I just bought Ultimate Combat and was wondering about a few things about this barbarian archetype.
1.) Can the archetype (or any character, for that matter) use large two-handed weapons with Jotungrip? Or with any other ability?
2.) Since a katana is a martial weapon could the archetype use a large katana two-handed and have it count as a martial weapon?
Thanks for your time.

1.) Can the archetype (or any character, for that matter) use large two-handed weapons with Jotungrip? Or with any other ability?
If the character is large, yes. Jotungrip only applies to appropriately sized weapons. A medium barbarian can use a medium two-handed weapon in one hand, or a large barbarian can use a large two-handed weapon in one hand. (Both examples at -2 attack)
2.) Since a katana is a martial weapon could the archetype use a large katana two-handed and have it count as a martial weapon?
If the weapon is martial, then its martial. Size doesn't matter.
If the Katana is a one-handed martial weapon, then a medium Titan Mauler could use a large katana in two hands. The penalty is -2 for inappropriate size, but is reduced at level 3 and then 6 due to her Massive Weapons ability.
