Flying Thunder God Kunai

The are  utilised by Minato Namikaze in conjunction with his Space–Time Ninjutsu: the Flying Thunder God Technique. They differ in look from a standard kunai in that they have three blades instead of one and on the handle (which is thicker than normal) is the "marker" for Minato's teleportation ability; Minato also said that it's a bit heavier than a normal kunai. The prongs on them also makes it more deadly in melee fighting.

Minato gave one of these kunai to his pupil Kakashi Hatake, as a celebratory gift for his promotion to jōnin. During the war between Konohagakure and Iwagakure, the ninja from the former threw these kunai all over the battlefield, in order for Minato to teleport all over the place to slay his enemies almost instantly as well as making it difficult for the enemy to predict where it would teleport to next. He also kept several of these blades at his safe house, so he could teleport there quickly when necessary.

Trivia

 * It is implied that touching the kunai activates a Space–Time Ninjutsu, like Minato did to the Nine-Tails' attack with a Space–Time Barrier after using hand-signs.
 * Although unnamed in the manga, they were named by Minato in Naruto Shippūden 4: The Lost Tower.
