    I should know what I'm talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine katana in Hingashi for 18,400,000 Gil and have been practicing with it for almost 6 months now. I can even cut slabs of allagan steel with my katana.

    Hingashi smiths spend years working on a single katana and fold it up to a million times to produce the finest blades known to mankind.

    Katanas are thrice as sharp as Eorzean swords and thrice as hard for that matter too. Anything a longsword can cut through, a katana can cut through better. I'm pretty sure a katana could easily bisect a Paladin wearing full plate with a simple vertical slash.

    Ever wonder why Garlemald never bothered conquering Hingashi? That's right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined Samurai and their katanas of destruction.

    So what am I saying? Katanas are simply the best sword that the world has ever seen, and Zenos; master of the blade, is thus the best swordsman ever seen.
