What is the best sword in the Legend of Zelda?

So that the discussion doesn't get too out of hand let's stick with the classic Legend of Zelda for the NES.

I'm inclined to go with this.

Now here's my thinking. The Magical sword is stronger than the White sword. The White sword is stronger than the Wooden sword. Also, the Magical sword is much more slanty than both the White and Wooden swords. I know it's controversial but I'm trying to stir up some provocative thinking here.

    This would probably work better in G&T.

    No, I'm pretty sure it would go over just as badly there.

    Try SE++, just for shits and giggles.

    Video game stuff, debate or not, tends to go in G&T.
    Stupid stuff usually goes in SE++.

    It's hard to have a debate when the question has an unambiguous, indisputable correct answer.

    I'll play the Devil's advocate.

    The wooden sword is obviously superior! It does less damage, and is available much sooner than the ruling class white or magic swords. Also, the white sword is attainable by entering your name as Zelda, so it is favored by the dishonest.

    Wooden sword.

    Sword of the people.
