The Claymore (from the Scottish Gaelic claidheamh-mòr, meaning “great sword”) is a Scottish variant of the late medieval 2 handed sword. It differed from other longswords of the period in that it usually had forward sloping quillons terminating in quatrefoils. Claymores were in use during constant clan warfare and fights with the English from the 15^th to 17^th century. Claymores did exist as early as the Wars of Scottish Independence although they were smaller and few had the characteristic quatrefoil design. The last time that claymores were seen on the battlefield in any significant number was the Battle of Killiecrankie in 1689.

Our Two Handed Scottish Claymore has a hand-forged high carbon steel blade topped with solid steel hilt fittings and a stained real wood grip. This sword has a blunt blade and is designed for display only.

The claymore (from Gaelic claideamh-mor, great sword) was a Celtic two-handed sword that was usually 150cm 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.
