Frequently asked questions
How big should a Master Sword cosplay prop be?
The canonical Master Sword overall length is 96 cm (3'2"), based on Link at 170 cm (5'7"). For a cosplayer who is 165 cm, proportional scaling brings the overall length to about 93 cm. Use the calculator above to get exact dimensions for your height.
What material should I use for a Master Sword cosplay?
The Master Sword is a mid-size prop at 96 cm canonical length. EVA foam, Worbla, or 3D-printed segments all work well at this scale. For a lightweight build, go with EVA foam over a dowel core. For surface detail, Worbla or resin-coated foam board gives a harder finish that takes paint cleanly.
Is the Master Sword from The Legend of Zelda allowed at conventions?
Yes, as long as it meets your convention's prop policy. Most cons allow props up to 183 cm (6 feet) and require peace-bonding. The Master Sword at canonical size is 96 cm, well within limits for most cosplayers. Build it from foam or similar lightweight material (no metal or sharp edges), and check your specific convention's rules before attending.
