It was confirmed last night on gametrailers TV on Spike. Chett was the one who said they now had a Katana.Crossy the Coward 12:44, 14 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Adding the video here would be a great source to confirm this more. Powers38Talk 05:15, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

this appears to do quite a bit of damage against the tank. The Deep 1 01:34, September 22, 2009 (UTC)


 * " Against a Tank or Witch it would do little to no damage." Err... Powers38Talk 07:10, September 29, 2009 (UTC)

that is an absolute lie, i have tried, but it takes at least 4 hits to kill one.-- SS4FireFox 04:45, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

Primary weapon of the samurai? No. Just no.

Also, source on that ninjato comment. There's no historical evidence of them ever being used by ninja.

Funny, there was some statement on there regarding the likelihood of the owner of the katana on the Freeway being dead. Given that the Survivors have no trouble cutting through four or five Infected at a time, it makes no real noise, never jams and never runs out of ammo, it would be a pretty good thing to have around in case of zombies. Also, I'm going to remove that bit about the historical accuracy of the ninjato. It has no sources, makes no sense, and it smacks of someone putting in their own point of view on a weapon that is very likely entirely fictional. Atypicaloracle 10:18, November 24, 2009 (UTC)

It isn't a katana. The length of the handle in relation to the blade precludes this as a possibility. It is a shinobigatana. Literally a ninja sword. It is basically a short blade on a katana's hilt.

Name
I have a question that may sound abit wierd. Yes, it is a Katana, but we have always gone with in-game names, and the in- game name is "Ninja Sword". They never say Katana. (Well, Ellis has one line that says "Grabbn' a Katana, but its extremely rare). So, I ask: Shoudlwe change the page name to Ninja Sword?--'Iron Tacoz 450 RO A R! 19:33, December 20, 2009 (UTC)


 * Uh... hmm. Does it ever say Katana? Imperialscouts 21:04, December 20, 2009 (UTC)
 * It was constantly reffered to as Katana before release, that's why.  Strong Intelligent 


 * So maybe we should. Maye not. It's kind of a weird situation, everyone is going to know of it as a katana. But if what you say is true, then technically that's usually what we go by. Imperialscouts 21:26, December 20, 2009 (UTC)


 * Actually, as Ellis at least, if you look at the sword and "vocalize", he will usually say "Katana here!" but he can also say "Ninja-sword here!" I think the others will call it a Katana if you vocalize as them as well. Imperialscouts 02:52, December 28, 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, no. Ellis rarely says Katana, and no other Survivor ever calls it a Katana. I tested it, and about 5 out of 100 times, Ellis said "Grabbin' a Katana." No other Survivor ever said it in my 100 tests.--'Iron Tacoz 450 RO A R! 05:43, December 28, 2009 (UTC)
