The basket hilt sword is one of the best symbols of the Scottish warriors. The swords came into existence during the 17th century. The basket hilt of the sword offered a practical solution to a broad sword with full protection of the hands.

Typically the sword was accompanied with a dirk in the other hand, making the Scotsman a deadly opponent.
