    We need a Japanese one handed style of sword - wakizashi (Japanese: 脇差, "side inserted [sword]") . This will complement the two handed Japanese Katana we already have in game.

    My citizens of Kamakura (nestled in Dara Brae POT) requested this.

    There is a shikomizui in game now . Not sure if drops a pattern (never has) but no reason it shouldn't. Maybe @Elgarion can add it to his full plate.

    The Shikomizui was a hidden sword in a cane. Very straight unlike the Katana. Ours in game is also a two handed weapon.

    The Samurai Katana companion sword is the Wakizashi. Samurai would wear both (called a Daishō) at the same time. Both would be put on display together. The Wakizashi is a curved, single-edged sword like the Katana.

    The Wakizashi could also be made into an ornate version and electric version to be placed in the COTO store, @Elgarion , just like the Katana is now. Plus an in game version that drops with a salvaged pattern.

    We need a one handed Perennial Coast weapon = Wakizashi.

    For more Japanese and Perennial Coast culture history please visit Kamakura in game, to the right of Dara Brae when you enter in the main entrance near the first Yew tree in New Britannia. :)
