Step 5Throwing

throwing
A light tensing of the fingers and wrists at the moment of release will create the proper feel for a straight and accurate throw. Work on developing the feeling that the blade seems to slip out of your hand by itself, rather than the feeling of flinging or slamming the shuriken into the target with the muscles of the arm... ...The most common mistake encountered in shuriken practice throwing is the use of flinging arm and a solid stance to project the missiles at their target. As the arm fans out horizontally across the midsection, the hand must release the blade at precisely the correct degree of the flat arc, with just the right timing, when throwing in the this manner.

 well, this one is much simpler than most. if you were going into battle in like, 20 minutes, i doubt you would have time to cut metal, and and sand  it. you could make a good number of these in that time, and kick some butt.
