How to unfuse items in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - The easy way

The quickest and easiest way to unfuse items in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is to destroy the fused material. Here is what you need to do:
- Press the + button to get to the items menu.
- Then press L or R to scroll over to the "Weapons" section.
- Select the fused weapon or tool you want to separate.
- Next, select "Destroyed fused material."
And that's it! You'll now have the original unfused item back, and the thing you combined it with is gone.
It's a pain to get rid of the combined item with this route, but it is the most accessible, especially at the beginning of Link's journey. That being said, there is a way to get the fused item to separate without losing any resources.
Unfusing items in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom without damaging them

To unfuse items without losing any of your resources, head to Tarrey Town, which is located northeast of the Central Hyrule area. It will take you quite a while to get to Tarrey Town on foot, so we'd suggest you prioritise finding a horse to help you get there.
Now, you want to find a kid Goron Pelison with a big yellow helmet. He's next to the market store. He will ask if you want to break down your items or not. Once you select "Break it down," the handy Pelison will lay the two separated items on a mat nearby, but it will come at the cost of 20 Rupees.
