Sand Gourd

Gaara carries around a giant calabash-shaped gourd with designs all over it filled with his chakra-infused sand, that he can freely manipulate. Both the gourd and cork are also made from sand and can be broken down and used to perform techniques as well. Kiba Inuzuka noted that the sand from the gourd has a strong stench of blood, due to the number of people Gaara has killed with it.
