It took me a month to make this scale replica of Yuffie's weapon, which I presented as a birthday present to the girl who was to play our Yuffie. I put some extra special work into this weapon since it was for someone special; behind the blue gem is inscribed: "For Emily", purple: "From Stephen", red: "5-10-98". It's made of wood layered in thick sheet metal; it's definitely sturdy and balanced enough to be thrown and injure someone!
