Fantasy Weapons Scrutinized: Highlander - Kurgan sword 

FWS - episode 03
Playlist for the series: • Over-Thinking Fantasy ...
The original Highlander (1986) film featured a particularly ludicrous sword, used by the Kurgan. Whoever designed it clearly didn't give a damn about functionality... in the motel scene, before Candy appears, the Kurgan just sticks the individual pieces together, including the two parts of the blade!
Sure, it's just entertainment. But that sword is ridiculous enough to rant about it, thus making more entertainment. Geek talk for the win! :)
Why not fight with an over-sized carpet knife? You know, the type of blade that intentionally allows you to snap off parts of the blade? Might as well.
