261  (266Master Mode) Ancient Bladesaw	Description This two-handed sword was forged using ancient Sheikah technology. Its unique rotating blades give it impressive cutting power that will slice enemies to shreds.
	Common Locations Unknown
	Properties Atk 55

Ancient Bladesaws can be made by providing the Ancient Oven at the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab with 15 Ancient Screws, 5 Ancient Shafts, 2 Ancient Cores, and 1,000 Rupees. They are made using Sheikah Ancient Technology, and their unique rotating blades give them a strong cutting power. They are considered Ancient Soldier Gear, an archetype of equipment created by Robbie.

Being made of Ancient Technology, Ancient Bladesaws will deal additional damage when used against Guardian-type Enemies, are unable to burn when exposed to Fire or a Scorching Climate, and cannot be picked up with the Magnesis Basic Rune. They do float on Water, however, and they will not attract Lightning during Thunderstorms or conduct Electricity.
