Biggoron's Sword is the last sword Link can receive during his journey to save [[Hyrule]]. It is tied with the Giant's Knife, see above, power wise, but will not break.

It is given to Link by [[Biggoron]] after finishing a long [[Ocarina of Time Biggoron's Sword Trading Sequence|Trading Sequence]]. It is a rather lengthy side quest, but it is well worth it as Biggoron's Sword does double the damage of the Master Sword. | Biggoron's Sword is the last sword Link can receive during his journey to save [[Hyrule]].

Upon gaining access to Snowhead, Link can bring his Kokiri Sword into the Mountain Smithy located in the [[Mountain Village]]. If Link pays him 100 [[rupee]]s, he will sharpen it, upgrading it to the [[Razor Sword]] (if Link has not defeated [[Goht]] yet, he must bring [[Hot Spring Water]] to thaw the furnace). This sword does double the damage of the Kokiri Sword, but it will break and return to the original after 100 swings.
