One-handed weapons are a category of weapons in 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.
