The Wooden Sword is an early game melee weapon, and the weakest of the seven wooden swords. It is considered a significant upgrade from the starting Copper Shortsword due to its higher damage and broadsword arc motion which allows you to push enemies further from your character, and it is therefore recommended to craft this sword as soon as possible.

On the Windows Phone version Windows Phone and 3DSNintendo 3DS version versions, all newly created characters begin with a Wooden Sword instead of a Copper Shortsword. On these versions, it inflicts less damage than the Copper Shortsword; this disadvantage may be negated by the fact that it can strike flying enemies (unlike the Copper Shortsword).

Its best modifier is Legendary.
