Yoru was originally a katana but Mihawk permanently hardened it with thick and long CoA layers, forming Yoru in the process.

How do you know he had a katana before ?

 

[Konstantis]

He stoled it from museum, so case Yoru contained strongest haki in the World, Mihawk started to use it.

 

[NAMELESS]

[Warchief Sanji D Goat]

Because Yoru is the strongest sword in the world.

So he wield and turn it into a black blade.

That's a wooden practice sword
Besides, dont expect him to have Yoru from beginning, he probably got it during his journey to become WSS, just like Zoro keeps getting new swords
