Own One of the Most Famous Video Game Swords Ever: The Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword

Ryu Hyabusa is the star of Ninja Gaiden. He is on a quest to recover a stolen sword and dole out revenge on those who killed his clan. He is a super ninja and uses his Dragon Sword as his main weapon. The sword has been passed down through the Hayabusa Ninja Clan. The legend behind the Ninja Gaiden sword is that it was carved from the fangs of a dragon. The sword was passed to Ryu from his father because of his bravery during a fight.

How Ryu Useds his Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword

The Dragon Sword is a one handed sword that Ryu uses in order to attack his enemies with a move called the "Flying Swallow." The Dragon Sword (aka the Ninja Gaiden Sword) is light weight allowing Ryu to jump through the air and kill his enemies with a downward slashing move. The sword is extremely sharp and lethal.

Another light weight one handed sword at Ryu's disposal is the Kitetsu. He can perform another signature move called, "Izuna Drop." The drop consists of Ryu jumping through the air while holding his swords, landing on his opponent and driving them into the ground. Similar to a piledriver but in Ninja style. These moves could not be done with a heavier, bulkier sword. Although Ryu has other weapons at his disposal, they are cumbersome and restrict his movements.
