About the Weapon

A slightly curved oriental two-handed blade, the Katana is quite popular and easily recognizable. Usually measuring somewhere between twenty-four and twenty-eight inches, the sword is often made of folded metal - that is, the metal is folded over and over as it is forged in a method called pattern welding. Though a competent dueling weapon, it is a poor armor piercing sword due to the thickness of the blade and due to the fact it is relatively awkward to make an effective thrust due to the curvature and the need for two hands upon the hilt; as such, it is rarely seen on the battlefield and usually kept as a side arm or status symbol.
