Swords are perhaps the most famous weapons in the Legend of Zelda series. Coupled with a shield, swords are the signature weapons of the protagonist, Link. Link has used a sword in every game of the Zelda series, and in some games he has used as many as four or five distinct swords.

Swords are often also important in the plots of various games - in particular, sections of some games require Link to either find a certain magical sword (such as the Master Sword) or upgrading his current sword to become more powerful. Notable swords that Link has used in the series include the Master Sword (which has appeared in many games of the series), the Four Sword and the Phantom Sword (from the game Phantom Hourglass).

Other characters in the Zelda series have also used swords, on occasion. Princess Zelda herself has occasionally used or carried swords, although rarely in actual combat (see Zelda's Swords). Various enemies have also used swords, including (but not limited to):
