My take on the traditional Japanese Katana is thus:

Katana
Def Bonus:  +1
Speed:            1
Dam: STR+3d6

The katana was not a parrying weapon (regardless of how popular media
portrays it) but it did have a MUCH keener edge than european swords. 
The samurai depended as much on his footwork and speed as he did on his
blade to win in a fight.
