SHURIKEN
SMITHS
This page is dedicated to private individuals who hand
make shuriken as a hobby, craft, or small business concern.
I will not be
listing commercial sites which sell, machine made, mass produced and often less
than authentic shuriken, along with their selections of other fake martial arts
training weapons etc.
If
you are a smith who would like to have your work shown here, please send some
pictures of your work and a short background to what you do. I will include it
here if I consider it to be appropriate to this page.

Daniel
BOWLEY - Australia
Daniel is a Bujinkan practitioner and an amateur smith
interested in both traditional weapon design and experimenting with new designs.
His work is based on that of a practitioner of weapon arts, so his pieces are
