| | '''Synch Blade''' is an ability which allows a [[Keyblade]] wielder to use two Keyblades at once during battle. It is unknown whether in the [[Kingdom Hearts]] series if there are any characters that are able to equip this ability. So far, only [[Roxas]] is able to use this ability to summon his two Keyblades, the [[Oblivion]] and the [[Oathkeeper]] in battle, and [[Sora]] while in [[Valor Form]], [[Master Form]], and [[Final Form]]. |

| ==Story==
| | Sora appears to be able to use Synch Blade during the final battle with [[Xemnas]] without using any drives. |

| |
| Roxas can use two Keyblades at once because he has both Sora and [[Ventus]]'s Keyblades, due to Ventus's heart remaining within him when Sora became a Heartless.<ref>[[Kingdom Hearts Ultimania|'''''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' Ultimania''']], '''Interviewer:''' "Is it possible that Roxas has a heart?" / '''Tetsuya Nomura:''' "It is thought that it could be Ventus’ heart... As was said in Q1, he has taken a lot of himself from Ventus. But perhaps when Sora and Roxas were separated, Ventus’ heart stayed in Roxas?"

As Roxas is a part of Sora, he also can use two. In ''Days'', Roxas awakened his ability to dual wield after fighting Xion. In ''KHII'', once Sora absorbs him, he can also dual-wield."
