A five pointed shuriken with a simple koi fish design.
This is a "split" design, meaning one side is flat for easy printing. You can print two and glue the halves together, or just leave it as is. I printed mine in TPU and my kids like tossing them about the house.
A few notes for 3D printing:
Mine was printed at 0.2mm layer height, and I'm using a 0.5mm nozzle. I would recommend printing at 0.1mm if you want a smoother bevel on the edge of the blades. Because of my bigger nozzle, my line width is also a bit larger. This means I lost some detail on the koi designs, so if you find the same is happening for you- decrease your line width.
You can also drop the model below the build plate by a millimeter or two if you are planning on gluing the halves together. This will give you more accurate dimensions.
