Kunai Earrings

These earrings put the kunai where you can actually wear it, a fan of narrow tapered blades set around a round hub with one blade rising to the small ring the hook hangs from. The shape looks like something out of a ninja film, though the real kunai started out as a working tool. Japanese farmers and masons used it to dig, pry and scrape, the shinobi carried it for those same jobs, and the ring at the end of the handle was there to take a rope when the tool became a climbing aid. Keeping the ring as the hanging point is the honest detail in the design. Each blade is a slim diamond outlined in black with a white inlay, printed flat at about 26 by 28 mm and 2 mm thick, so the pair sits light on the ear and swings with the head. They print with no supports, the file is already set up in two colours of PLA, and a single colour still reads clean from across the room.
