Jacob I (1394-1437). King of Scotland, was crowned in 1424 in Scone. Jacob I decreased the power of the feudal lords after overwhelming the Albany clan , because of the conspiracies against him when he was a child. Under his rule the scotish laws were codified and a system of weights and measures were set. Jacob I , a remarkable poet , was asassinated by Sir Robert Graham in a conspiracy. For his bravery in the battle and "strong hand" for ruling his country, Jacob I was called "the Lion of Scotland". Marto , a fine spanish sword manufacturer located in Toledo , Spain , presents this historically accurate display version of the Jacob I , "Lion of Scotland" claymore sword.
