Cyberpunk Sai

thingiverse

The Sai is a time-honored Japanese close combat tool. Its form features a blunt, fork-shaped metal club, with two curved tines (yoku) extending from the grip (tsuka). Various types of sai exist, boasting diverse tines for ensnaring and deflecting. This iteration presents the Sai in a cyberpunk-inspired guise. To maintain authenticity, I carefully preserved the proportions while infusing it with a futuristic makeover. Each part is printed separately, allowing you to print either one or both sais. The black sai boasts the Kanji character for death, while its white counterpart displays the Kanji symbol for life. Additionally, I designed a 2-pillar support system that can be attached to a board using glue, keeping the sais upright in style.
