Trivia: Samurai used many weapons, but their most trusted weapon was what?
Tanto
Yumi
Wakizashi
Katana
The correct answer is Katana
So why is this answer correct? : The katana, meaning “a curved sword with a one-sided blade,” came to prominence in the 15th century. The katana could be used one-handed or two-handed, and was often paired with a wakizashi, a smaller blade. The two blades together, often worn on the left side of a samurai’s belt, were called a daishō, which literally means “big little.”
