Shirakami grip The grip for shuriken-do (spikes) illustrated by Shirakami Ikku-Ken in his book Shuriken-Do.
Kapr slider grip Remarkably similar to Shirakami's grip above is this favorite grip of Mr. Bob Karp, a slider that enables Bob to launch very long -- up to 35 feet -- half-turn throws with knives like the 12 inch Karp shown.
