When was Vader's Katana last in the item shop?

How much does Vader's Katana cost?
We don't have a recorded price for Vader's Katana. We only know an item's price from days it has appeared in the shop while we were tracking it, and this pickaxe hasn't.
Can you still get Vader's Katana?
Most Fortnite cosmetics return to the item shop on rotation, but Epic doesn't publish a schedule and some items — battle pass rewards and promotional items in particular — never come back. There's no reliable way to tell in advance which category any given pickaxe falls into.
What set is Vader's Katana part of?
Vader's Katana is part of the Star Wars Samurai set. Items in a set are usually released together and often return to the shop together, though Epic sometimes rotates them individually.
