Effective against Most enemies

Link has held a sword in his left hand for every game in the Legend of Zelda series, the only exception being in the Wii version of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. This was changed to be more compatible with the Wii's controls. The most famous blade in the series is the legendary Master Sword.

The sword is Link's primary weapon throughout the series. Most of the time, Link starts out with a relatively weak sword (such as the Wooden Sword or the Kokiri Sword) and aquires a more powerful one (such as the Master Sword or the Magical Sword) later on in the game.

[edit] Receiving swords

In the Zelda series swords can be received many ways. In every Zelda game Link receives an inferior sword early on the game, such as the Kokiri Sword in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time or the Hero's Sword in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.

In most Zelda games you can sometimes use a second, third or even fourth sword. Sometimes other swords are not needed for completing Link's quest, such as Biggoron's Sword and the White Sword. In other instances, specific swords are needed to overcome obstacles, such as the Light Sword and the Master Sword.

The sword is always equipped to Link's person in most games of The Legend of Zelda series, with the exception of swords in The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening,The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons.
