Our expert's notes

Duncan MacLeod’s (Adrian Paul) hero sword and scabbard from the TV series Highlander. Duncan MacLeod used his sword throughout his tireless crusade against the evil Immortals.

This sword is a hero version, used in close-up shots for which the detail of his katana needed to be on display.

The blade is made of steel with a tempered hamon line along the blade edge. The sword is dressed in traditional Japanese fashion, with a machined tsuba handguard and habaki, which provides a seal while the sword is sheathed. A brass-coloured collar secures the resin dragon’s-head grip, which is finished to replicate the appearance of ivory. The black scabbard is made of aluminium with a plastic grommet at the opening and black thread wrapped around the top to secure it to a belt.

The collars of the swords used in Season 3 were painted so as to match a different sword used in Seasons 1 and 2, with the detailing on this particular sword indicating its use in Seasons 4, 5 and 6.

The elegant weapon is accompanied by two documents from the on-set armourer confirming and detailing its history, and an additional letter from the producer of the series confirming its provenance. The sword is in excellent production-used condition, with the scabbard displaying light scratches and chips. Dimensions (sheathed): 107 cm x 8 cm x 8 cm (42” x 3” x 3”)
