Katana

The Katana is a melee weapon that is sold by the Traveling Merchant. Considering he can spawn very early into the game, the Katana can be quite useful as it has very good stats for an early game sword. The Katana has a base 19% critical strike chance, as opposed to the usual 4%, and has autoswing, which makes it extremely useful for bosses such as the Eater of Worlds.

Its best Modifier is Legendary.

Trivia

 * Katana are a type of Japanese sword, renowned for their sharpness and superb craftsmanship, which was developed as a result of the poor quality of the iron that medieval Japanese swordsmiths had access to.
