Claymore

The Claymore was a heavy weapon acquired by the French Assassin Arno Dorian during the 18th century. A large sword brought to France by Scottish mercenaries, it was given to Arno by Police Minister Charles Cochon de Lapparent as a reward for solving the murder of a Deputy of the National Assembly.[1]

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.
