The {{nihongo|'''Swallow'''|つばめ|tsubame}} is [[Crono]]'s fourteenth-level [[katana]] in {{CT}}.  
Item description: "A masterwork blade with a fine edge."


In the original SNES/PS/Steam versions of the game, there is only one in the entire game, found in the [[Forest Ruins]] ([[Present]]), where players have the option of choosing between this weapon or a [[Guardian Helm]]. The Swallow is the more recommended of the two since there are other Guardian Helms in the game and the Swallow is stronger than any of the katanas Crono can obtain between the events of first entering Antiquity to the Ocean Palace.


==Acquiring the Swallow==
The katana called the Swallow is an obtainable sword for the character Crono in Chrono Trigger.  To obtain the blade you must first take your amulet to the Mammom Machine in Zeal, and allow it to absorb some of the machines power.  After this you can open up all of the mysterious black boxes as well as take down the pyramid like barrier that appears in the present where Ozzies fort used to be.  Go to the barrier and disengage it, a Nu should then appear and thank you by offering you one of two items, an ofensive and defensive item. Take the offensive one to recieve the Swallow, it appears as a blue metal sword, adds plus 3 speed and has a really good attack.
After charging [[Marle]]'s [[pendant]] at the [[Mammon Machine]] in [[Zeal]] ([[Antiquity]]), travel to the [[Forest Ruins]] in the [[Present]] and disable the prism barrier. A [[Nu]] should then appear and offer one of two items, an offensive and defensive item. The offensive item is the Swallow, while the defensive item is known as the [[Guardian Helm]].
 
==Name Origin==
[[Serge]], the protagonist of {{CC}}, wields weapons called [[Swallow (Chrono Cross)|Swallow]]s, which may be a reference to this weapon. The Japanese name of this weapon is ''tsubame'' however, which is the Japanese word for "Swallow" (the bird), whereas in the Japanese version of Chrono Cross, Serge's weapon simply goes by the English word "Swallow" (written in katakana).
