Chakra Blades


 * Name: Chakra Enhanced Trench Knives
 * Wielders: Asuma Sarutobi, Shikamaru Nara
 * Debut (Anime): Naruto Episode 81
 * Debut (Manga): Chapter 141

A highly uniquely-designed trench knife, these blades are worn like Brass knuckles, but each one has a sharpened zig-zag 'tooth' over each knuckle, and a blade coming out of one end. Asuma couples these knives with his taijutsu skills to great effect, such that he can take out nine Sound ninja in a matter of seconds. The knives can be infused with elemental chakra to produce added effects. When infused with wind-natured chakra through 'chakra flow', it can easily pierce through stone. When infused with Shikamaru's shadow chakra, it can immobilize anyone whose shadow it pierces. The knives are currently in the hands of Shikamaru.
