A. Sutherland - AncientPages.com - Katana is the most famous Japanese samurai sword.

The Japanese Katana sword is considered "the soul of the Samurai" and one of the deadliest edged weapons used in ancient and feudal Japan, but its origin is not entirely known.

Katana sword, used by the samurai, the members of Japan’s knightly class, represents a combination of both Chinese and Japanese craftsmanship and in its early form it may originate from China.

Early form came from the Koreans, according to the Koreans.   They have similar metal working processes and make knives and swords similar to the Katana.
