Highlander: The Sword

*Attention Vendors*
If you do not wish to be represented on this site, or I have mistakenly left you out, please E-Mail me.


This sword came out the first year of Highlander: The Series. This sword has been falsely advertised as Connor MacLeods sword, and Duncan MacLeods sword. I have also seen it advertised as Highlander: The Sword, and that is what I choose to refer to it as. For many years it has been the only licensed and official sword (until Connors came out this year). I do not dislike the sword (as many people claim to) but I do not like the way it is constantly mis-represented.

Highlander: The Sword
This sword is made by Marto. It is supposed to be a combination of Duncans Katana and Connors Katana (I honestly don't see it).
