As per subject heading, I'm looking for an item that can replenish my shuriken quickly. There are quivers, but I can't find anything for shuriken per se.
With haste and ki my ninja can throw 3-5 per round. And the returning thing is tricky.
I'm thinking a spring-loaded, replenishing wrist sheath, designed for multiple shuriken would be awesome. Does such a thing already exist somewhere?
Also abundant ammunition replenishes any non-magical ammunition, like masterwork. Would that also include cold iron and silver shuriken?
And... abundant ammunition states that it stacks with magical weapon spells cast... so does versatile weapon work?
If such an item doesn't already exist, how would crafting it be priced?
A slotless item with (spring-loaded wrist sheath on top of bracers)
abundant ammunition (1x day)
magic weapon (1x day)
and/or
slotless
abundant ammunition permanent
magic weapon (1x day)
Thanks for any help.

Efficient quiver. Shurikens count as ammo, and as such can be put into the efficient quiver to quickly pull out and use. Have abundant ammunition permanent on the efficient quiver, and now you get any shrikes you want without searching, and get multiples of it the following rounds.
To answer your questions: the abundant ammunition would include replenishing cold iron, adamantine, or silver, since they are not magical. Some might say that even poisoned arrows get recreated from the spell, because poison is non-magical.

You would need your GM to permit custom crafting, in which case a slotted item of abundant ammunition would be 2000 GP, 4000 unslotted.
Created one in my current game with the GM's OK for our gunslinger, a bandolier of endless ammunition :-)
Yes, it handles special ammunition (cold iron, adamantine)
You would need quickdraw to use it effectively for thrown ammunition. And yes, you can use spell enhancements.
(Abundant ammunition + Daybreak arrow + gunslinger + ghouls=fun!)

That's not actually correct. Ammunition is always drawn as a free action.
Most thrown weapons aren't ammunition though - shuriken are the only ones, making them the only thrown weapons that you can throw at your full attack rate without quickdraw.

Fair question, but the star-shaped shuriken popular in ninja films are not the only shape from history; there were shuriken that were basically thrown metal spikes, and spikes are definitely the same general shape as an arrow.
