Product Description
The Sai is a traditional piercing melee weapon used in Okinawa. The basic form of the weapon is that of a pointed, prong shaped metal baton, with two curved prongs projecting from the handle. While the sai did not originate in Okinawa, it was adopted and has become one of several signature weapons of the styles there.
This item is printed in White, Strong & Flexible plastic and as such, has a slightly rough surface texture out of the box. It is suggested that you use a fine grit sandpaper to gently sand down* this surface texture to a smooth finish before priming and painting your weapons.
There is a slight chance of the item arriving warped. This is due to heat and other factors in the printing process. If this happens, apply even heat with a hair dryer until the plastic softens, then gently reposition the pieces with your fingers. Allow it to cool in the corrected position to maintain the shape.
* Plastic sanding dust can be toxic if inhaled or ingested. Please wear appropriate safety gear such as goggles and breathing mask when sanding Quarter Scale Armory models.
