The wakizashi, also known as the, is a traditional Japanese short saber. Its shape is similar to that of katana, although the edge is generally thinner. Samurai warriors often carried both with them, collectively calling them daish, literally ‘the long and the short’.
The wakizashi was originally used as a defense weapon for the samurai, when it did not have the katana. Being shorter and more manageable, it was better suited for enclosed defense.
