Lore

These traditional blades commonly used by Hannish foot soldiers are not, in fact, actual katars—a Thavnairian word that translates to “short sword ”—but jamadhars. The misnomer took root in Eorzea as the result of a mistake made during the Great Gubal Library's transcription of a Near Eastern compendium on weaponry, the curator accidentally misappropriating lines from an entry on jamadhars to the entry on katars.

— Encyclopaedia Eorzea Volume II, p. 194
