The Sword of Totsuka, also known as the Sakegari Longsword (酒刈太刀, Sakegari no Tachi; Literally meaning "Sake Cutter Longsword"), is a variant of the Sword of Kusanagi. It is sheathed in a sake jar; the blade is actually the liquid inside the gourd that is released and shaped, rather than a conventional sword. It is an ethereal weapon with an enchanted blade capable of sealing anything it pierces. Those who are stabbed by the sword are drawn into the jar and trapped in a genjutsu-like "world of drunken dreams" for all eternity; by extension, Itachi also managed to remove the Cursed Seal of Heaven from Sasuke by stabbing and removing Orochimaru from Sasuke's body. It can also cut through objects like a normal blade, thereby giving the wielder great versatility in his attacks. Orochimaru sought the sword for all his life and Zetsu commented that he could never find it.

Hyourinmaru
Hyōrinmaru ("Ice Ring") When sealed, Hyōrinmaru looks like a normal katana with the exception of the guard, which is in the shape of a four-pointed bronze-colored star. Its hilt is light blue and sheath dark blue. The sheath completely dissolves when he draws his sword. The sword is somewhat longer than most Zanpakutō, at about 1.4 meters long, making it taller than Hitsugaya, preventing him from wearing it at the hip. Instead he carries it on his back by his green sash over his right shoulder. Hitsugaya is one of four people that carry a Zanpakutō on their back, the others being Ichigo Kurosaki, Love Aikawa, and Hiyori Sarugaki.
Hyōrinmaru is the strongest of all ice-element Zanpakutō in Soul Society. As such, Hitsugaya doesn't need water to be present in order for him to use its abilities. Hitsugaya's control over Hyōrinmaru's power has been shown great enough to use any of its Bankai attacks (with less control) with Shikai
The spirit of Hyōrinmaru is that of a gigantic, ice blue, serpentine ice dragon with large wings and an echoing voice. Hitsugaya has had a close connection to his blade since first awakening his Shinigami powers. Before Tōshirō began training to control his Shinigami powers and leaking reiatsu, Hyōrinmaru would constantly appear in his dreams in an icy landscape (most likely Tōshirō's inner world) and call out to him, although Tōshirō was still not able to hear him. Hitsugaya inner world is seen as an icy landscape easily accessible to him as he enters into a meditative state.

Kubikiri Houcho
It is a very large sword; made of an unbreakable metal, it is made to be used for a variety of purposes. The sword is about 7 and a half feet long from the tip of the blade to the pommel of the handle. The blade is quite broad and thick; it tapers to a backwards curving point at the very top of the blade. There is a hole cut in the top of the sword as well; this can be used for a variety of purposes and is broad enough to fit around a skull. The sword has a notch cut out a bit above the hilt as well; this is used to pin other weapons or for a close range beheading. Lastly, the handle is quite long. This makes it easy to change one's grip onthe sword, and balance it as one swings. The sword's special ability is somewhat the reverse of Samehada's. Rather than steal chakra, Zabuza can store chakra within the blade and/or flow his chakra through it. This allows the sword to act somewhat like the Fist Of Rukt; it develops a gravity field around it that, when swung, if the blade does not connect, can push the enemy or what Zabuza is blocking back a bit. It also allows for more movement in sword fighting, as Zabuza is able to push an enemy sword away. This does not cause any damage, and can come in handy for nonlethal attacks. It should be noted that this field is not always active; Zabuza turns it on and off as necessary. It also can be used to manipulate Zabuza's elements, such as lightning for increased cutting power.After Zabuza death,this swords is taken by Suigetsu
