Greatswords Around The World Part 03: Scottish Twohanded Swords

Let's talk about the Claytdalath! In this episode I will talk about how a scottish greatsword like the highlander-, lowlander- and clamshell "claymore" is built, how people fought with them and some nice facts. With german blades from Solingen and Passau, which were famous for their blades for knifes and zweihanders, it is no wonder why people also called them slaughterswords like the german schlachtschwert.
