapons and began to use them in their own style of martial arts. Their influence led to the Japanese people adopting these stars as a weapon which is still carried on today. If one looks closely, they will find that there is something extra about the throwing star in the Japanese style: a special curve in the middle of the object. This small but significant addition leads us to believe that there was something special about the original Chinese throwing stars, or perhaps more importantly, their creators.

One reasonable assumption that could be made, is that these throwing stars were created by at least one of the many craftsmen who migrated to Japan. A better description of the stars would be the metalwork style of either Xie Hong or Xie Shi. If you watch out for clues in that pattern, then you will find that this pattern has similarities to the metalwork that was done by these two craftsmen, who now live in Japan.

A Variety of Throwing Stars In ancient China , China was known as the country with one of the earliest forms of throwing stars. In fact, the Chinese invented it 5,000 years ago as an ornamentation. The way they created it was by taking copper and cutting it into the shape of a star. These stars were not made with any kind of metal, rather just sharpened hardened copper that could cause serious damage if thrown properly. They used to have it as their accessory, but then they changed the function of the stars for other functions.

Traditionally, the Chinese people who are interested in martial arts use stars as one of their training tools. The goal they have in mind is to master the throwing of the stars. The Chinese tradition was to start teaching their children about throwing stars at an early age. They took them to a training centre so that by the time they are at the age of ten, they will already have mastered this skill. From all over the world people are now brought up with different martial arts. The art form they are taught may have some sort of weaponry training involved, including ninja stars.

Throwing Stars- They Are Useful In Many Ways A ninja star is a type of weapon with a sharpened end and usually two or more sharp points on the opposite sides. The oldest known use of the weapon was in China, during the Shang Dynasty, where it was used as an arrowhead or spear point.

The biggest use for throwing stars is not combat but rather self-defense. They are popular among martial artists because they are easy to conceal and can be used to disarm an enemy before attacking them. They are also useful for people who do not have the time, money, or training to be a good fighter. Like most weapons, throwing stars are best used when you are in close range. These stars are usually made out of tempered steel, stainless steel, bronze/brass, aluminium or titanium. They can be found in various sizes ranging from 3 inches to over 6 inches.

Throwing stars are particularly popular with martial arts in the East because they were used

by Ninja warriors in feudal Japan and China during battles. They were used by the natives of Australia and Native Americans in North and South America and Hawaiians in Hawaii. They may have originated from throwing darts, however they never made it past the prototype stages. The earliest records of them date back to 5000 BC when they were used as arrowheads on the Mongolian steppes. They continued to be used throughout mediaeval China during their dynastic period, where they were called "yari".

In India, throwing stars were used by the Mughal empire and the martial arts of the Sena and Nagar caste. The Sena and Nagar used them in battle and had a large following of devotees. They were also widely distributed in Japan through the Kamakura period (1185–1333) and became a prominent weapon of ninja warriors; they were also used for defense or attack by samurai.

Summary, Throwing stars are seen in martial arts today, but did you know that they were popularised for centuries before their modern usage? The historical and modern popularity of these stars is an interesting look into the history of the weapon.
