(苦無, Kunai- an ancient kind of gardening tool or trowel. Two variations are the short kunai (少苦無, shō-kunai?) and the big kunai (大苦無, dai-kunai?) It is a good example of a very basic tool which, in the hands of a martial arts expert, could be used as a multi-functional weapon.[1] The kunai was conventionally wrought of iron, not steel, cheaply forged and unpolished. The size of most kunai ranged from 20 cm to 60 cm, with the average at 40 cm. The kunai was used by common folk as multi-purpose gardening tools and by workers of stone and masonry. The kunai is not a knife, but something more similar to a crowbar. The blade was soft iron and unsharpened because the edges were used to smash plaster and wood, to dig holes and to pry. Normally only the tip would have been sharpened. Kunai normally had a leaf-shaped blade and a handle with a ring on the pommel for attaching a rope. This would allow the kunai's handle to be wrapped to act as a grip, or when used as a weapon; to be strapped to a stick as an expedient spear, to be tied to the body for concealment, or to use as an anchor or piton. Contrary to popular belief, they were not designed to be used primarily as throwing weapons, though they can be thrown and cause damage. Instead, they are a thrusting and stabbing implement.

I modified the Trench Viper from the kunai. Made for a Marine Corp Sniper,to fit the needs for combat on missions behind enemy lines. The Trench Viper has been sharpened on one side. Not just for digging, but reinforced to break concrete blocks,bricks or what ever or who ever the trench viper will encounter in the field. The handle is hand wrapped from hand braided 1000 pd test cord. Glued with waterproof epoxy seal.It will never come apart,or I will fix for free just pay shipping. Sharpening is just $10.00 + shipping.
