I'm having a hard time deciding what Link's shield would be able to block.
Technically, Link's shield would be made out of a sturdy steel, which means that it would be good at blocking powerful slashing and overwhelming crushing attacks (boulders), but what about strong piercing attacks?
I have no doubt that Link's Hylian Shield is durable, but the question is, how durable? Can it protect him from bullets? What about HM's energy bullets? What about plasma, lasers, or explosions? What about hypersonic rounds? What about high-velocity Titanium spikes?
Yes, half the stuff I mentioned are weapons belonging to other Characters, but it's only hypothetical and to show that there are a lot of things that Link's shield has not blocked before. It's durable, but in the end, it's just a store-bought shield, a cheap knockoff of the original, legendary Hylian Shield.
The SS Master Sword is not really supposed to be in OoT, but it is the one and only Master Sword. It could be that Link eventually found out about it's other abilities, so it makes sense. I'm okay with that because it's the one and only Master Sword. I don't really think it's magic would fade away after a generation or two (probably more.).
