In 1536, Scottish clansman Connor MacLeod is mortally wounded in battle by the Kurgan. Miraculously, his wounds heal. He settles in a remote spot as a blacksmith, marrying a warm-hearted farm girl. Five years later, he's sought out by Ramirez, who teaches him that they, like the Kurgan, are immortals, who can die only by decapitation, fated to duel down the ages to a mysterious distant time called the Gathering. MacLeod wants no part of this, but cannot escape his destiny. This was the beginning of the Highlander. Duncan is tributed with this remarkable sword. This sword boasts a faux Ivory handle and a 28 1/2” 440 stainless steel blade with an artificial temper line and gold coloured cast metal tsuba and matching gold scabbard hardware.
