The Ninja serve under their lord in feudal Japan. They are well known for their vast selection and collection of exotic weapons that serve as their arsenal. Whether they are out for a mission of espionage for the possibility of assassinating somebody or to engage in open warfare, these Ninja can would or kill an enemy with the use of these weapons. One of their favorite weapons of which they are famous the world over is their Ninja swords. These Ninja are thought of as mysterious shadow warriors that can move in lightning speed while moving gracefully and silently at the same time. Speed is of the essence and there is also the need to be unpredictable by catching the enemy unaware. This is the fascinating world of these warriors. Their weapon can be classified into four:

• Air Propelled • Clawed • Invisible • Pyrotechnic

These warriors are known for being clever and are considered to be super spies. The parade of deadly weapons invented by these assassins are exotic but, at the same time requires skills of whoever uses them. Ancient Japan is known for having these impressive assassins that were continually honored in books and movies. Among the list of weapons use there are improvised weapons but, Ninja swords does not belong to the improvised kinds of Ninja weaponry. These swords were viewed differently two ways.

One school of thought says that these swords were unique. This is how Hollywood embraces this concept. Another school of thought says that their weaponry are not unique since not to attract attention to the common casual observer. In second school of thought the weapon must be viewed not as real weapons so as to contain a spirit of surprise. A Ninja will not get caught dead without these swords.  However, should the need arise for them to leave their sword behind they will have no qualms about doing so. Unlike Samurai that view their swords as an extension of their very soul.

Since Ninjas are masters of imitation their sword reflects the same thing however, the scabbard looks different than those use by Samurai warriors. These are shorter because this will allow the Ninja faster maneuvering. Ninjas can cling to walls until they reach the top and they use their swords as footholds. The longer Samurai swords are therefore impractical to use for these obvious reasons. The tips of these swords can come off to use as snorkel if there is a need to hide from the enemy. In the same scabbard lies a hidden compartment that will hide smaller weapons like spikes or daggers. Some of these can even contain poison. The blade is not very sharp which is why Ninjas can use this as hammer when they hold onto the blade. Although it takes some careful handling to use this as hammer during emergency situations.
