Katana (3.5e Equipment)

The katana is a sharp and slightly curved sword and can be deadly in the right hands. A katana is basically a longer, slightly heavier longsword with a single edge, as such a character with a full base attack bonus and proficiency with a longsword can spend 2 skill points to gain proficiency in the katana. Those without a full base attack bonus can pay 4 skill points to gain proficiency if they have proficiency in the longsword.
