First Cut
First, cut 4 slits into the disk at 90 degrees from each other. Make sure not to cut all the way to the center.
Second Cut
Next, cut another 4 slits in between the first 4.
Bending
Now, bend every other leaf on the star.
Third Cut
Now cut points in the extending leaves.
Flattening
Now, hammer the star flat to make it easier to throw
Final Notes
Now you're done! Try googling for throwing techniques or something.
Since this metal is very thin, it is prone to bending when thrown at a hard surface.
If you have any sharp egdes like these, throw it away! If you're not careful the star will dig into your hand when you try to throw it.
