{{nihongo|'''Synch Blade'''|シンクロブレード|Shinkuro Burēdo|lit. "Synchro Blade"}} is an ability that appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. It allows the user to summon a second [[Keyblade]] during battle. So far, the only characters to use this are [[Roxas]], who can use this ability to wield his twin Keyblades [[Oathkeeper & Oblivion]], and [[Sora]] while in [[Valor Form]], [[Master Form]], and [[Final Form]] as well as [[Double Form]].
