eurakoi

Klingon hand held weights, about 5kgs each, made of shrogh metal. The surface is decorated with carvings illustrating Klingon legends. A Klingon boy is traditionally given the eurakoi by his mother's eldest brother. The point of the eurakoi exercise is to experience pain by holding the weights in front at arm's length, shoulder level for 45 minutes. By meeting this pain head on, the boy then embraces it and finally laughs in it's ugly face.
