The '''Golden Sword''', also known as the '''Master Sword Lv3''', is a [[sword]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''. It is the final form of the [[Master Sword]], and is theoretically the strongest sword in the entire franchise due to being a direct upgrade of the former.

==Appearance==
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 ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|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#A Link to the Past|Ganon]] with normal strikes, instead of requiring a [[Spin Attack]]. In the [[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (GBA)|GBA version]], the sword will break [[Jar]]s and [[Skull]]s with its swings.
