Also known as the "'''Broken Giant's Knife'''", the Broken Sword is the handle and portion of the blade remaining from the Giant's Knife in {{OOT}}. The remaining handle can still be used as a weapon, but will only inflict ¼ the damage of the original Giant's Knife with a reduced range comparable to that of the [[Kokiri Sword]]. If [[Link]] returns the Broken Giant's Knife to [[Medigoron]], he will forge a new one for 200 [[Rupee]]s.

Oddly, though most of the blade and therefore weight is absent, Link still requires both hands in order to wield the Broken Giant's Knife.

Not so much referred to as the "broken sword" in {{TMC}}, Link receives the broken handle of the Picori Blade early in the game, which [[Melari]] will reforge for later in the game.
:::K2L, there are definitely better ways of talking to other editors (especially since he was simply asking about his template removal, and would return it to the page if there was dissent), you for one, should know this! :( As for wasting readers' time, Chris did write a lot of applicable information and content with relevance. Put simply, his verbose writing style clouded the meaning of what should have been simple sentences. I restructured many of the sentences with run-ons and the article's layout, while maintaining the relevant intention Chris had in the first place. Ironically, the length of the article now is about as short as it was the moment before Chris struck a pen to it! {{:User:Cipriano/sig}} 22:27, 18 November 2011 (EST)

What I meant was that the symbol is not the Sheikah Eye, it merely resembles it. Veran for instance bears an eye symbol but it's not the one associated with the Sheikah. [[User:Zeldafan1982|Zeldafan1982]] ([[User talk:Zeldafan1982|talk]]) 03:18, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

:Veran's eye has an entirely different shape, whereas the symbol on the Timeshift Stones are clearly meant to be a more stylized version of the Sheikah Eye Symbol as it still retains the basic shape.

Appearances

Ocarina of Time

Broken Giant's Knife

Main article: Giant's Knife
OoT3D Broken Giant's Knife Icon

Also known as the "Broken Giant's Knife", the Broken Sword is the handle and portion of the blade remaining from the Giant's Knife in Template:OOT. The remaining handle can still be used as a weapon, but will only inflict ¼ the damage of the original Giant's Knife with a reduced range comparable to that of the Kokiri Sword. If Link returns the Broken Giant's Knife to Medigoron, he will forge a new one for 200 Rupees. Oddly, though most of the blade and therefore weight is absent, Link still requires both hands in order to wield the Broken Giant's Knife.

If Link completes the Ocarina of Time Trading Sequence, he can obtain the sturdier Biggoron's Sword, which will not break no matter how many times it's used.

Broken Goron's Sword

Main article: Biggoron's Sword
OoT3D Broken Goron's Sword Icon

The Broken Goron's Sword is the sixth item in the Adult Trading Sequence of Template:OOT. It is identical to the Broken Giant's Knife in every way, except for the fact that it cannot be used as a weapon. Link obtains the Broken Goron's Sword after he returns the Poacher's Saw to the Boss Carpenter in Gerudo Valley. This part of the Trading Sequence can only be completed if Link has acquired Epona or the Longshot. The Broken Goron's Sword can be traded to Biggoron for the Prescription.

Oracle of Ages

Main article: Noble Sword

In Template:OOA, the Broken Sword is the last trading sequence item, and becomes the Noble Sword when Link goes with Patch to repair it at the Restoration Wall. Link receives it from the Old Zora in a cave near Rafton's House in exchange for the Sea Ukulele.

The Minish Cap

Main article: Picori Blade

Not so much referred to as the "broken sword" in The Minish Cap, Link receives the broken handle of the Picori Blade early in the game, which Melari will reforge for later in the game.
