TheOtherWiki has more details on the historical use of the sai [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sai_%28weapon%29 here.]]

* XenaWarriorPrincess's sidekick Gabrielle makes a point of fighting principally with a pair of Sai, starting in Season 5 and lasting until the end of the show. The exclusivity of the weapon to Gabrielle made them all the more cool.

* ''Film/TheMatrix Reloaded'': Neo used his powers to pull two sais off the wall and fight with them during his battle with the Merovingian's minions. He ends up using them to pin one of his assailants to the wall.

* ''GuildWars'' has sais as a type of dagger.

* ''DeadliestWarrior'': the Yakuza used Sais as a weapon.

In real life, sai are very rarely actually bladed weapons, and are primarily used in defense in order to disarm and/or break blades. In fiction, however, the middle prong (or all three) is usually sharpened into a makeshift dagger. (''Sometimes'' TruthInTelevision, but not normal practice.) Unusually, DualWielding a pair of sai ''is'' TruthInTelevision.
