Katanas are a rare type of heartsword with a curved, single-edged blade, a two-handed grip, and a square guard.
Wielders are dignified and precise. Originally classified as a kind of saber, but when separated out and compared, katanas universally turned out to be more reserved. Their standards for themselves are high without getting unrealistic, so they avoid the “neurotic mess” stage; and they don't get snappish about other people not measuring up, they just quietly work around everyone else's limits.
