How many types of paper shurikens are there?

Well, to be perfectly honest, no one will know unless someone searches the whole world for paper shuriken models. So far, I only know 7 ways to make paper hira-shuriken models ( the ones that you see on TV, like the ones in Naruto or something). The symmetrical four-pointed shuriken, the asymmetrical four-pointed shuriken, the eight-pointed shuriken, the transforming eight-pointed shuriken, the twelve-pointed shuriken, the sixteen-pointed shuriken, and the thirty-pointed shuriken. Google these seven models and you will be able to find tutorial videos somewhere, as I learnt 2 of the 7 models I know from tutorial videos I found on Google. I hope this helps =]
