Gaara carries around this giant calabash-shaped gourd covered in designs and filled with his chakra-infused sand which he can freely manipulate. Infused with his own chakra, Gaara controls this "specially-made sand" far easier than regular sand, though he can use this supply to break down the ground to increase the quantity of sand. The gourd and cork are also made from sand and can be broken down and used to perform techniques as well. This replica is smaller in scale for everyday use as a over the shoulder bag, the size of an average backpack.
