The Wakizashi is a One-Handed Weapon for Swordsmanship practitioners. Similar to but shorter than a katana, it was usually worn together by the samurai of feudal Japan.

They are crafted by blacksmiths, and can be recycled using a Salvage Bag or smith tool. To perform either action your character must be standing near an anvil and forge. Smelting provides a better return if you have a high level of mining.

Weapons that are exceptionally crafted will receive a Damage Increase bonus that is further boosted by your character's Arms Lore skill. Runic Tools, Imbuing or Runic Re-Forging can be used to add additional Item Properties, making for a far more powerful weapon.

Items retain the color of the material from which they are made. Crafted (and not imbued) versions can have their durability increased, via Powder of Fortifying, to a maximum of 255 and can be dyed with Pigments of Tokuno and Natural Dyes. If crafted exceptionally by a GM+ crafter they can hold their maker's mark.
