Version 1.1 - Fixed attack sound still using the Shishkebab one when there are no flames (using the chinese officer sword now.) - Fixed size, I realised that scale was actually smaller than the Shishkebab (Damn objs)
Version 1.11 - Added to Raider leveled lists. Raider Survivalists now have a chance to carry it. Its through another esp in-case you have another mod that alters the raider's leveled list, this way you can choose which you want to keep.
[size=+2]January 17, 2016[/size] Version 1.2 - Fixed glossiness issue (Thanks to SassyTheSasquatch1) - Added an optional file for the vanilla blade curvature
To Do: - Make it a weapon mod or use it as the base model for the Shishkebab and make the regular Shishkebab a mod. - Reforged version (ties in to the above) People who want a Reforged version: III

How would I add another Shishkebab texture to this? I have a shishkebab texture that would make this sword look good, but I don't want the same texture for the actual shishkebab. Like I know there was an empty texture folder that came with this mod, what would I have to rename the texture I have so it would be applied to this sword?
curme You reminded me dwight schrute XD. I personally love the shape of the blade. However, I do hope someone makes a flameless black version of the Shishkabab. That would be super awesome.
"The katana is characterized by its distinctive appearance: a curved, slender, single-edged blade with a circular or squared guard and long grip to accommodate two hands."
I'd hate to break it to you, but it meets 2 out of 3 requirements.... not to mention I think that KageOni31 is Japanese based on his name and the way the machine translation worked (yeah I noticed that XD).... and he said there are many types of Katana.... granted he also said that it's closer to a Ninjatou (is this the correct way to spell it? XD).... although it's not guaranteed, a person from the country of origin of said sword is far more likely to know about it then someone from another country... therefore I will take his word for it.
o wow. okay. so if i'm american, and i tell you that george washington was never president, would you trust me because i'm american and i should know about my history?
does the wikipedia article say "usually curved," no. it says curved. it says that the katana has a DISTINCTIVE appearance, and with its DISTINCTIVE appearance, the katana is curved.
Well. My (japanese) kendo sensei told us katanas are always curved since it's a blade designed for cutting. Since all sources are consistent with katanas being curved so I dont really understand why you're even trying to argue otherwise. That being said I love the mod.
Crossing my fingers for someone to make a katana mod where it's wielded two-handed like it's supposed to.
@Jek84 Well, it doesn't HAVE to be two handed, the Niten-Ichi Ryu style holds them one-handed. But traditionally, yes they would usually be two handed.
Could you please highten the location which the character holds the katana. Instead of grabbing near the hand guard, the hand grads the sword in the middle of the handle and it looks kind of silly. Thank you
Little help with Huge Size install instructions pls? I can't seem to make either of the huge version work; tired all combinations of installing all 4 files. Depending on the combination the sword ends up small and straight or invisible, never huge and/or never curved.
Really nice mod, I noticed that you have a file for the katana in the back are you planning on adding it? If yes that would be really good, I play as a sword user but I hate how the swords just appear out of nowhere
Actually, yes now that the CK is out. Hopefully complete with a script that auto equips the back version when you holster it. I've just been busy working on my portfolio for work recently.

"...curved, slender, singled-edged blade..."
"curved..."
Curved.

pls. this isnt a katana.

just a quick question:
is the huge katana a standalone? or does it replace your mod?
