shuriken

according to media and the internet 
a shuriken has four blades 

but it would make more sense if it is four spikes 
since a spike is more likely to penetrate deeper than a blade 
when thrown 
especially when hitting a skull or body 

it's unpractical to throw a knife in a fight 
since it's a fixed distance 
that has to be a certain amount of length 
for the knife to spin 
so that the blade hits the target 
and it's different distances for different throwing techniques 
but still fixed distances 
and even if it's a no spin knife throw 
it's still a fixed distance 
which is unpractical in a fight 
when the target moves closer 
or moves farther away 

but it probably works to throw a spiked shuriken in a fight 
since a shuriken doesn't need to be thrown at a fixed distance 
because each of the four spikes are able to hit the target 
as the shuriken spins 
and can instead be thrown at variable distances 
when the target moves closer 
or farther away 

and if it's a shuriken with spikes instead of blades 
then it could be more weight 
which probably makes it easier to throw 

anyways 
it will probably be easier for beginners 
to learn to throw spiked shurikens 
instead of throwing knives 

and spiked shurikens could be feasible in self defence 
especially in close quarter situations
