The Claidheamh Mòr is a melee weapon for the Demoman. It is a Template:W similar to the Eyelander that has a crossguard with side rings, a red/blue and green Template:W wrapped around the grip and a blood-spattered blade. Like the Eyelander, the Claidheamh Mòr also has a large melee range and cannot roll for random Critical hits. Unlike the Eyelander, however, the Claidheamh Mòr only imposes a -15 to max health on its wielder instead of the Eyelander's -25. It also will not collect heads from decapitated victims, and as such, killing enemies with the Claidheamh Mòr will not increase the damage potential of the Targe Bash when using the Chargin' Targe. When equipped with the Chargin' Targe, the Claidheamh Mòr will allow the Demoman to charge for an additional 0.5 seconds.
The weapon was originally created for the Fancy vs. Nasty Update as a replacement for the Eyelander and has since been officially added to the game.
