{"id":88,"count":6,"description":"<div class=\"clear\"><p class=\"text-floatleft\">Wakizashi was carried as a backup weapon next to Katana by Samurai. Samurai needed to use Wakizashi when he fought in a small room or with proximity, where Katana would be too long to unsheathe. The Wakizashi swords below are all replicas with no edges and blades are made of zinc alloy, which is too soft to sharpen. That means they are solely made for decorations to please your eyes.<\/p>\r\n <p class=\"text-floatright\">They are all made in Japan and more affordable than antique Japanese swords.
