Blade Trap
Blade Trap is an inanimate enemy first introduced in The Legend of Zelda. Its only 3D appearance was in Ocarina of Time.
Legend of Zelda
These traps were held in the corner of some rooms in dungeons. If Link were to get in the path of them, they'd fly towards him until they hit each other, then retracted.

Link's Awakening
Ocarina of Time
These spiked obstacles are invulnerable and come in two varieties: ones that move back and forth and ones that try to slice and dice you if you get close. Either way, they cannot be defeated, so just wait for them to get on the far side of you and sneak past. In some puzzles, you can use blocks or statues to put their path so they don't have much wiggle room.
