it's a sword to me what Omni Legacy said is right. Sora does treat the keyblade as another weapon

:mog: everyone knows that. the keybalde represents the sword that you can choose at the beginning of the game...but i do like llamas ^_^ :mog:

In the beginning of the game you have to choose between three different attributes, a sword, a shield, and a magic rod....and when you pick the sword you get the keyblade in the beginning battle...its a sword.

[Jalbrean]

You get the keyblade no matter which you choose (Sword, shield, staff) The theory doesn't hold water. ;p

[eternalshiva]

xD It just has to do with your stats... not your weapon!

[Xander]

I agree that the keyblade is a weapon in it's own right, not exclusively a sword or spear or whatever.... it does a lot of things...it's a keyblade! And everything else lemonation said

[blue_midget192]

well as i'v not actually played the game i cannot comment on what happens in the game but on the face of it it seams to be a sword thus indicated by the word "blade" however the comment people have made about it being used as other things mean that its must be a distant realative of the sword but an actual original weapon in its own right.

If it IS a sword, it's an incredibly dull one...

It's A SWORD!!!

The keyblade is part of the trinity which is the Shield the Magic Rod and the Sword!!!

Look... at the beginning you are to choose one of the three... the Shield the magic Rod or the Sword.

Look at Donald and Goofy.

Goofy has a Shield, Donald has a Magic Rod, and I'll let you guess what Sora's has.

Actually, those are with respect to stats. If they meant for one to be a keyblade they would have shaped it like a keyblade. Those 3 have nothing to do with the plot, or the selection of weapons. They were just added to add some more customizability to the game.

has any1 noticed that sora holds the keyblade in the position which makes him hit people with the rounded edge. I find that pretty wierd. So if i had to choose what kind of weopon it was i would have to say a club ( thats what sora treats it like ). Riku held his the right way ( the way that meant he hit people with the axe-blade part of the keyblade. Also i'm not sure how you can call the keyblade a sword. Its practically blunt except for the part at the top. which is exactly what an axe looks like. I voted axe.

Well, it depnds on what form the keyblade is in... It always acts as a key, so thats given. But it seems to be slightly different each time...

For instance, the kingdom key is just a rod. there is no 'blade' persay. Its like hitting someone with a staff.. except worse becuase it has the little key-bit thing on the end. Ouch.

But keyblades like lionheart, pumpkin king, and oblivion are all thin metal, and could conciveably be sharpened so as to be a 'blade'

Then there's the metal chocobo, which is basically a long metal 2x4.

There was others that were more blades like, and others that were not so much... oathkeeper was a blade, but if memory serves, fairy harp was a short, long-knife length magic enhancer.

Keyblade= thingy to beat baddies over the head with

Oh, and the other keyblade weilder (ansem? or was that riku's... anyway) was definatly a blade. and a nasty one at that.

[Pheesh]

The only reason i'm worried about this ( and for the record i like sora just as much as the next guy) is because I think sora might be a bit of a weakling. Well not so much a weakling, but he just dosn't seem to be the manliest of all people. When i first noticed this i tried to deny it by saying it was so if KH started kids fighting each other at least they would be hitting each other with blunt parts of knives and axes. But that didn't cut it because riku fights with the sharp part of his keyblade. Spoiler: also when sora see's kairi in hallow bastion and says "open your eyes" he dosn't sound to musculant. I pray that i'm wrong ( it dosn't right that the keyblade master should be a sissy) but i may need a bit of convincing.
Any feedback???
