TotK Forest Dweller's Sword: Attack, Durability and Locations

Forest Dweller’s Sword is a one-handed weapon in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The game describes it this way: “A living, wooden Korok sword with a decayed blade. Bursting materials attached to the tip can be reused again and again.” This page gives its numbers and maps every place the game puts one.

The decayed Forest Dweller’s Sword is the one found on the surface; the intact one, with its own Compendium number, is covered in pristine weapons.

• Lying in the world: placed in the scenery, free to pick up.
