Device:

Sasword Zecter

- Sasword Zecter allows Tsurugi Kamishiro to transform into Kamen Rider Sasword. As with all of the Zecters, Sasword has two basic forms that the user can transform into: Masked Form and Rider Form.
- In order to initiate the transformation into Masked Form, the Sasword Zecter is inserted onto the Sasword Yaiver. By pinching the Sasword Zecter's tail whilst on the Sasword Yaiver, the user can Cast Off and enter Rider Form. Releasing and pinching its tail again allows the user to perform the Rider Slash attack. However, unlike other Zecters, the Sasword Zecter lacks a Put On command.
