The Pure-Iron Sword is a craftable Pre-Hardmode Broadsword. It has a custom swing animation that causes it to slash up and down, dealing ice damage. Striking enemies four times consecutively causes the weapon to perform a spinning slash that deals double damage and creates an aura of Pure Chill. It is the Good Route counterpart to the Dragon Cleaver.
Its best modifier is Legendary.

Notes
- The Pure-Iron Sword can destroy Ice projectiles if struck by the sword.
- Although lacking a projectile, the Pure-Iron Sword is much more consistent than the Dragon Cleaver's random swings.
- However, the Dragon Cleaver has a far higher potential damage and is a good bit safer due to its ability to fire projectiles.
- Notably, the Ice element's chilling effect makes the ability to land consistent melee hits with this weapon far more viable.
Trivia
- In previous versions of the mod, the Pure-Iron Sword inflicted Chilled when held, which did nothing as enemies aren't affected by it.
- This extended to all weapons crafted from Pure-Iron Alloy.
