The Swallow (つばめ tsubame?) is Crono's fourteenth-level katana in Chrono Trigger.
In the original SNES/PS 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 Guardian Helm is generally considered better as an equipment choice (since Crono has stronger katana available), but for item completionists the Swallow is recommended since there are other Guardian Helms in the game.
Acquiring the Swallow
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.
