Whats better than a katana? awehuhp
There are many blades that are better than katana. Most people (anime fans in particular) just focus on them because you see them in anime so often. Personally, if we're talking Japanese blades, I'd prefer a pair of tantou or a naginata.

People always go on about how katana are amazing because the blades are folded up to thousands of times. Funny how they forget the reason for that is because Japan has crap iron ore.

Yes, yes it is. It even actually has that wave design, as a result of the conditions it's forged under.

I see. I heard Europe had several scythes made of that steel, but I didn't think it was a real thing.
