The '''Sword''' is the first weapon and [[sword]] obtained in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' and, by extension, [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]].

The Sword is the first item available for [[Link]] to collect. While it is optional, not picking it up makes the game considerably more challenging. The Sword can be found on the [[Starting Screen]], where there is a small cave on the northern rock. Inside, the [[Old Man]] says the legendary line, ''"It's dangerous to go alone! Take this"''.{{Ref|LoZ|41|[[Old Man]]}} He then gives Link the Sword, which can fire [[Sword Beam]]s at full health. | The Sword is the first item available for [[Link (The Legend of Zelda)|Link]] to collect.

The Sword is by far the weakest sword in the game - for instance, it takes eight hits to kill [[Aquamentus (The Legend of Zelda)|Aquamentus]] with the Sword, but only two with the Magical Sword. Later on in the game, it can be replaced by the [[White Sword]] and/or the [[Magical Sword]]. | The Sword is by far the weakest sword in the game - for instance, it takes eight hits to kill [[Aquamentus (The Legend of Zelda)|Aquamentus]] with the Sword, but only two with the Magical Sword.

The Sword is an [[amiibo]] exclusive weapon found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. It can be obtained by scanning a Link (The Legend of Zelda) amiibo, through the use of the [[amiibo (Rune)|amiibo Rune]]. Scanning the amiibo will drop various items from the sky, along with a treasure chest, which has a chance of containing the Sword, but can also contain different items. The amiibo can only be scanned once per day. | The Sword is an [[amiibo]] exclusive weapon found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''.

It represents the iconic sword used by [[Link (The Legend of Zelda)|Link]] in the [[The Legend of Zelda|first Zelda game]], as referenced with the nod in the description above. The design comes from the promotional pictures of Link holding it from the original game, rather than the in-game sprite itself. | |||
The sword itself is a one-handed weapon, with a base power of 22 and a durability of 27. Its power and durability are among the weakest of all [[Breath of the Wild amiibo Exclusive Weapons|amiibo exclusive melee weapons]]. | |||
