Throwing stars.. what kind will you get?

Did you ever get the book on how to hypnotize women?.....it was there with all that stuff...

I ordered that book. And it works too. I was amazed. I actually did hypnotize one into marrying me. I should have thought about it more before trying it out. <grin>

Is Oriental Gifts still open at Washington Square? That's where I bought my throwing starts back in the '80s.

That's where I used to get mine also....LOL

I think the bigger question is "Is Washington Square Mall even open anymore?"

We have two laser cutters at work, and we always have scrap stainless laying around, I might have to make a few.

Bring back Jarts!! Anything less is a sissy law!
More serious, especially for the property owners, a 1985 "ninja star" will most definitely bounce off house siding and through a garage service-door window. Then suddenly my neighbor thinks the only kid in the neighborhood that dresses as a ninja might be responsible. The nerve of some people to assume.

As Providence would have it, playing Jarts this weekend!

Bags of corn tossed across a board into a hole is fun and all. I have no doubt.

Jarts is more fun. It's a cross between horse shoes and darts.

YMMV of course.

Yes it is, a few doctors offices, a bar, an insurance company and a noble Roman’s pizza are all that’s left.

I used to ride my bike to jay sales flea market to buy my throwing stars, yes they’re still in business and yes they still sell them

You haven't truly lived until you've played mumblypeg with Jarts!

The 1st of July is the day throwing stars become legal, AND it's my parent's 62nd wedding anniversary. 25 is silver, 50 is gold, 62 is... throwing stars!!

Something tells me I shouldn't get them throwing stars.

Could make cutting the cake an interesting event!

Well, guess I've lived then!



I recall Dad was none too happy...lived through that too!

Damn...I've not thought of mumblypeg for a LONG time!

I like to throw this star out of a window...40 stories up

I remember messing with Jarts, they would bury themselves quite happily in the side of a soft willow tree.

Should I wait till the first to order, or order a few days in advance, knowing the shipping companies will be slow...

I have worked with the online vendor https://www.karatemart.com/ to make sure they know the Indiana law has been repealed and they have removed the prohibition on Indiana shipping.

Now I realize that the law doesn't go into effect until July 1st, but the vendor said that since they are in Arizona. All shipping will end up with the thing getting here after July 1st. He has blocked out overnight shipping until June 30th.

That was the only one I had any luck with online. It turns out so many sites that sell these are really skinned shils for one vendor. They never responded to me. All the shils have this same notice.
