Hmm, saw that ad on YTMND.

Finally, I can bring my own weapons.

Be happy to be paid, but still, time travel.

...my safety is for sure not guarenteed.

Exacto blades are really fricken sharp. It would suck to get one of those things thrown at you. Just think how stupid it'd be if you threw it weird and it came back like a boomerang.

Dude. I need to get a boomerang. I haven't had one of those since I was like 7. They were fun.

i could never throw a boomerang right. if you do, do they actually come back to you?

Yeah. Takes some practice. Sometimes you might have to move a few steps to the left or right to catch it, but it is possible to get it to come directly back.

Wow...that just doesn't make much sense. Why would you make one of those things? You might as well make a bunch of paper stars so you can actually have little office wars.

You don't need to worry about it coming back to you like a boomerang, it'll never happen without a massive external force (like hurricane winds).

I remember seeing a different tutorial in which you spot welded utility knife blades, it looked a lot sturdier.

EDIT: Here.

Wow, The revies on these stars are awful. Just a bunch of safety nuts saying that people are going to make these and go on a rampage.

I'm too clumsy to even think about making something like this.

Hehe, that's pretty neat. Too bad I have REAL shuriken already! And kunai....and katana......and rattan nunchaku......okay, enough of my "personal life".

those things look awesome, this could be good leverage when my sister get's outta line! actually, i already hit her in the head with one of those "glow-in-the-dark" stars that you put on your ceiling...it dented her head. i still have it just in case.
