The claymore is a large, two-handed Scottish sword known for its distinctive design and battlefield power. Typically measuring around 55 inches, it features a broad, double-edged blade and a crossguard with downward-sloping arms ending in quatrefoils. Used primarily between the 15th and 17th centuries, it offered powerful slashing capabilities. The claymore symbolized Highland warrior strength and remains an iconic representation of medieval Scottish weaponry and heritage.
