Shuriken

The informations given above are for a quantity of 5 shuriken.

A shuriken is a special monk weapon. This designation gives a monk (see Chapter 3: Classes) wielding shuriken special options. A shuriken can’t be used as a melee weapon.

Although they are thrown weapons, shuriken are treated as ammunition for the purposes of drawing them, crafting masterwork or otherwise special versions of them (see Masterwork Weapons, below), and what happens to them after they are thrown.
