Sage of Water
I think this is wrong; wasn't it the Sage of Water who attacked Ganondorf and was subsequently killed by him? I'm sure there are six pillars around the Mirror of Twilight, and the Water emblem is the broken one (The Seventh Sage in OoT was Zelda, wasn't it?) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Adam660@legacy41957735 (talk) 21:28, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
- this IS wrong the caption under the Sage of water picture should be changed to the sage of light... look at the symbol on his clothes. It's not the water sage symbol it's the Light Sage's symbol. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lilblkbwoi@legacy41957951 00:16, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
- But it was the Sage of Water that stabbed Ganondorf with the Sword. The picture of the sage should have it's symbol changed to the water symbol. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Link of Vey@legacy41958098 (talk) 18:34, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
- Sage Medallions. Look at light, and then look at water... The symbol on the sage's clothes is that of the water sage...--Magnus orion (talk) 01:35, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
- Please ignore the above comment... I looked at the picture wrong--Magnus orion (talk) 01:37, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Type of Sword
"The sword's shape seems to boast a type of long sword, though its size suggests that it is more of a katana-like blade instead."
How does the size imply a katana? A katana is slightly curved with a single bladed side and a relatively small, usually round guard. This sword is clearly straight and bladed on both sides with an elaborate guard. I agree that it's probably a long sword, but it bears similarities to European swords and Chinese straight swords, not katanas. Anyone else agree? (I don't want to go changing the page without a second opinion). --Wodo, Sage of Mediocrity (talk) 17:41, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
- I'm no expert on swords, and from the look of it, you seem to know what you're talking about. So feel free to change it to what would sound more correct. Dany36 (talk) 19:12, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you! Updates made. This thing rather reminds me of a massive Chinese executioner's sword I once saw in a museum (about 6 feet in length), but I haven't been able to find any information since. --Wodo, Sage of Mediocrity (talk) 01:40, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Move: Sword of the Sages > Ganondorf's Sword
I'm proposing that we move this article from a fan-created name to more appropriate title (not dissimilar to the move of Anti-Master Sword > Demise's Sword that we did awhile back). The sword is explicitly titled "Ganondorf's Sword" in Hyrule Historia, and is literally Ganondorf's sword in the game, so this seems like an appropriate title to use. Using fan-made names seems unprofessional, and gives the impression that the sword itself is of significance to the sages (when for all we know, Ganondorf just happened to snag a generic sword the sages use for executions). --Dorsal Axe (talk) 17:04, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
- I'm still pretty new to this Wiki(actually not, but I'm new to editing it) so I don't know any other way to show my support but to say so. --Dratini (talk) 08:55, 4 February 2014(UTC/GMT)
- I think what it boils down to is that it simply isn't Ganondorf's sword. The sword belonged to the sages. This would be comparable to moving Kokiri Sword to a page called "Link's sword". I would support having "Ganondorf's sword" redirect to Sword of the Sages, but not moving it all to another page. --Plyers (talk) 05:25, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
- I should also point out that Hyrule Historia calls it "Ganondorf's sword" in that case, so it's not a proper noun (the section title is captilized just because its a section title). It's not the title of the sword, just a description. However, it's also worth noting that the current title is entirely conjecture too. --SnorlaxMonster 15:04, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
- If I can give my opinion, we should move Sword of the Sages two Ganondorf's Sword. MHNinja479 needs a life (talk) 18:38, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
- Well if not Ganondorf's Sword, how about "Sage's Sword" or "Execution Sword". Either of those are fairly descriptive, which would be superior to a made-up formal fan name. --Dorsal Axe (talk) 09:50, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
Official name
the suggested name was close actually. In Breath of the Wild the sword can be unlocked via the SSB4 Ganondorf amiibo. its official title is The Sword of the Six Sages. Source. So I propose we move the name of this sword to its official title as given in BotW.

Move from "Unusable Swords?"
because technically it can now be used --Draph91 (talk) 16:31, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
- Yes. The only reason it hasn't been moved is because it's not a high priority action. TriforceTony (talk) 20:18, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
