The complete Soul Edge
This is the evil sword Soul Edge after recovering all of its fragments, including Soul Calibur, and becoming whole once more. At this point, due to its power now became extreme, not even Soul Calibur herself could stand against him.
The complete form of the sword has three appearances Soul series so far. In Soulcalibur II, when wielded by Nightmare, it still holds the vague shape of its standard zweihander appearance, but appears to be made entirely out of organic material, with teeth, flesh and an abundance of eyes covering its entire surface, making it the most grotesque version yet in the series. In Soulcalibur III, it lacks the signature eye, and is a brown sword with horns and teeth. This version is used by Night Terror and later appears as Nightmare's player two weapon in Soulcalibur IV.
In Soulcalibur IV, a nigh-complete Soul Edge appears and it is used by Nightmare as his primary weapon, and looks more like a traditional sword than Soul Edge had in some time. This version of the sword is complete in almost all sense, other than that it lacks Soul Calibur herself.

Trivia[]
- Although the cases of Talim and Link wielding the completed Soul Edge in Soulcalibur II appears out of character, as these characters are known to have a pure heart suitable for using Soul Calibur instead (which is unlockable for the former), the evil weapon can technically be held by anyone who has a strong enough will.
