Zelda franchise strategy guide/Items/Magical Sword

The Magical Sword is the most powerful sword Link receives in the original The Legend of Zelda. In the game, the Magical Sword is twice as strong as the White Sword and four times stronger than the regular Sword. According to the instruction manual to The Adventure of Link, Link carries an otherwise unnamed "Magical Sword" in the sequel, which may be this sword. The official English Zelda website claims that the Magical Sword is the Master Sword. This may cause some confusion because the Master Sword originally had a red hilt, despite the several aesthetic differences.

The Magical Sword also makes an appearance as a weapon for Link in Soul Calibur II (with a matching Magical Shield), but with a different design. In this game, it is a separate weapon from the Master Sword and deals damage even if the target is guarding or blocking.
