Weapon

This form's Arms Weapon is the Hinawadaidai-DJ-Ju and Kachidoki Bata. The Hinawadaidai-DJ-Ju can combine with the Musou Saber for the stronger Taiken Mode (大剣モード, Taiken Mōdo, lit. "Great Sword Mode"), making the Great Orange Blade (大橙刃 (ダイダイジン), Daidaijin) edge piece appear on the back of what would be the Matchlock Grip (火縄グリップ, Hinawa Gurippu).

The Hinawadaidai-DJ-Ju Taiken Mode can also combine with the Daidaimaru to create the even stronger Sojinto Mode (双刃刀モード, Sōjintō Mōdo, lit."Double-Blade Sword Mode"), though this was never shown on-screen and thus is exclusive to the toyline. There is a possible unnamed and unused combination with the Hinawadaidai-DJ-Ju Taiken Mode and the Pine Iron, thus making another toy-exclusive combination.

The Kachidoki Bata (カチドキ旗（バタ）, lit. "Triumph Flags") are a pair of sashimono possessed by Kamen Rider Gaim and Kamen Rider Zangetsu in Kachidoki Arms. They are part of the Kachidoki Armor Part and feature Gaim and Zangetsu's respective symbols. While they can be detached and wielded as weapons, they are normally stored on the Gaim and Zangetsu's back.
