Mainstay of the Highland warriors during the late 15th and 16th centuries, the Claymore sword had a uniquely styled hilt, which set it apart from other great swords of the period. Typical 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.
CAS proudly presents the Kingston Arms Scottish Claymore in this refined version of the popular and distinguishable sword. Many reproductions of the Scottish Claymore tend to be bulky, clunky and out of balance compared to the originals. The slim grip of the Claymore is leather-covered. The pommel of this Kingston Arms Scottish Claymore is in proportion and design, more consistent with historical pieces.
