Anacondrai Blades

“An Anacondrai sword. They are the sharpest blade in existence, fit for the greatest warrior to ever do battle in Ninjago.”

— Master Chen to Kai in "The Forgotten Element"

Information
First appearance	Spellbound (flashback) 70745 Anacondrai Crusher
Status	Intact

Anacondrai Blades (also referred to as Anacondrai swords) are the main weapons used by the Anacondrai tribe and a cult known as the Anacondrai warriors. They are long, bone crafted swords with jagged purple edges on the blade. The weapons were heavily utilized during the Serpentine War by Arcturus and his hordes of Anacondrai, although when the generals of the Tribe were banished to the Cursed Realm and their armies were imprisoned, the blades were discarded. The handle itself appears to be a snake skull.

Years later, when Chen would build up his cult of Anacondrai worshippers, he managed to gather hundreds of the blades for his followers to use. These weapons would prove more useful upon their transformation into fake Anacondrai, at which point they fought the Elemental Masters at the Corridor of Elders. After the battle was over, the blades were once again lost, either being discarded once more or brought to the Cursed Realm when Chen and his army were banished there.

Trivia

• The Anacondrai tribe wielded these blades, though it is unknown if they also wielded Anacondrai spears.
  • As for the Anacondrai warriors, most of them wielded spears, while some wielded the blades.
  • Before the Spell of Transformation's completion, the warriors wielded Anacondrai Blades with jagged tan edges, as evidenced by a few warriors carrying them in "The Forgotten Element".
  • Following the completion of the spell, the warriors would wield these blades with crystalline purple edges. This shows that there are two versions of the blades.
• As mentioned by Chen, they are the sharpest weapon in Ninjago, as seen when one cut through a cutlass wielded by Garmadon in said episode, and another cut through a chunk of rock with ease.
