Thunderblades are a type of Weapon forged and refined by Lightning from the hills of Hyrule Ridge.[1] They belong to the Magic Gear equipment archetype, a series of Weapons with elemental properties.[2] Whenever the blade shines gold, any Enemies struck by it will be electrocuted.[1] These swords are commonly found in Hyrule Field and West Necluda.

Despite their elemental nature, Thunderblades can still conduct Electricity and attract Lightning when equipped during a Thunderstorm due to being made of metal. However, this also means that they can be picked up using the Magnesis Rune. While they sink if they are dropped in the Water, they are also unable to burn when exposed to Fire or a Scorching Climate.
