In my opinion, this weapon is too expensive to be usable with the current stats. Comparison to similar weapons:
Short Falchion: Both weapons have the same speed. Wakizashi is longer and has a stab, but 1 cut damage less. Upkeep difference: 442
Italian Falchion: Same stab damage and lenght. Wakizashi is faster, but has 5(!) cut damage less. Upkeep difference: 214
Nordic Short War Sword: The Nordic Short War Sword is better in every category except for speed. Wakizashi has only 1 stab less, while all other stats are significantly better. Upkeep difference: 260
In conclusion, the Wakizashi is totally overpriced for its stats. Please buff its stats within reason or make it significantly cheaper.
Have fun and good games!

Wakizashi is a sin, nobody should use it

Dude, it is not just some kind of wakizashi. This is a 1000000 times folded wakizashi from another dimension where it is a prized weapon of god of war.
If you wanna be a weaboo, you gotta pay for it.

I'm going to use a wakizashi with my black assassin gear just to annoy you rico
-
You're right, the wakizashi is grossly underpowered compared to its cost. To solve this I think they should completely remove all weaboo gear from the mod -- It's the only thing to do. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
-
The only reason people wakizashi is, it looks nice with a katana. :)
-
1 handeds are OP, buffing more is the wrong way to go about balancing
-
Maybe those weapons are too cheap? Wakizashi is pretty good already.
-
Wakizashi is probably the most useless item in the whole 1h category.

Practice. Dagger.

Useful as a joke weapon, tho

Weaboo tax.

And yeah the wakizashi sucks

I consider my MW Wakizashi a fashion item. Certainly can't be called weapon :P
-
Give it one more cut please. Otherwise it is weaker than the Short Falchion but it costs 6 times as much...
-
Weapons need to be priced on their effectiveness, not some dork's prejudice.

Exept that wakizashi barely ever seen real combat irl. And what is with clothes costng 3 grand huh?

Sorry, don't understand your post.
How was the Wakizashi not used in "real" combat?
It probably wouldn't have been used in Armored combat very often,
but Unarmored combat would be a different matter,
especially in close quarter/indoor combat.
Seems "real" to me.

Fight someone with 200 wpf and a Masterwork Wakizashi and tell me it's under-powered. San's Liuyedao barely renders an animation, and that's 2 speed slower.
Short Falchion is also very good, and a good value. Wakizashi is expensive because it's stylish.
-
who even cares about upkeep these days?

Yes it is. They should add it a secondary mode and make it throwable. Now that would be very ninja like and fitting...

Oh?, Are you serious?. I bet most fights degenerating in grappling actually ended with one of those fancy japanese knives in one of the fighter's faces...
-
Wakizashi is the fastest 1h sword in the game. only daggers are faster. I'd say they're pretty well balanced for what they are.

Sure, Like you are totally going to grab someone on the battlefield who wields 1,2m long sword. By real combat I mean real battlefield condition or siege, not some street brawl.
This grapling you are talking about only happoens in movies. In fact, nobody sane would try to grapple someone else who wields two handed sword.

I guess all those Asian martial arts with their fancy grapples, throws and hand to hand combat were just funny hobbies among the common people?

They were designed for traditional duels, a contest of arts and techniques, not for usage on a place where several hundred people fight between each other at same time.
The point was that wakizashi was self defence weapon much like knife or folding batton nowadays. They are designed for emergency usage, not for full on combat. Try to compare small folding baton to those long nightsticks armored cops use.
