The Phantom Sword is the legendary sword that was featured in The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass.
Information[edit]
The Phantom Sword is a special sword that was created from a combination of the mystical Sands of Time with three rare pure metals. The original Phantom Sword was an artifact that was forged by the servants of the Ocean King during the first great battle against Bellum, and it seemed to play a vital role in his defeat. It was lost over the ages, but Zauz, a blacksmith descended from the original makers, offered to forge a new sword for Link. Link only had to seek out the pure metals that Zauz needed: Crimsonine, Azurine and Aquanine. The Phantom Sword's sacred power could only be sustained by those particular metals. Zauz forged the sword using the metals once Link brought them, but he was only able to make the blade.
Once the blade was brought to Oshus, he was able to form the handle by using the Phantom Hourglass. This finally completed Link's Phantom Sword. The Phantom Sword was powerful enough to slay Phantoms and protected Link from the Temple of the Ocean King's curse. This sword also had control over time and could stop time with the help of the Phantom Spheres produced by Ciela. It is uncertain what happened to the sword following the adventure, although the empty Hourglass was received by Link, which presumably reduced the sword to being a useless blade.
