Giant's Knife

The Giant's Knife is a recurring weapon in the, first appearing in.

Location and Uses
In order to obtain the Giant's Knife in, Link must open Medigoron's shop with his Bombs as a child. When spoken to as a child, Medigoron tells the young hero that he is working on "something really cool," but that it will take five to six years to complete. When Link returns as an adult, the Giant's Knife will be finished, and it may be purchased for 200 Rupees. The Giant's Knife greatly resembles the Biggoron's Sword, however the blade will entirely break off after 8 hits or if Link strikes a wall, turning it into the "Broken Giant's Knife." The Broken Sword can still be used but will only have 1/4 the power of the fixed version. While wielding the Broken Sword, the Spin Attack cannot be used.

The Giant's Knife can only be used by Link as an adult and must be held with two hands, thereby precluding the use of a Shield.

Hyrule Warriors
The Giant's Knife appears as Impa's starting weapon in. It does not resemble the Giant's Knife from Ocarina of Time, instead more resembling an actual giant-sized knife. It was crafted by the finest Goron smithy and is strenuous for Humans to use, despite its raw power. It is obtained after completing the first chapter.

By pressing the Strong Attack button, Impa can dash into enemies.

Trivia

 * Strangely, if Link were to avoid ever obtaining a Giant's Knife and then were to instead skip to getting the Biggoron's Sword, Medigoron will still talk to Link as if he has a working, non-broken Giant's Knife even though it is in fact a Biggoron's Sword.
 * Ocarina of Time contains unused text for the Giant's Knife, meant to be displayed when it is exchanged for the Biggoron's Sword, provided that Link possesses the Giant's Knife. The final version makes no mention of the replacement, and instead the Giant's Knife is simply discarded.
