"I offer you more than help Kratos; I offer you power! I offer you the Blade of Olympus; it was this blade that ended the Great War and defeated the Titans! Drain your godly powers into the sword Kratos, only then will you reach your full potential."

- Zeus

The Blade of Olympus is a weapon from the God of War series.

Description
The Blade of Olympus was used by Zeus to defeat the Titans in the great war between the gods and the Titans. With a single swing, Zeus defeated all the Titans and ended the war, banishing the Titans to Tartarus.

In God of War II, this weapon plays a major role in the story, Zeus offers it to Kratos, who initially refuses it but later uses it to defeat the Colossus of Rhodes, however, the weapon drains Kratos' power and turns him into a mortal again and makes him lose all of his God's power. The weapon is only seen again when Kratos finally fights Zeus; Kratos uses it against Zeus, almost successfully killing him in the process, however, even though the Blade clearly penetrated Zeus' stomach three times, it wasn't enough to kill him. Kratos however, accidentally killed Athena

In God of War III, Kratos accidentally lets this Blade fall off Mount Olympus and it ended up on the Underworld, but Kratos manages to take it back. He uses it to kill Perses, Cronos and Gaia.

Trivia

 * Despite having a major role in the story, the Blade of Olympus never existed in the real Greek mythology.
 * Zeus is immune to the Blade's attacks, since he never dies because of it.
 * The Blade needs godly power to be used, much like the Mjolnir.
