Wooden Shield

The Wooden Shield is a a small shield made of wood, as the name implies. It is the first shield Link receives in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It can be obtained by buying from Malo's shop. However, it can only be used by Young Link and it will burn up if touched by fire. This makes it useful until Dodongo's Cavern, where the great deal of lava and fire makes it almost certain the shield will be destroyed if Link attempts to use it.
