The Giant Blade is a class of Weapon used by Impa in Hyrule Warriors.[name reference needed] It is associated with Water.

Variations[]

The default Giant Blade is the Giant's Knife. The second form of the Giant Blade is Biggoron's Knife, followed by Biggoron's Sword.

The Lv.★ Giant Blade is the 8-Bit Boomerang?, which is based the Boomerang from The Legend of Zelda. It was added to Hyrule Warriors with the Master Quest Pack DLC. In Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition, instead of appearing as a separate Weapon, the 8-Bit Boomerang? replaces Biggoron's Sunblade when the "8-Bit Weapons" Setting is turned on in Game Settings within the Settings menu.
