The Ninjato

This sword, even more than the Katana,is the sword people think of when they hear the word "Ninja". The difference in blade design means that this blade is more useful for stabbing than slicing,but that doesn't mean that it was outside the realm of possibilities. The design of the blade would also allow the user to draw it from their back, like the average person is accustomed to thinking. In the end however, this was just another tool to be exploited by the Ninja.
