Behind the scenes
Despite its name, the Claymore presented in Assassin's Creed: Unity bears more resemblance to the German zweihänder than a true claymore, as it lacks the forward-sloping quillons terminating in quatrefoils and instead has a flat crossguard and the secondary grip called a ricasso typical of the German sword.
