Katana

Katana, also commonly referred to as samurai's sword and samurai sword, is a weapon in the Fallout 3 add-on Mothership Zeta and in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Gun Runners' Arsenal.

Katana


 A katana is a type of Japanese sword with a blade length greater than 23.6-28.7 inches (60-73 centimeters) and characterized by its distinctive appearance: a curved, slender, single edged blade, circular or squared guard, and long grip to accommodate two hands. It's also commonly referred to as a "samurai sword" or "samurai's sword" since it was a weapon used by samurai and was the symbol of the samurai caste.

The katana became renowned for its sharpness and cutting ability and its origins go at least as far back as the Kamakura Period (1185–1333). It usually handles with two hands, but some techniques and combat styles require only one hand. The katana is generally coupled with a saya, a Japanese scabbard manufactured from very lightweight wood, with a coat of lacquer on the exterior and a wooden knob on one side for attaching a braided cord.
