Samurai's are known for their work with swords. There are three general ways of describing swords a short sword (less than 12 inches long) is called a Tanto, and Wakisashi is 12 to 24 inches long and a Katana is longer than 24 inches. Most samurai carried a Katana and a Wakisashi with them.

Some samurai also used bow and arrows. Longbowed samurais were very useful.
