TotK Knight's Claymore: Attack, Durability and Locations

Knight’s Claymore is a two-handed weapon in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The game describes it this way: “A claymore, now decayed, once carried by knights of Hyrule. It resonates with the desire to protect at all costs and can yield powerful attacks when you’re down to your last heart.” This page gives its numbers and maps every place the game puts one.

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

Where do you get Knight’s Claymore?

The game’s world data places it in 92 spots: 16 in treasure chests, 66 carried by monsters, and 10 lying in the world. The most are near Gerudo Canyon Mine in Gerudo (4).

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

Decayed it has attack 11 and durability 18; intact, 24 and 30. The effect the game gives it: Powerful attacks when you’re down to your last heart. The number is before Fuse; what a fused material adds is in the Fuse guide, and how durability runs down in weapon durability.
