Its not quite a kusarigama, but kinda. the Kusarigama (the Gambol Shroud's chain-scythe form) is a slashing weapon based on wide swings of the sickle. The rope dart is basically a stabbing weapon, that's generally more mid-range (vs the kusarigama's longer range), and the Rope Dart is usually harder to predict. while the Kusarigama is a longer-ranged, more easily-predicted slashing weapon.

But you're right, they are a bit similar... Hmm...is it a kind of piercer? There's this Chinese weapon that might help inspire you based on the fighting style. It's called an Emeici. Fast, sharp, and concealable. Get creative with this if you can. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emeici
