Sword

Link's Uncle will give this sword to Link early in the game as he enters Hyrule Castle. He will use this blade during the game until he can find a better one.

Master Sword

Main article: Master Sword

Once Link has found all three Pendants of Virtue, he may enter the Lost Woods and retrieve the Master Sword from its pedestal.

Tempered Sword

Image:Tempered Sword Sprite LttP.gif The Tempered Sword is the third level of sword. It is acquired when the Dwarven Smith is reunited with his partner. At this point, the pair will temper the Master Sword for you for a price. The tempering makes the sword much stronger, gives it an orange/reddish glow, and causes it to make a deep swing sound as opposed to the usual slash sound. It is an upgraded and improved version of the Master Sword. It is considered level three in the sword strengths in this game. It has double the strength of the original Master Sword, but when you have full hearts, the beam that you can use with the original Master Sword still has the same power of the first one.

Golden Sword

When Link throws the Master Sword or Tempered Sword into the Fat Fairy's fountain within the Pyramid of Power, she transforms it into the Golden Sword, which has a golden blade and green hilt, and is four times stronger than the Master Sword. In addition, it has the ability to break pots (skulls in the Dark World).
