Wakizashi
The meaning "side inserted ()"〔(''Ogyû Sorai's Discourse on government (Seidan): an annotated translation'', Sorai Ogyū, Otto Harrassowitz Verlag, 1999 P.105 )〕 is one of the traditionally made Japanese swords ()〔(''The Development of Controversies: From the Early Modern Period to Online Discussion Forums, Volume 91 of Linguistic Insights. Studies in Language and Communication'', Author Manouchehr Moshtagh Khorasani, Publisher Peter Lang, 2008, ISBN 3-03911-711-4, ISBN 978-3-03911-711-6 P.150 )〕〔(''The Complete Idiot's Guide to World Mythology, Complete Idiot's Guides'', Authors Evans Lansing Smith, Nathan Robert Brown, Publisher Penguin, 2008, ISBN 1-59257-764-4, ISBN 978-1-59257-764-4 P.144 )〕 worn by the samurai class in feudal Japan.
==Description==
The ''wakizashi'' has a blade between 30 and 60 cm (12 and 24 in),〔(''The connoisseur's book of Japanese swords'', Kōkan Nagayama, Kodansha International, 1998 P.48 )〕 with ''wakizashi'' close to the length of a ''katana'' being called ''o-wakizashi'' and ''wakizashi'' closer to ''tantō'' length being called ''ko-wakizashi''.〔(''The connoisseur's book of Japanese swords'', Kōkan Nagayama, Kodansha International, 1998 P.48 )〕 The ''wakizashi'' being worn together with the ''katana'' was the official sign that the wearer was a samurai or swordsman of feudal Japan. When worn together the pair of swords were called ''daishō'', which translates literally as "big-little".〔(''The Japanese sword'', Kanzan Satō, Kodansha International, 1983 p.68 )〕 The katana was the ''big'' or ''long'' sword and the wakizashi the companion sword. ''Wakizashi'' are not necessarily just a smaller version of the ''katana''; they could be forged differently and have a different cross section.〔(''Samurai: The Code of the Warrior'', Thomas Louis, Tommy Ito, Sterling Publishing Company, Inc., 2008 P.138 )〕
