The White Sword in the original The Legend of Zelda

The White Sword is a recurring sword in the Zelda series, appearing in The Legend of Zelda and The Minish Cap. Despite these two swords sharing the same name, the nature of the White Sword in The Minish Cap makes it impossible that it is the same White Sword in The Legend of Zelda.

The Legend of Zelda

In The Legend of Zelda, the White Sword is the second sword which Link receives, following the Wooden Sword and before the Magical Sword. It can be obtained once Link has five hearts in his heart meter. The young hero can wield this sword by speaking to the Old Man in a cave in the North-East of Hyrule near a waterfall, which is guarded by a Lynel.

The Minish Cap

In The Minish Cap, the White Sword is the reforged Picori Blade and replaces Link's first sword, Smith's Sword. The White Sword is infused with the four Elements, and it can grow in power as it is infused with the power of more Elements. Three elements make it the empowered White Sword, and all four elements transform it into the Four Sword.

Each time Link enfuses the White Sword with Elements, the hilt of the sword will change colors, and Link will be able to make more copies of himself when he charges a Spin Attack over special tiles, with the maximum copies being four.
