Katanas

People don't realise that there are several different types of Japanese swords like the wakizashi and tachi... but they always go for the generic Katana.

I also see katanas a lot they long short and so on but in truth there are many different types but like he said...

The Wakizashi is a bit shorter and the Tachi is longer and in general you get the Nodachi which is really long like ranging from a meter to as long as five or more meters, that sword type gets a bit crazy
