The Shuriken by Throw Down is miniature metal yo-yo and their second release in the mid-to-late 2000s. It features a body made of carbon steel, along with a D-sized KonKave ball bearing and thick Dif Pads from Dif-e-Yo.
Compared to the other yo-yos in Throw Down's line-up, it is undersized, but plays as well as any regular-sized yo-yo. Because carbon steel tends to oxidize quickly, the yo-yo was coated in maganese phosphate and then clear coated, resulting in a unique finish.
Trivia[]
- The Shuriken is named after the throwing star weapons used by ninja assassins in Feudal Japan.
