(Claid causes mini-crit and crit boost to kick in later than the other swords, I've just tested this (I'm not the only one, either. Check the discussions page). The visuals on the sword are not in sync, but the charge meter color is. Bug?) |

The Claidheamh Mòr (/'kʰlɪʝɛv moːɾ/ cly-uv more), or (/'kʰlɪʝɛu moːɾ/ cly-eau more) is a community-created melee weapon for the Demoman. It is a Zweihänder augmented with a crossguard with side rings and a green and team-colored tartan wrapped around the grip. The blade is splattered with blood.
Similar to the Eyelander, this weapon has a large melee range and cannot roll for random critical hits. However, the Claidheamh Mòr only decreases its wielder's health by 15. It also will not collect heads from decapitated victims, and as such, killing enemies with the Claidheamh Mòr will not increase health or speed. When equipped with the Chargin' Targe, Splendid Screen or Tide Turner, the sword will allow the Demoman to charge for an additional 0.5 seconds, effectively increasing the length and duration of the charge. However, increases the length of time needed while charging before scoring mini-crits or critical hits. Additionally, killing an enemy with this weapon while charging will make the player regain 25% of lost charge.
Taunting with the Claidheamh Mòr equipped will perform the Decapitation kill taunt.
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.

Trivia
- Claidheamh Mòr is the Scottish Gaelic form of Claymore, meaning "great/big sword" (literally translated to "sword big").
- Although it is named after the Scottish Claymore sword, it appears to be more closely modeled after a Swiss or German Zweihänder with parrierhaken guards above the ricasso.
