Although the "Katana" can mean any single edged sword it is iconic for the "Samurai Sword" which originated in Japan during the Muromachi Period (1392-1573). As I said, it is famous for being the main weapon of the Samurai. It was preceded by the Tachi which is longer and curved even more. There are various styles including; Kodachi, Nodachi, Odachi, Ninjato, Wakizashi and various others.
