A couple weapons from the anime/manga Ruroni Kenshin. I had some motivation and they were easy, so....

Sakabatō: Also known as the reverse-blade katana. As its name suggests, it's a katana with the blade on the inside and not the outside. Himura Kenshin's weapon of choice, symbolizing his vow to never kill.

Zanbatō: The legendary blade said to be able to fell a horse and its rider in one swing. Thought to be lost, it wound up in the hands of the fight merchant, Sagara Sanosuke. It was broken in his fight against Kenshin.

Shinai: A practice sword. Myōjin Yahiko's weapon of choice, symbolizing his vow to never kill, just like his mentor and idle, Kenshin.

Kama Yari: Member of the Ten Blades, Honjō Kamatari's, weapon of choice. Acts like a scythe with a straight edge, and the ball on the end of the chain acts as a counterweight.

NOTE: (Use 4 chains and then use the chain ender for the best effect, it's also why it is so many nodes.)

Watō: The completely fictional, incredibly long, katana-like blade. Wielded by Kenshin's most formidable foe, Enishi Yukashiro.
