'''One-handed weapons''' are a category of weapons in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. One-handed weapons have many differences from other ''Breath Of The Wild'' weapons categories. When you preform a [[Perfect Dodge]] and get a [[Flurry Rush]], you will get 8 hits out of it. One-handed weapons are lighter, and therefore quicker, but require four hits before a critical hit. Holding the attack button charges up a [[Spin Attack]]. [[Link]] can use a [[Shield]] while a one-handed weapon is drawn.
