Highest damage potential among katanas, comparable to other top-tier non-great weapons, while having bleed on top of that. Despite this, it doesn't come with the drawbacks of weapons like the Great Scythe, which is nearly unusable in tight areas, or the Painting Guardian Sword, which has pathetic reach.

Assuming you don't buff at all times, this is extraodinary if you want a simple, easy-to-use weapon. I'm also sure that the double risk vs. reward of the recoil damage and having to use humanity to maximise the damage output appeals to more than a few player.
