    Final fantasy histories, not actual histories. Otherwise we'd have spear wielding everything. Paladins would probably be wielding maces or axes. Monks would probably not be wielding whatever those knuckles they have are....

    Japanese and American popular media identifies the Samurai with his Daisho. Samurai will wield some sort of Katana. Final fantasy Samurai have always wielded 2 handed katana, just as ninjas have always had the dual wield trait.
