Edges of Duality are double handed Sheikah Weapons that were crafted using Sheikah Ancient Technology for the Knights of Hyrule, who were unfamiliar with the single edged blades traditionally favored by the Sheikah.[1] They belong to the Sheikah Gear equipment archetype, which includes all Weapons created by the Sheikah.[3] They have a brown blade, blue and gold handle, and a black cross guard. The swords themselves are carried in open black sheaths that, along with the cross guards, are engraved with the Crest of the Sheikah.

Edges of Duality can be found at various locations within Hyrule Castle and the Gerudo Highlands. One may also randomly appear inside a Treasure Chest if the Super Smash Bros. Series Sheik amiibo is scanned with the amiibo Rune.

Edges of Duality are made of metal, and will therefore attract Lightning if they are equipped during Thunderstorms and conduct Electricity. They will sink if dropped in Water, but they can be picked up again and manipulated using the Magnesis Rune. Unlike wooden Weapons, they will not burn if exposed to Fire or a Scorching Climate.
