The claymore (from Gaelic claideamh-mor, great sword) was a Celtic two-handed sword that was usually 150 cm or longer. This length made it very difficult for opponents to approach. The claymore often had a long, leather-covered ricasso, so that the warrior could place both hands on the blade when his enemy came close. The earliest claymores were used in the 16th century, the latest in the 18th century.
