You can unlock Ultima Blade by fully upgrading Engine Blade.

After completing the first chapter you can speak with Cid and start "Cid Sophiar, Master Mechanic" quest. This will allow you to upgrade some of the weapons in the game (upgradable ones have a "+" right next to their name). Aside from the weapon, you will also need to collect an item required for the upgrade process. Additionally, Cid will ask for some time to complete the work - completing one or two quests/hunts should be enough for him to be done.
