Bolt-Sword

Bolt Sword in Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light.

A sword whose lightning strikes are guided by a god of thunder and paralyze targets.

The Thunder Blade (サンダーブレード, Sandā Burēdo?), also known as Thunderblade, Thunder Hatchet, Tempestblade, and Bolt Sword, is a recurring weapon in the Final Fantasy series. It is a counterpart to the Flametongue and Icebrand swords that it is Lightning-elemental, but does not appear as often. A similar weapon, the Coral Sword, sometimes appears in games where the Thunderblade does not, fulfilling the same role as a Lightning-elemental sword.
