In the right hands both were incredibly deadly. I'd give the "edge" to the katana, as a broad sword, while powerful, takes longer to reverse direction.

A katana and/or wakizashi in the hands of a trained samurai could gut and filet you in seconds. Being the lighter weapon, a katana is easier to reverse direction, engage multiple thrusts, and are incredibly sharp.

Samurai swords are seen by many as the greatest swords ever made, mostly due to their unique construction, deadly curved blade, incredible sharpness, and high level of training that the samurai received.

Did ninja and samurai share a same temple?

Ninja are usually regarded as the anti-samurai. The samurai were extremely overt and colorful personalities. Their whole being depended on public display - death-defying and often death-seeking bravado. The ninja were the opposite: in order to be a spy, you have to survive and be secretive. Secretiveness was something the samurai pretended to despise, but in fact the ninja were vital to military activity. And quite often the samurai during the day doubled as ninja during the night.So could ninja be samurai at the same time?You could, theoretically. There would have been some sort of distinction, because samurai were often extremely high class, but ninja not necessarily so. But there was an overlap in the middle sooo in short yes they could
