An unarmed character faces a fight. Another character must give him a sword or other weapon, or something such as a horse needed to enable him to fight. Wrecked Weapon may lead to this or having a sword jam in the wound so the character can't pull it free. It's often a tribute to the fighting skill of the unarmed man or Fire Forged Friendship of the one who gives it — especially if he does not use the Stock Phrase but the other characters do so anyway, or someone else says "Give him your sword." Location may also be significant — throwing a sword to a man who is toe-to-toe with the monster is only prudent (and avoids Throwing Your Sword Always Works). Of course, failure to do that gets the inverse effect, which may shade into The Dog Bites Back, if a Mook refuses to give the Big Bad something without which he is powerless and helpless. Unlike It Was a Gift, this is temporary, especially for the Cool Sword and other weapons not easily replaced. Expect the character to return the weapon after the fight, with thanks. If he is then told to keep the weapon, it transformed into It Was a Gift as well; it is a particularly strong tribute, particularly with the Cool Sword or other unusual weapons. Will certainly occur if needed for Combat by Champion. May occur for Duel to the Death, though the other character may defuse that one. If a bystander questions why the combatant doesn't just attack immediately while the foe is unarmed, the response will usually be because it's proper form. |

In Mort, Death's servant Albert goes back to the Unseen University and starts acting like a Bad Boss. When Death comes to take him back he hisses to the cowardly Rincewind for his staff, but Rincewind doesn't give it. The other wizards praise him afterwards until Rincewind admits he couldn't find the staff. The Librarian makes it clear he took it, with an 'ook'. | |

In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Voldemort takes Lucius Malfoy's wand to fight Harry Potter because Voldemort's own wand is useless against him. When Lucius's wand also proves ineffective and breaks, Voldemort frantically demands Selwyn (another Death Eater) to relinquish his wand, but Harry manages to get to safety before this is required. | |

In Devil May Cry 5, after Dante's sword Rebellion gets shattered by Urizen, Trish tosses him the Devil Sword Sparda to continue the fight. Not that it does him much good, though; Urizen still flattens him regardless. That said, it does come in handy alongside what's left of Rebellion later on when Dante needs to get a Next Tier Power-Up... | |

An interesting variant occurs in the Nibelungenlied. Hagen von Tronje, a heroic/villainous knight trapped in a building with his fellow nobles and warriors, faces the hero Rüdiger von Bechlarn, whom he has previously sworn friendship to (they are forced to fight by a code of honor and oaths). Hagen requests a shield, as his is broken, and Rüdiger offers his. This enables Rüdiger to fulfill his duties as Etzel's vassal (his liege has ordered him to attack Hagen and co.) without completely breaking his oath of friendship to the Nibelungs — he is giving one of them material aid. And so it is significant that Hagen asks Rüdiger for a shield rather than just picking up one of the dozens lying on the ground. |

Done with shields in the duel scene in The 13th Warrior. Each combatant is given three shields to use. When a shield is broken, fighting stops so that the combatant can retrieve his next one. It's a foregone conclusion that once you're out of shields, you're doomed, but it turns out that the older, smaller Viking didn't even need a shield to win at any time. | |

Partially, at the final boss of Kingdom Hearts II. Riku, disabled, passes his keyblade to Sora so that he can deliver a Dual Wielding finishing barrage. And in 358/2 Days, Xion tosses Riku a Keyblade, too. Particularly impressive, as she's technically dead at the time. | |

Happens whenever a character with no weapons is recruited mid-chapter in Fire Emblem. It's normally stated to be "spare weaponry"; examples include the generic soldiers giving Lucius a tome of magic/vulnerary, and in the fan-made hack Tactics Universe, in Chapter 7; Siegfried gives out weapons/vulneraries to the prisoners he rescues... even if your weapons are likely to be breaking. With no "spare weapons" being given out. Um. | |

Near the end of Megan Whalen Turner's The Thief, when Gen parts ways with the magus' party, being pursued on its way back to Sounis by Attolian soldiers, the magus is hurt by Gen's distrust and shouts at him. Gen (the only one not armed and who hid from the last fight up a tree) sighs and tells him, "Leave me a sword, and I'll do my best to slow them down." He regrets it right away, and the magus doesn't take him seriously since everyone knows he's a Street Urchin. Sophos leaves him his, though, since it's no use to him really. Gen lies in wait on top of a large rock and comes very close to wrecking a whole cavalry unit on his own and getting away with it. We learn later that Gen takes the sword by the blunt part the top of the blade because he swore an oath never to hold a sword by the hilt again unless his life was in danger. | |

He-Man is too far away and occupied fighting mooks, so he throws his sword to both break her chains and give her a weapon to defend herself with. In "Evil-Lyn's Plot", Skeletor manages to disarm He-Man and his sword goes flying across the room. Evil-Lyn picks up the sword and throws it to Skeletor. |

Kirby: Played straight in the series when you fight Meta Knight; he will throw you a sword and will not attack until you draw it from the ground. Subverted in Revenge of Meta Knight though, as he will attack after a set period of time. He waits a decent amount of time, considering that the battle takes place on a falling airship. If he waited forever, it'd be suicide. Also subverted in Kirby Star Allies in the same way, but without the threat of impending doom from a falling ship. This is explainable through the influence of the dark heart that's gotten to him, though, as it also gets subverted if you make him mad by knocking down the platform he's standing on when you arrive, and even kicks away the sword at that point! Also happens in Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: after killing Dark Meta Knight, a portal appears and sucks in all four Kirbys. The moment this happens, Meta Knight chucks his sword into the portal, giving you a rather potent weapon to use against the final boss. You can also tell that the Meta Knight you fight in the Radish Ruins is not the real one because he doesn't throw you a sword. In Kirby Super Star Ultra, at the end of Revenge of the King, King Dedede throws Kirby a hammer. |

World of Warcraft: Arthas has Tirion just where he wants him; unfortunately for Arthas, Darion Mograine (who just had a Heel–Face Turn) throws Tirion the corrupted Ashbringer, which he instantly purifies and fights Arthas off with. The images come from the Mists of Pandaria trailer, where a human gives an orc he was just fighting his spare weapon so they can both fight Chen Stormstout (who had just interrupted their own duel). Chen still hands them their asses on a plate. The two are later found in a bar drinking and trying to figure out how exactly they lost to a bear in a hat. In Warlords of Draenor Yrel throws her hammer at Blackhand to stop him killing Durotan, and is seized by Blackhand because she heals Durotan instead of dodging. He returns the favor by throwing her his axe, cue spouting wings of light and cleaving into Blackhand's shoulder. Durotan also picks up her hammer. |

In Return of the Jedi, Luke, Han, and Chewbacca are sentenced to a long and painful death by being forced to jump into a Sarlacc's pit. Luke signals to R2, who is on a gliding barge several hundred yards away, to get his lightsaber ready. Luke then steps off the plank, grabs it, uses it to launch himself in the air while R2 shoots his lightsaber to him, catches the lightsaber, does a front flip, and begins to kick ass. | |

Mazinger Z: In Mazinger-Z vs Great General of Darkness -the movie retold the last chapter of Mazinger Z in a severely improved way, closing off the original series and kicking off the sequel, Great Mazinger-, Kouji has been defeated by the Mykene War Beasts, his Humongous Mecha is utterly trashed, it barely functions, and its weapons are useless. Then Tetsuya shows up piloting Great Mazinger, and as he begins to deliver a sound beating, he throws one of his swords at Mazinger-Z saying "You can use this" (and conveniently and intentionally impaling a Warbeast). Kouji catches the sword, and even though his Humongous Mecha is barely capable to move, he still manages to destroy one of the Mykene War Beasts, and he impales the Mykene commander leading the squad. The sword was returned to Great Mazinger afterwards, along with a heartfelt "Thank you". | |

The Order of the Stick: At one point, Nale "asks" a prison guard for a katana. A hobgoblin promptly kills the weaponless guard with a longsword. Nale then kills the hobgoblin and takes his sword, because he prefers longswords. When a random evil adventuring party appears in the Lawful Good afterlife to attack Roy's family, Roy's grandfather kills the evil cleric with the family's ancestral sword, and then tosses it to Roy to take out the fighter. While staying in a hotel, the group is attacked and Roy asks Elan to hand him his club, only to learn that Elan gave it to the staff for cleaning, along with Roy's broken sword. Roy then asks Elan to lend him his rapier. Turns out Elan sent that off to be cleaned too. |

In ECW, after a Terry Funk vs. Cactus Jack match was interrupted by a run-in by the Public Enemy, Funk asked a fan for a steel chair. The fans tossed several dozen, literally burying Public Enemy. This happened again at a TNA event in 2006. Bubba Ray Dudley called for the fans to give him a chair, and they were more than happy to oblige. No one was buried under them this time, but The James Gang were forced to flee. | |

Warframe: In the PS4 trailer, Excalibur is ambushed by Vor's troops right as he leaves cryo-sleep, meaning he is unarmed and largely helpless. More Tenno arrive to help, and Frost tosses Excalibur a Skana (basic longsword). In the Rescue missions, you can lend your secondary weapon to the rescued prisoner, making the Escort Mission portion easier. |

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare features this trope in the last mission. As your entire team lay injured on a wrecked bridge, the Big Bad executing team members as he walks among them, Capt. Price slides his pistol over to you, enabling you to exact vengeance upon your hapless opponent. This is given a Continuity Nod in Modern Warfare 2, when Capt. Soap MacTavish returns said pistol to Capt. Price five years later. And again in Modern Warfare 3 when Price lays the same pistol on Soap's chest after he dies. |

Played for laughs in Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo. Bobobo's allies want to hand him some weapons to aid him in the fight with the Arc Villain. The battle is taking place in mid-air, so they use a cannon to launch spears, swords, and other sharp weapons up to him. Not surprisingly, Bobobo catches none of them and is instead pierced by most of them. The next weapon they launch is a two-story house. That hits him too. | |

Gladiator: Maximus disarms Commodus in the arena, and Commodus immediately starts demanding one of the surrounding Praetorian Guards to give him a sword. If he hadn't recently and publicly dishonored his own royal guards, they might have given him one. In contrast, Juba had previously thrown Maximus a sword when he didn't ask for one. | |

Near the end of the first act of The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, Geralt convinces the elven criminal Iorveth to lead him to the man who framed him for King Foltest's murder under the pretense of a prisoner exchange. When the conversation goes south, Geralt's allies from Foltest's special forces jump in to take Iorveth and the Kingslayer by force. Iorveth asks Geralt to undo his binds and give him his sword back. Geralt's main ally for the remainder of the game is largely affected by whether or not players choose to give it back to him or sucker-punch him and leave him to be captured. | |

Devil May Cry: In Devil May Cry 4 it's "let me keep this sword;" becoming It Was a Gift at the end. But then there is a family resemblance... Too bad Vergil eventually returns to take back what's his, arm and all. In Devil May Cry 5, after Dante's sword Rebellion gets shattered by Urizen, Trish tosses him the Devil Sword Sparda to continue the fight. Not that it does him much good, though; Urizen still flattens him regardless. That said, it does come in handy alongside what's left of Rebellion later on when Dante needs to get a Next Tier Power-Up... |

In the One Piece Arlong park arc, Zoro is two swords short of his usual three, and therefore unable to fight effectively. The gaping hole in his chest doesn't help either, but the POINT is, that when faced with Hachi's six sword style, he says screw it, and asks for his old friends Johnny and Yosaku's swords. They throw them without hesitation, then freak out when Zoro doesn't seem to be looking at the SPINNING SWORDS OF DOOM heading toward him. But that's only because he's being extra badass and catches the sword without looking, and swings immediately into an attack that dodges all six swords and slashes the octo-man's chest. | |

The Bible: Subverted. When David volunteers to fight Goliath, King Saul offers to lend him his own sword and armour. David tries the gear on, concludes that being weighed down like that would just make him a sitting duck for Goliath's sword, and leaves to fight Goliath with just his sling and staff. Played straight in 1 Samuel 21. After David the service of King Saul in a bit of a hurry, one of the first stops he made was to Ahimelek the priest. David asked the priest for a weapon, and the only one available was the sword of Goliath. |

In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Ganon knocks the Master Sword out of Link's hand during the final battle, and Zelda uses magic to hold Ganon back so that Link can retrieve it. Can be a potential subversion if you did the trader's quest and obtained the Biggoron Sword. Ganon knocks the Master Sword out of Link's hand, but there's nothing stopping him from whipping that out right after. You can also use the Megaton Hammer during this part. However, while the Hammer/Biggoron's Sword will do damage to the boss, only the Master Sword can kill him, leading to a great many to whack on Ganon for a ridiculously long time with the Biggoron's sword, wondering why the hell he wouldn't die, only to fall over dead directly after looking at the Master Sword. | |

Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger lend each other weapons all the time, but episode 4 takes this up to a whole other level. When Ahim finally comes to understand Joe's desire to take out the Monster of the Week by himself, she shows it by lending him her cutlass so he can use the two sword style he's been practicing. When this turns out to be insufficient, the other three rangers throw him their swords as well. A decade later, Ahim would do the same thing to Flint as Twokaiser in a Crossover special mostly because Flint who usually has no transformation but borrowed her brother's Twokaiser suit but ONLY the suit did not have Twokaiser's weapon or anything else and was unable to injure the monster much unarmed. |

In The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, there is a quest where you visit the shrines of Vivec's virtues. One requires you to reenact a moment when Vivec displayed his courtesy by giving a silver longsword to a Daedra Lord. The other actor in this is a dremora who views the entire thing as demeaning and tedious. He has a chest full of the swords next to him, showing that he has to do this often. He doesn't mind if you take one from the chest and give it to him instead of one brought from the outside. | |

In Die Walkure, Siegmund is alone in the house of his enemy (who has promised to kill him in the morning) and prays for the sword his father promised him in time of need. Soon after he learns that the sword has been waiting for him there for years (his father, really the god Wotan, had left it there and then manipulated him into the situation where he'd need it, ask for it, and find it). Similarly, in Glinka's Ruslan and Ludmila, Ruslan finds himself alone on an ancient battlefield and prays to the god Perun for the sword he needs to defeat the villain Chernomor. (And the noise of his prayer draws the attention of a giant severed head...which, once he defeats it, has the needed sword under it.) |

In Deus Ex, Gunther Hermann asks for a weapon after being rescued in the first mission. Whether or not you give him one affects his attitude towards you in the earlier missions. Interestingly, you can even give him just a knife and it will be enough for him to get the job done. Later in the game, Gilbert Renton also asks for a gun to take out the gangster Jojo Fine by himself, and again, the decision to give him one or not has some (minor) effect on the plot. | |

Star Wars Rebels: In "Legacy of Mandalore", Ezra tosses Sabine his lightsaber when they see Gar Saxon sneaking up on Sabine's mother with the Darksaber. Sabine proceeds to defeat Saxon in the ensuing duel. If you're wondering why Ezra didn't just deal with Saxon himself, Mandalorians and Jedi have traditionally been enemies for a long time. And, also, given that Sabine's been estranged from her family for a long time, it's more meaningful if Sabine does it. Finally, the ensuing duel proves to her family that she's worthy of the Darksaber. | |

Happens in Quest for Glory II: Trial By Fire for Fighter class heroes. Though the Hero can destroy the Earth Elemental via other means (if you can use magic or buy flaming powder), if he aims for Paladin, he can ask Rakeesh for his flaming Cool Sword for the fight (since he can't fight it himself, being injured; and since a mundane sword won't hurt the thing), and then have A Taste of Power of what it is to wield a Paladin sword. Rendered even more awesome in the game ending, if the Hero actually accumulates enough honorable deeds for Rakeesh to stand witness for the Hero, and bestow him the title of Paladin along with the Cool Sword, combining it with It Was a Gift. | |

Transformers (2019): A variation occurs when Dai Atlas rewakens from immersance (a process by which a Cybertronian can slowly and peacefully merge back into Cybertron after they feel that they've lived long enough) after some children attempt to summon him. He tells his old friend Speeder that he no longer wishes to fight when the latter offers him his old sword and says that the sword belongs to Speeder now, but later when the Insecticon swarm threatens a group of organic refugees, he's roused to action and tells Speeder "bring me my sword." | |

The Ghost and the Darkness One problem with this trope is shown when Patterson accepts a rifle from someone else that he hasn't tested himself; it misfires right when he has one of the man-eating lions in his sights. A justified version in the climax. Patterson (who is unarmed) and Samuel (who has a double-barreled rifle) climb separate trees to escape the pursuing lion, which then starts climbing after Patterson. Samuel can't shoot it because the lion is shielded by the tree trunk, so he throws the rifle to Patterson. The rifle bounces off a branch and falls to the ground, so Patterson leaps down after it, grabbing the rifle Just in Time to shoot the lion. |

After Sugou has been stripped of his Killer Game Master powers and is no longer a Virtual-Reality Warper, Kirito says although Sugou doesn't deserve it, he is willing to face him in a fair duel, and passes Sugou Excalibur, the mightiest sword in the game. Even with Excalibur, Sugou doesn't stand a chance since he had been coasting on his Game Master powers and doesn't know how to fight. | |

In the Dora Wilk Series, it happens twice: In Soul Thief, when Joshua senses that Dora and Miron are in danger, he borrows his grandpa's (Archangel Michael's) Infinity +1 Sword. He presumably returns it later. In Winner Takes It All the angel of death lends Dora his sword when she's about to face Trial by Combat. It's just a normal sword, though. |

In the anime adaptation of Tales of the Abyss, Luke throws Asch his sword after having defeated him in a duel and retrieved the Sword of Lorelei from him so Asch can pull a You Shall Not Pass! against the Big Bad's mooks while Luke escapes. The same scene in the original video game did not include that detail, which in the end it doesn't matter — both the original and adaptation sees Asch die in the process. | |
