The [Katana] is a single edged curved steel weapon, used by warriors of fuedal japan. It is made by forging and folding steel to rid it of impurities, then coating [the cutting edge] in clay, heating it up and quenching it to harden the cutting edge, revealing is called a temperline ([Hamon]). The Katana was a decorative peice of art as well as a weapon, consisting of a Tsuba (hanguard) [Tuki] Ito (handle wrap, usually coloured) and other intricate artistic fittings.

Under controlled test conditions, a [Nihonto] (japanese made [katana]) was able to shatter a .45ACP round without sustaining damage, and widthstood 7 [direct hits] from a M2 [HMG] (heavy machine gun)with its .50BMG armour piercing round before shattering.
The katana came into use in the [1400s], before hand the [Tachi] was used, a longer sword used on horseback and worn in a different manner. Before that were the straight blades, Chokuto, from China. The katana is usually worn with the cutting edge (Ha) facing upwards, thrust through an Obi (belt). On rare occasions, The Katana was worn blade down (sometimes when armour was worn). It was usually the primary weapon of a warrior or Samurai, though in wars [Yari] (spear) were prefered due to the damage they inflicted on Armour, along with Maai (distancing). -
