Despite being derived from the [[Master Sword]], the Golden Sword has a radically different design. The [[Triforce]] emblem on the blade is upside-down and closer to the cross-guard, which is green and appears sleeker and straight-edged; the central jewel is also missing. The ricasso is much less prominent in the blade, the grip is now black, and the pommel is green.

In ''A Link Between Worlds'', the Golden Sword appears identical to the Master Sword, except with a golden blade.

The Golden Sword can be obtained at the [[Mysterious Pond]] inside the [[Pyramid of Power]], which can be accessed using the [[Super Bomb]]. If [[Link (A Link to the Past)|Link]] throws the [[Tempered Sword]] into the pond, the [[Cursed Fairy]] will appear, and ask if it is Link's: if he says yes, the Fairy remarks that she likes honest people and will give him something better in return, upgrading the sword into the Golden Sword.{{ref|ALTTP|170|Cursed Fairy}}

The Golden Sword deals double damage compared to the Tempered Sword, making it four times stronger than the [[Master Sword]], and eight times stronger than the [[Fighter's Sword]]; in the SNES version, it is also the only weapon capable of damaging [[Ganon]] with normal strikes, instead of requiring a [[Spin Attack]]. In [[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (GBA)|the GBA version]], the sword will break [[Jar|Jars]] and [[Skull|Skulls]] with its swings.
