I played through on a STR build, but I heard some people like the Reduvia and Black Knife for how quick they are and movesets. I never used them myself.

I was using the Reduvia for a little while but then I found Hookclaws which are even faster so I mostly use that now.

What I really want is an Uchigatana and I know there is one because I found a merchant selling a samurai set so no way that sword doesn't exist. It's gonna feel like Christmas once I come across it.

Uchigatana is available, but it's easy to miss if you're playing without spoilers. Great sword. I use it almost exclusively for a hybrid DEX/STR bleed build.

Mild SpoilerIt's tucked away in an early dungeon behind a hard to see passage. It's not a boss reward so even if you're finding all the dungeons it won't be obvious that you missed it. Good luck!

Yeah I'm doing a complete blind run for a genuine first time playthrough. I'm even playing offline so I don't see player messages saying where all the secrets are but thank you for at least confirming it's in the game. I'm planning to go back and comb through the previous zones for anything I could have missed before moving onto the eastern side of the map. Hopefully I'll run into it, if not I don't mind going straight for it in NG+.

Oh for sure. I started as a Samurai class so began with that weapon but soon changed as I started leveling STR later on! I'm sure it's available elsewhere than just as a starter weapon.
