Though the helpfiles state they should, two-handed katanas are not counted as great blades.

To demonstrate:

mostly by warriors. Great blades include:

You don't even know which end of a pure silver katana with a moonstone pommel is up!
You hold a pure silver katana with a moonstone pommel in both of your hands.

They are great blades, but they are also exotic weapons.

It is a katana in the great blades category of weapons.
It can be picked up, held, held in both hands.
It cannot be worn with any other armour.
It is medium in size and would fit any body type.
It is made of steel and weighs about 5 pounds.
