The '''Wooden Sword''' is the first [[Sword]] [[Link]] obtains in four games of [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|The Legend of Zelda Series]]. Because of that, it is also the weakest sword in these games. It has appeared in the ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'', and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''.

The Wooden Sword is the first item available for [[Link]] to collect. While it is optional, not picking it up will make the game considerably more challenging. The Wooden Sword can be found on the [[Starting Screen]], where there is a small cave on the northern rock. Inside, the [[Old Man]] will say the legendary line, "IT'S DANGEROUS TO GO ALONE! TAKE THIS".{{Ref|LoZ|41|[[Old Man]]}} He will then give Link the Wooden Sword. The Wooden Sword is by fair the weakest sword in the game. An example of this is the fact that it takes eigh thits to kill [[Aquamentus (The Legend of Zelda)|Aquamentus]] with the Wooden 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 Wooden Sword is again the first sword Link receives in ''Twilight Princess''. Link obtains the Wooden Sword from [[Rusl]] who repaired it and returned it to Link. Using this sword the player can practice all of the basic sword fighting skills on the training dummy just outside [[Link's House]]. This sword will remain in Link's inventory until after he rescues [[Talo]], who will then ask Link to let him borrow it. After the [[Twilight]] has covered the [[Eldin Province]], [[Wolf Link]] discovers the broken remains of the Wooden Sword on the ground. It is from these remains he picks up the [[Youths' Scent]]. This scent is used to track down the kidnapped children.

*In the Japanese version of ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', the [[Wooden Sword]] is just called the ''Sword''.
