Snickersnee is an artifact katana, that simply does +1d8 damage; the only good thing about it is that it uses the long sword skill, so you can build up skill quickly. It is the first sacrifice gift for a samurai.

It is moderately useful in the early game, especially for Samurai, Valkyries and Knights (or other long sword wielders), but is probably never worth burning a wish for.
