It can be obtained in the "Relic Knuckles: Spharai" quest or the special Nomad Mog Bonanza 2010 (Rank 1) event.

The Sphairai are the Relic Weapons for
Monks. The Unfinished Sphairai are acquired and upgraded to the Sphairai in the quest
A Relic Reborn (Sphairai). They can then be upgraded to the Sphairai Zenith. A variant called the Sphairai Ultima is purchasable from vendors at Rhalgr's Reach and Kugane with an Ultima Totem obtained from
The Weapon's Refrain (Ultimate). This version uses the Sphairai's model as a base while also having particle effects reminiscent of the Ultima Weapon during the encounter.

Etymology[]
In around 400 BC, the sphairai were introduced in Ancient Greek boxing. The sphairai were very similar to himantes. The only notable difference was that they contained a padded interior when wrapped around the hands and the exterior of the thong was notably more rigid and hard.
