Scottish claymore stats...?

[hamishspence]

While wikipedia isn't always accurate, it does mention small hand-and-a-half swords, which could be used one or two handed- and it was only quite late, that ones with a grip big enough to easily fit two hands on, appeared:

Compared to those small ones, a claymore probably does qualify as a small greatsword, rather than a large bastard sword.
