The '''Magic Hammer''' is infamous for reappearing, but it always seemed to have a different name. It was trusty and despite its name never actually used any magic.  
The '''Magic Hammer''' is a type of [[Hammer]] that appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]''. Although being called a 'magic' hammer, it does not use up [[Link|Link's]] Magic Meter in either game it is in.


== Uses ==
==Appearances==
It is first called the Magic Hammer in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''. It is found in the [[Dark Palace (A Link to the Past)]] and can be used to help defeat that level's boss, the [[Helmasaur King]]. It is useful for killing enemies, flipping them over by pounding it on the floor, or penetrating their shells with direct hits. It also works for whacking down "mole heads" and flattening other various things blocking Link's path, such as certain fence posts. Its main limitation is its short range.
