Improves Kusabimaru in several ways

When FromSoft made the Wolf's weapon, they had the right idea. Problem is, there were various issues with their rendition of Wolf's Kusabimaru. The nagasa was not the right size for the habaki, the tsuba was too big, and the hilt was too thick and not long enough. All in all, it looks like a very cheaply made sword. Kusabimaru is meant to be an heirloom passed down to Wolf from the Hirata clan. This rendition of Kusabimaru reflects that in my opinion. This Kusabimaru is made with the intent of realistic balance and craft. The various fixes include resizing and a 180 flip of the tsuba on the y axis (think flipping a burger patty) to create a better fit for the habaki and hilt. The hilt has been lengthened and thinned to better fit Wolf's hand as well as be more similarly balanced to a real world counterpart (hilts had to be a certain length to fit the remainder of the blade to ensure proper balance of the sword to make the hilt more resistant to breaking and better able to disperse kinetic energy). The blade has been replaced with a retextured version of the mortal blade, as well as the sheath being the mortal blade's. Both have been resized to fit kusabimaru's length and hitboxes. The sheath also features the sageos (hilt straps) from the Tengu of Ashina and the Lone Shadow shinobi.  All textures for everything have been renamed as to ensure no conflicts with NPCs. This was a personal project for a while that i had cooked up a loooooong time ago. I took the time to polish a few things with my current skill set and i'm happy with the result. I'll be running it for a while. Enjoy :)
