And I want to know how The Kurgan in the original Highlander can have a sword with a blade in two sections that fit together with a "snick" to become a seamless weapon (not to mention being as strong as a regular sword blade ). 
In other words, Hollywood often goes with what is cool looking rather than what is real*
