In the old days, a samurai would often have a naginata as his main weapon, and would use others (usually his katana) when the naginata was either unavailable or not ideal for the situation. A samurai also often gave his wife a naginata as a gift, and would teach her to use it. This way, when the samurai was away from home, his wife could (along with retainers and other allies) protect the martial house
But i actually Prefer the Great Nagamaki.Bigger than the regular Nagamaki.The blade is the same length as the handle,and the blade is an Odachi.
Use of nagamaki was very rare; they were used to cleave horses in two. Because their use was very rare and thought of as impractical, I did not add the nagamaki to the quiz.

Its more of a legendary sword than anything.The blade is a mix of a chineese water song blade,and a Japanese Odachi.Its that poisonous sowrd I was telling you about.Oh,and the handle is ther same length as the blade.

I find its name very strange, in regards to the blade's East Asian origin.

There's nothing wrong with creating things in your mind. That's what I did with Kurosakura, until I was finally able to find and purchase its real-life manifestation.
