Black Iron Great Sword

The «Black Iron Great Sword» is a weapon used by Kirito in the Fairy Dance arc.

Description
The «Black Iron Great Sword» is the unnamed sword, purchased from an NPC by Kirito and used in his initial run through «ALfheim Online». He purchases this extremely large and heavy sword in Sylph territory after appraising his lightweight starting-gear sword as lousy and deciding that all other swords in the local shops were too lightweight for his taste.

In appearance, this black great sword is almost as tall as Kirito's Spriggan form, nearly touching the ground when sheathed along his backside. Leafa speculates that the sword was made for an Imp or Gnome character due to its size (though Spriggans are a multi-weapon race) and is amazed that Kirito, who's avatar seemed to have a speed-build, chose such a heavy sword. Its immense weight is just right for Kirito as he is able to even block arrows while wielding it with one hand. Even though the sword is nothing special in appearance or power, in the hands of Kirito it is able to match against both Demonic Sword Gram and Holy Sword Excaliber, though the latter was used by Oberon, who did not have much experience with the sword.
