This is a large pack consisting of a variety of melee weapons from ancient/fuedal Japanese eras, usually wielded by Samurai or other warriors of Japan. These are the weapons included:

1) The Katana/Daito + Scabbard

---

The Katana is an iconic weapon, one of the most recognizable swords in history. Though it is popular, the Katana was used more as a cultural symbol than a weapon of war.

2) The Naginata

---

The Naginata was a polearm used for stabbing and slicing, popular among Onna-Bugeisha (Female samurai). It is a formidable and deadly weapon.

3) The Kanabo/Tetsubo

---

The Kanabo was a large mace-like blunt weapon, sometimes associated with Onis. In reality, it is very clumsy on the battlefield.

4) The Tanto + Scabbard

---

The Tanto was a little sword, perhaps even a knife, often paired with a Katana. It is compact and useful for either stealth or last resorts (Seppuku).

5) The Nodachi/Odachi

---

The Nodachi was a larger version of the Katana, designed to take out cavalry. Ironically, it was used more on the actual battlefield than the Katana.

6) The Sai

---

The Sai was a striking weapon used famously in ninjutsu. It was even used in Chinese martial arts.

7) The Ninjato

---

The Ninjato was much like the Katana, though it was not curved. It is thought to be carried by Shinobis, but there is no actual proof of its existence.

8) The Masakari/Ono

---

The Masakari was a samurai war axe, but also many other things. In fact, the term Masakari refers to a wide association of axe shapes.

9a) The Kusarigama

---

The Kusarigama was a simple Kama attached to a weighted chain-ball. It was used for disarming enemies from a distance and was popular with ninja.

9b) The Kama

---

The Kama was a crop reaping tool that was also employed as a weapon. Though it was a lethal sickle, it was mostly used for farming.

10) The Shikomizue

---

The Shikomizue was a concealed blade that acts like a plain cane. Since it was so inconspicuous, it was very useful for assassination.

Some have color customization, like the Katana and Sai. The weapons that include a scabbard have easy snapping nodes so the blade fits well into the scabbard with ease. The Kusarigama features a stretchable 'chain' for accurate Kusarigamajutsu. You are free to edit these weapons for custom weaponry, but if you submit them to the site, make sure to give credit and include a different figure of your own making with it.

A Samurai pack will also be released soon so you can have a user of these weapons. There may also be a ninja/shinobi and Onna-Bugeisha pack, perhaps even a Ronin.

I hope you enjoy the pack! Have a good day!

(Each weapon is color-coded to its specific number/name. Please note the colored shadows on the figures are not a part of their actual shape.)
