The ōdachi (kanji: 大太刀, "large great sword") is a traditional Japanese longsword. It is also called the nodachi (kanji: 野太刀, "field sword"). There is no standard definition for how long a sword's blade had to be to qualify as one, but typically it was somewhere around 35 inches (88.9 centimeters).
In TMNT[]
The ōdachi is seldom featured in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise.
Rise of the TMNT[]
In Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Leonardo wields the Mystic Ōdachi, which he stole from Baron Draxum's laboratory in "Mystic Mayhem", but it does not resemble any real-life sword in that class.
