Scottish Claymore - Black Handle

Mainstay of the Highland warriors of the late 15th and 16th centuries, the Claymore sword had a uniquely styled hilt that sets it apart from other great swords of the period. Typically of longsword length, this versatile weapon could deliver great sweeping slashes or powerful thrusts. Classic in its design, with distinctive sloping quillons terminating in quatrefoils and a high-collared quillon block with langets following the blade fuller.

This Kingston Arms Scottish Claymore is a refined version of this popular and distinguishable sword. Many reproductions of the Scottish Claymore tend to be bulky, clunky, and out of balance compared to originals. The slim grip of the Claymore is covered in black leather. The pommel is designed to be consistent with historical pieces. The blade thickness at the guard is  5.3mm, and the thickness at the tip is 4.5mm.
