The Circle of Life (サークルオブライフ Sākuru obu Raifu ) Keyblade is from Kingdom Hearts II. In a way, it almost replaces the Jungle King from Kingdom Hearts, except the Circle of Life is much stronger at the point in the game it is obtained than the Jungle King was.
Design
It looks like the Keyblade is made of wood, possibly symbolizing the fact that it is received from the Pride Lands. The chain of the Keychain is a vine, rather than metal links. The guard and Keychain is a lion head, specifically the head of Simba as drawn by Rafiki in the movie The Lion King. Its name comes from the plot device, as well as a song, from the first Lion King, "The Circle of Life".
The Circle of Life Keyblade encompasses the environment that is the Pride Lands. The sides of the guard are two large fangs that curve downward and do not connect to the pommel of the handle. The top of the guard and Keychain are both lion heads, specifically the head of Simba as drawn by Rafiki. The blade is a short wooden shaft that extends upwards a little, then curves into a backwards “C.” The “C” is wrapped in white cloth strips and wooden spikes protrude from the wrappings which serve as the teeth of the key. The chain of the Keychain is actually a vine, rather than metal links.
