So are you having troubles with Version 1 (4-Point) or Version 2 (8-Point) on this page? And with which step are you having troubles exactly?

There is a nice shuriken by Hideo Komatsu et al which looks exactly like this http://www.ninja-weapons.com/Library/We ... gami.shtml , but is made with a single square sheet of paper using the iso-area technique. Its diagram is availabe in Origami Tanteidan Convention #9.

Edited: Fixed link, it´s the same as the one in the post above.
