Vague Katti is a formidable Katana-like sword that appears in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. The only S-ranked sword in Path of Radiance, this sword is lightweight, powerful, and in possession of the highest Critical Hit chance of any sword available in the game. It can also be wielded by a multitude of sword wielders, provided that they have achieved the required weapon rank.
The Vague Katti's return in Radiant Dawn sees a major improvement in a number of stats, save for its Critical Hit rate which is instead dramatically decreased. The sword's weapon ranking is also increased to an SS-rank.

Trivia[]
- The Vague Katti parallels the Mani Katti and Sol Katti blades in both name and design, the three being some of the few katana to appear in the series. However, these swords share no direct relation with one another as the Vague Katti hails from a completely different continent than the other two.
Etymology[]
The word vague is, in English, defined as "not clearly explained/defined." In French, conversely, it is instead defined as "wave." In its original, untranslated Japanese name, "Kati" may reference the garrison city of Kati, located in the country of Mali and once colonized by the French. The blade is only known to appear as Stefan's weapon of choice in the games that he appears in. Despite the ambivalence surrounding the blade's origins, however, it has proven to be one that is particularly lethal in the hands of a competent master of swords, drawing a fine parallel with the sheer strength that the undulation of the ocean is wont to possess.
