Samurai were fighting on horses in Medieval Japan. They were actually the cavalry.
Their primary war time weapon was the Yari, an about 7 foot long lance.
The Katana, Japanese sword, was their backup weapon when on the battlefield.
They would use the sword if they were thrown down from their horse during battle.
This is why in the Japanese swordsmanship Art (Iaido), most work ('forms' or Katas) start from a kneeling down position, as to educate the warrior how to draw their sword while raising up from the ground.
