A minimal guard version of the Pocket Sai. The guards have been reduced to minimum amount of grip for blade retraction.

 This version of UPK-D1 Pocket Sai has a HARDENED STAINLESS STEEL Blade and a Composite Polymer Handle

Hybrid Thrower - The combo of a hardened stainless blade with a Polymer handle provides a tough throwable Pocket Sai for practice and training at a reduced cost. A blade made in 440A high carbon martensitic stainless steel with a hardness of HRC40-44 makes a tough resilient stainless made for throwing and can take extreme abuse offering bending where harder alloys will break. This combination is a notable upgrade from the Full Polymer trainer.
