Takoda Kuma [inventory]

Type of Equipment: tekko-kagi (ninja claws)
Description: The Kuma Claws are a semi-mechanical pair of devices designed as weapons specific to the clan they draw their name from. While not activated they can serve as protection for the back of the hands though their main function lies in their offensive potential. The claws are designed like those of a bear (though there are only three claws per hand) and slice like them. Able to cut cleanly through flesh they are perfect for close quarters combat. The activate the claws the wielder needs only to close their hand to squeeze a pressurized bar, springs and gear flip the claws around into position like a switchblade. Unlike most steel weapons though their potential for piercing metal is weak, the only way to break through metal is to stab and even then they can only pierce iron.
Ability (or Abilities): n/a
Durability: Equal to steel on the hardness scale
History of Item: These claws are the signature weapons of the greatest warriors of the Kuma clan, given only to a warrior of the bloodline after they have proven their worth in a true battle and emerged victorious. Throughout the history of the Hidden Forest village these claws have become well known on the part of it's defenses as well as a piece of its culture. That culture being the hall of stories, a cave located on the land of the Kuma clan, where skilled warriors granted these weapons come to sharpen their blades on the walls.

Type of Equipment: Tonfa
Description: This is a pair of two tonfa, otherwise known as billy clubs in some cultures. These weapons are crafted like a medium sized, solid metal rod that generally extends from just above the users knuckles to down near their elbow. Closer to one end of the rod is a handle that is crafted to be the same piece as the rod, this allows for a unique way to be used versus other weapons by holding them by the handle so that they follow the user's arm on the outside which can then be used as a way to block incoming weapons though they do nothing to reduce impact force. These specific tonfa are two and a half feet long and silver colored, being made of metal rather than the cheaper and more traditional wood variant. Decorations of black markings near the handle and as rings down the length of the weapon are present but do nothing to affect usage of the weapons.
Ability (or Abilities): n/a
Durability: Each of these weapons are made of solid titanium, able to easily block things on its level on the hardness scale while being able to break things lower than it in hardness and perfectly block other titanium items. These can be broken by stronger materials.
History of Item: These weapons were given to Takoda when he graduated the academy and became a genin. The gifting of a weapon is a tradition within the Kuma clan, which weapon is given is determined through observation of the child's fighting style and personality as they grow. Being one who was willing to get in close and deliver powerful finishing blows the tonfa were determined to be the perfect match for him.

Type of Equipment: Knee Pad
Description: A standard knee pad for normal types of organized fighting that fits around the wearer's leg at the knee to protect that area. This knee pad has been modified with steel plates being inserted into it to both reinforce it's strength for protection as well as giving it potential to be used as a blunt weapon when slammed into something. This knee pad is designed to hug the wearer's knee and twist and bend to not impair movement at all.
Ability (or Abilities): n/a
Durability: As durable as steel, able to withstand blows from things of that durability and below with ease while being able to be broken by things above it on the hardness scale.
History of Item: In the development of his fighting style involving mostly Taijutsu, Takoda found that by adding a few minor items to his natural body the effects they would produce would have a great effect. One of these items was the 'Turtle Back' a knee pad he acquired while living in Elkwood from the village's blacksmith after earning enough credit with him by running errands around town and even all the way back in Moigakure. He has since then worn it everywhere with few exceptions as he feels the support it gives his right leg to be productive even outside combat.
