In Breath of the Wild, Traveler's Swords are a common, weak sword often used by travelers to defeat small Enemies.[1] Though it is fairly durable, it is unreliable due to its low attack power.[1] They are often found in Hyrule Field and West Necluda, either abandoned or in use by Monsters.

Traveler's Swords can also be obtained by using the amiibo Rune to scan the following amiibos:

During "The Weapon Connoisseur" Side Quest, Nebb in Hateno Village will ask Link to bring him several different Weapons to see. The first Weapon he asks for is a Traveler's Sword.[3] As a reward for bringing him a Traveler's Sword, Nebb gives Link a Red Rupee.[4]

Traveler's Swords are made from metal and will therefore attract Lightning if they are equipped during a Thunderstorm, and they will also conduct Electricity. They are magnetic, which means they can be picked up and manipulated using the Magnesis Rune on the Sheikah Slate. If they are dropped in the Water, they will sink.

Traveler's Swords art part of the Traveler's Gear archetype of equipment, which is known to be used by travelers for self-defense.[5]
