The SRD only gives a means to determine costs and weights of weapons for Large and Small versions based on the Medium weapons. Any other supplied values are the author's best determination.

This sword is much like a rapier, exept that it has a wider, stiff blade. It has a slightly curved blade, one cutting edge, and a rapier like hilt. It's construction is like that of a Katana, but the blade is about one meter in length, and two and a half centimeters wide at the base. It is lighter than a Katana, and is balanced perfectly for fine control of the sword. because of this, you can use the Weapon Finesse feat, even though it isn’t a light weapon. You can’t wield a Dueling Katana in two hands in order to apply 1-1/2 times your Strength bonus to damage. This weapon is a rapier for the purpose of class abilities.
