There is a monument to William Wallace and his claymore sword is there.
My bottom.
The Wallace monument at Abbey Craig houses a sword that is reputed to have been used by Wallace at the battles of Stirling Bridge, and Falkirk. It is unlikely that it is genuine, it appears to be a processional sword from the 15th or 16th century, It may be made up from pieces of several words some or all of which could date from the Wallace period.
The sword attributed to Wallace on display in the Wallace Monument in Stirling is 163 cm in overall length, with a blade of 132cm.Note that it is exceptionally unlikely that the sword was ever even touched by Wallace; The style of sword is very easily identified as one from the second half of the 16th century, not the late 13th century. Furthermore, it was not attributed to Wallace untill 1803. Although there are records of a sword attributed to Wallace from the early 17th century, we have no identification of whether that was the sword now attributed to Wallace.There is however a very slight possibility that part of the blade of the Wallace sword, (which has been welded together from several broken peices) is of older origin, in which case it may be that part of the blade was from a 13th century weapon, which could have been associated with Wallace - but any metalurgical analysis which could prove the origin of the blade is unlikely to ever take place, and even if it is, it is impossible that any association could be proven.Original AnswerWilliam Wallace's sword, at Stirling Castle is 2 metres long

A heavy sword could cut through light armor if it was skillfully used. Glancing blows, light swords, or heavy armor made the sword fairly useless.

Yes. It was Bill.
William Wallace wasn't in Braveheart. Wallace died in 1305. He was played by actor Mel Gibson. The sword was a re-creation of a Claymore.
