-The Kusanagi Sword: Long Sword of the Heavens is the [[Wikipedia:Kusanagi|Kusanagi]] of Japanese legend. Orochimaru retrieves his Kusanagi by opening his mouth and extending a snake which then opens its mouth and produces the sword. Orochimaru was seen producing the sword handle first so he could use it freely, or blade first to attack his opponent instantly. The sword can extend its blade to attack from long distances and it can cut through almost anything. Should the wielder be disarmed, the sword can fly back to them by use of a hand motion. It can also return to the wielder by transforming itself into a snake and slithering back to them. The Kusanagi appears differently from the [[wikipedia:manga|manga]] to the [[wikipedia:anime|anime]]. In the manga, the Kusanagi looks more like a standard katana, while in the anime it is a guardless, double-edged [[Wikipedia:jian|jian]]. It should be noted that Orochimaru's Kusanagi could not pierce [[Naruto Uzumaki|Naruto]] in his [[Naruto Jinchūriki Forms#Four-Tailed Transformation|Four-Tailed form]].
-[[Sasuke Uchiha]] refers to the chokuto he carries as a "Sword of Kusanagi", but it carries none of the unique attributes that Orochimaru's does.
