A katana is often called a samurai sword and the term katana can be applied to any Japanese sword that is curved with a blade length of greater than 60 cm. The katana has a distinctive appearance with a curved, slender single edged blade with a long grip so that two hands can comfortably hold the sword.
Historically the katana has been associated with the feuding samurais of Japan. The sword has become renowned for its extraordinary sharpness and mythical cutting ability which is portrayed on many martial arts movies. See our video section for a few of the more popular videos.
