| | Katana - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In 1934 the Japanese government issued a military specification for the shin gunto "new army sword" the first version of which was referred to as a "Type 94 katana", and many machine- and handcrafted swords used in World War II conformed to this and later shin gunto specifications. | | | Early swords were in the style of Chinese swords, straight and single or double-edged. | | | Due to this disarmament, as of 1958 there were more Japanese swords in America than in Japan: American soldiers would return from the Orient with piles of swords, often as many as they could carry. |

| | Sword - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Tetsusaiga Sword of Inuyasha, a character in Japanese anime. | | | Swords form a suit in the Tarot deck (replaced by spades in the French deck of playing cards). | | | The estoc became popular because of its ability to thrust into the gaps in-between plates of armor.The grip was sometimes wrapped in wire or coarse animal hide to make it harder to knock a sword of the hand and to prevent the sword from slipping out. |

| | SWORD - LoveToKnow Article on SWORD |
| | The handle of a sword provides a grip for the hand that wields it, or sometimes for two hands; it may add protection, and in most patterns does so to a greater or less extent. | | | One might say that a weapon too large to be concealed about the person cannot be called a dagger. | | | Neither does the English word nor, so far as we are aware, any of the equivalent words in other languages, Aryan or otherwise, throw any light on the matter. |

| | The sword has two methods of attack: when equipped, a melee attack can have some extra sting applied to it; or if a target is in range, you can lunge with it in hand, dealing death out to foolish opponents. | | | In Team Swords your group should generally stay together and hunt as a pack, but in the case that your team is always dispersed at least have all your allies on high ground so you can get the jump on your foes and gain kills faster then your ground-level foes.--Rykas 20:28, 23 Oct 2005 (EDT) | | | The Basic of Sword Dodging is that you have to strafe toward the oppenents hand that is not holding the sword. |
