The Legend of Zelda, Breath of the Wild, Bokoblin Arm

Weapons in Breath of the Wild come in many forms, from axes and sticks to swords and bows, and even enemy limbs. Axes can be used in combat and also to chop down trees. Every weapon has its own stats, so a stick will be significantly less powerful than a sword. Weapons will break if used too long without repairing them, though ways to repair have not yet been revealed. You can sneak up on enemies and steal their weapons, or pick them up once the enemy has been defeated. Some enemies will sometimes unexpected weapons, like the Bokoblin arm which continues to wriggle its bony fingers as you use it. Heavy weapons like axes and claymores take two hands to wield, so they cannot be used with shields. They can also be used to perform the classic spin attack; Link spins slower with them, but they have bigger swings.
