    Home Depot’s “Braveheart” Claymore Sword Sells Out

    Mary Anne ButlerBy

    Look, we’re all for the average person owning swords. But when Home Depot starts selling two-handed claymores based on Mel Gibson‘s “Braveheart,” we have to start asking some questions. Who thought this was a good idea? Why is this a regular item and not something seasonal from their impressive Halloween collection?

    “Reclaim your FREEDOM from the tyrannical English king with this authentic William Wallace sword. This sword is a replica of the sword William Wallace wielded in the movie Braveheart,” Home Depot’s website says. “The blade is made of polished stainless steel and is double edged. The hilt and pommel are composed of polished metal and the handle is wrapped in leather. The sword comes complete with an authentic rough leather sheath that includes a strap to attach this 40.75 in. sword to your belt.”

    For only $50, you’d be hard-pressed to find a more affordable weapon at your local Renaissance Faire. But also, please patronize your local faire and festival. At present, the sword is marked as backordered.

    If you want to pick up the “Braveheart” 4K for some reason, you can do that on Amazon here.
