The '''Sword''' is [[Link]]'s primary weapon in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. The sword is one of the first weapons Link obtains, the other being the [[Shield]]. The Sword is also the most crucial weapon Link obtains, as it is used to defeat most foes he encounters. The Sword is also used to break open pots, trigger switches, and slash grass. In certain ''The Legend of Zelda'' games, the sword can be used to detect whether a wall can be destroyed with a [[Bomb]] through the hollow clang sound it makes when hitting a suspicious wall. Link holds the Sword in his left hand in most titles; he only uses his right hand in the [[Nintendo Wii|Wii]] version of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''. Swords such as the [[Giant's Knife]], [[Biggoron's Sword]], and the [[Great Fairy's Sword]] require both hands to hold. Link acquires many different swords along his quests, and he can also learn various sword techniques and skills.
