Fire and Steel - Practice Scottish Claymore Sword (High Density Foam)

Background of Scottish Claymores

The Scottish claymore, originating in the late medieval period, is a distinctive two-handed sword renowned for its size and effectiveness in battle. Characterized by a long, straight double-edged blade, the claymore was primarily wielded with both hands, offering formidable reach and striking power. It played a crucial role in Scotland's history, particularly during the Wars of Independence against England in the 13th and 14th centuries.

Beyond its martial utility, the claymore symbolized Scottish national identity and resistance to foreign domination. It became synonymous with the Highland clans and their fierce independence, often featuring in iconic moments such as the Battle of Stirling Bridge and the Battle of Bannockburn. The claymore's design evolved over time, reflecting advancements in metallurgy and warfare techniques, yet its legacy as a symbol of Scottish valor and defiance remains deeply rooted in history and popular culture.
